Mandela and Eric were an absolute pleasure. Mandela was so knowledgeable and kept the tour every interesting. He provided water and was a great photographer for us.
Don’t miss Eli’s tour!!!
Susan_K, Mar 2023
What a fabulous private tour! Eli has an amazing grasp of the history and culture of the Mayan people. He clearly has enormous respect for same. He was thoroughly engaging and able to discuss and answer our questions, which could have been challenging given my husband’s knowledge of world history. Might also mention he is not just a great guide, but a great guide.

Maria_R, Oct 2022
The views, and the energy you feel in this amazing place is truly magical. But without our guide it would have been less fun. Eli our guide was the most knowleageble and amazing. He treated us so well, and taught me soooo much in that short time that i cannot wait to come back on another tour with him as a guide.
