Private Tours to Chichen-Itza Mexico and area

Click here to see a video of our Private Tour to Chichen-Itza

 

We are the only company offering as many options for your family to enjoy a day in the Mayan world. I have personally taken this tour with my wife Claudia and our 2 children Van (6) and Melissa (almost 2) We swam in the blue waters of the Ik Kil cenote, climbed both the pyramids in Chichen-Itza and Ek Balam. (You can no longer climb the ruins at Chichen Itza)

Our private tours will save you about 3 hrs of extra time being spent on the bus and waiting in line. Please see the slide show and video to get a little better idea. Also, if you have heard about something that you want to see, just ask us. We will be happy to arrange it for you.

Private Chichen Itza Tour includes:

  • Round trip air-conditioned transportation exclusively for your group
  • English speaking driver, entrance fee to Chichen-Itza and toll road fees
  • DOES NOT include guide in Chichen-Itza (approx $60 USD) or a tip to the driver if warranted
  • ITINERARY: It is a 2 ½ hour ride there. I suggest a 7 - 10 am departure (tour buses arrive around 12 noon and for me I would leave early at 7 or 8). Stay there for 2.5 - 3 hrs. Walk in the town, buy a few gifts, have lunch at the Mayaland hotel or in the town of Chichen-Itza, head back to Cancun early or go to Valladolid to see a small town. It is a great place to take a few photos in the park. It is up to you! (You get the vehicle for the length of your tour.)
  • OPTION:If you want to see the light & sound show that starts at 7 pm you must depart at 11am or 12 noon. This gives you almost 3 hrs in the ruins. You can enjoy dinner and/or drinks at the Mayaland hotel or walk around the town. Return for the 7 pm show, head back around 8:30pm and arrive into Cancun at 11 pm.

Private Chichen Itza w/Lunch & Cenote Ik Kil includes:

  • The same as above plus a buffet lunch (no drinks) and entrance into Cenote Ik Kil
  • You should not depart later than 8:30am or you will be rushed
  • Buffet includes Tossed and Russian salads, rice and beans, grilled fish, chicken in an orange sauce, pork loin done in a classic Mayan sauce, beef tips, fettuccini primavera, fresh fruit, desserts and tea or coffee. Does not include tip or other drinks.

  • The same as above plus entrance fees into Ek Balam (no one in Cancun offers this trip)
  • DOES NOT include guide at Ek Balam (approx $35 for the group)
  • Click here for more information about Ek Balam.
  • ITINERARY: I suggest a 7am departure (no later than 8am ) to arrive at Chichen-Itza at 9:30 before the crowds and heat. Stay there for 2.5 hrs then go to Ik Kil which is minutes away. Jump into the cenote, enjoy the gardens and after sit down and enjoy the buffet. Depart for Ek Balam around 1:30pm and arrive at 2:45pm . Guided tour takes about 1 hr including climbing the ruins. Take a few photos and depart around 4:15pm and arrive into Cancun around 6:00pm. You can easily do this tour faster and return around 5pm if you like.

FAQ:

Can I save a bit by taking a Public Tour with other tourists?
Yes! Click here for "Public" Chichen-Itza Tours

What should we bring?
Walking shoes, a hat, camera, extra t-shirt, sun screen, sunglasses, (swim suit/towel if going to Ik Kil) and a little spending money for shopping. A small federal fee for bringing video cameras.

What kind of vehicle do we get? Does it have seats, insurance?
All vehicles have a/c. If you are less than 4 adults or a family of 4 we use a car and for 4 adults or more we use a van or a suburban. The van holds 10 passengers. ALL passengers must have a seat belt. Therefore if you are 9 adults & 2 children you would need 2 vehicles. Vehicles must have Federal highway insurance & passenger insurance by law. If we are caught without it they take the vehicle. I can't speak for all companies but, the price of insurance is nothing compared to losing your van.

Is there a deposit? What are the cancellation policies?
Yes we need a deposit of 25% and the cancellation policy is 12 noon the day before the trip. WHY? Because we need to book the vehicle for the day. If we wait till 3 pm the day before to cancel the vehicle will have lost out doing services the next day. That is not fair to us or the driver who lives on tips. If cancelled in time a full refund will be issued that day. Cancellation Policy.

Can you really swim in the cenote?
Yes of course. You walk down the stairs and jump in. Even my daughter Melissa (almost 2) came in.

Do we go to a check in area first?
No. You are picked up from your hotel and taken directly on the tour and dropped off at your hotel.

Who do we pay the balance to?
Directly to the driver on the day of the tour in CASH ONLY. If you want to pay more than the 25% down payment today, please go ahead and send me an e-mail letting me know you have.

Can we stay longer in one place if we like?
Yes of course, it is your day!

Why are no drinks included?
We do not want anyone drinking and climbing the pyramids. You can bring water or buy it at many locations on the trip.

Is Chichen Itza, Ik Kil & Ek Balam too much for one day?
You will get a good night sleep afterwards but I found it to be fine.
