It was a long day, but getting away from the resort and seeing the real Mexico was a priceless experience.

Acabamos de llegar de una excursión a Chichén Itzá, cenote Ik-kil y Valladolid, ha sido todo perfecto, además de que el día ha estado un poco nublado y la temperatura ha sido buena. Lo mejor sin duda el guía, Antonio, muy agradable y simpático, y con toda la información posible sobre el tema, es un auténtica enciclopedia, se nota que le gusta lo que hace y te transmite la historia de su pueblo con cariño y muchísimos datos, culturales y científicos, un verdadero experto. Os dejo una foto espectacular de Chichén Itzá, impresionante.

Contraté la excursión por WhatsApp a través de la página excursionesrivieramaya.es, me gustó porque eran grupos reducidos, y la verdad es que fue un acierto. Fuimos solo 8 personas. Los guías estupendos, tanto Carlos, que estuvo con el grupo de habla inglesa (eran 6), como Ariann Soriano, que fue mi guía y la de mi hijo. Se nota que le apasiona su trabajo y tiene muchos conocimientos sobre el tema. Al ser pocos hicimos todo temprano y evitamos los momentos de más gente, tanto en Chichen Itza como en el cenote. La recogida en nuestro hotel además fue muy puntual y nos trajeron desayuno (zumo, galletas y plátano). No tuvimos que pagar nada por adelantado, sino en el mismo momento.

Contraté la salida para el 24 abril con Andrés de la Mora por indicación de un compañero de despacho y la elección no pudo ser MEJOR. Increíble la experiencia pese a ser la segunda vez que visitaba Chichen Itza y Valladolid. Por anulaciones de otras personas al final la excursión estaba integrada por solo dos parejas y el guía, de ahí que el desplazamiento se hiciese en un turismo. Andrés de la Mora nos puso en manos de uno de sus empleados, PEPE, que además de ser un magnífico conductor nos hizo el viaje desde Grand Palladium Colonial hasta la zona arqueológica de los más amena y divertida. Una vez en Chichen Itza nuestro guía fue RENÉ, que hizo una gran demostración de su conocimiento de la civilización maya y nos permitió conocer detalles de esa civilización que desconocíamos pese a ser esta nuestra segunda visita al lugar. Llegamos recién abriendo y así evitamos las horas de mayor masificación y las horas centrales de calor y sol. Para cuando aquello empezó a ponerse hasta los topes nosotros ya estábamos saliendo rumbo al cenote Ikkil que es una maravilla de la naturaleza. Tras un baño reparador nos pegamos una comida típica mexicana en el mismo buffet del Cenote destacando la "Cochinita al Pibil", jamás la había comido tan buena. Pedazo de comida en calidad y cantidad. Inmejorable. Posteriormente terminamos la excursión con una parada en la ciudad colonial de Valladolid y más concretamente en la plaza frente a la Iglesia de San Servacio que, desgraciadamente, no pudimos visitar pues en la actualidad por estar en obras solo se abre al momento del oficio religioso. Animo a todo aquel que quiera conocer esta parte de la rivera maya que contacte con Andrés de la Mora (su empresa se llama Cóndor) se encarga de la compra de entradas en Chichen Itza y en el Cenote Ikkil y nosotros sólo tenemos que disfrutar de la experiencia y de un día realmente maravilloso.

Very happy with our tour. It did entail a very early start (5 am), but this was necessary to ensure we reached Chichenitza by early morning-the best time to see ot before the temperature got too high. All credit to our driver, Jorge who arrived bang on time and was polite and helpful throughout the trip. Our guide, Jesus was knowledgeable and entertaining and worked hard, we felt, to deliver an enjoyable experience to his clients. Highlights of the trip were the temple ruins, of course, but also the visit to the cenote-the memory of swimming in that deep pool, with thecsunlightcl streaming down through the trees and illuminating the surface of the water will stay with me for a long time. Overall no hesitation to recommend this tour.

Un viaje maravilloso a un lugar único y especial, con baño en el cenote con comida y visita a Valladolid para pasear por su centro histórico. Gran atención de Yordi, Jesús y Manuel (el Brad Pitt Maya) y muy buena planificación, no pierden detalle.
