"Maya Explorer Tours was amazing from their communication and ability to get us in last minute to our guide Michell who was very informative and fun. Thank you!"

"We had an excellent tour with Maya Explorer Tours. We visited Chichen Itza and Ek Balam and the Cenote Kubiku. Very well organised and our guide was very nice and told us a lot. It was a private tour and more relaxed. It is worth the money. Five stars."

"I had a fantastic trip to Chichen Itza, cenotes, the yellow town of Izamal and a lovely buffet lunch. They arranged hotel pickup for me at 8am and Davide was an excellent guide who took care of me as the only English speaking person in the group. Chichen Itza is really worth the trip. It is beautiful and the stories Davide told about the Mayans were very cool and inspiring. Beware it is super hot, so bring an umbrella, a hat, sunscreen and a spare change of clothes. They will take you to get snacks and water, make sure you get them as lunch is at the end of the day."

How We Collect and Publish Reviews
Are Maya Explorer Tours reviews real?
Yes. Every review on this page is first-party feedback sent to us directly by travelers who booked a tour with Maya Explorer Tours, by WhatsApp, email or on our social pages. We publish them manually with the traveler's own rating and the date they travelled, and every review you can read here is also the review search engines and AI assistants see โ we never show them more reviews than this page shows you. We currently publish 10515 reviews with an average rating of 4.9 out of 5.
How is this page different from the reviews on each tour page?
This page is the company-level record: it shows feedback across every tour we operate, so you can judge Maya Explorer Tours as an operator โ communication, guides, vehicles and punctuality. Each tour page shows only the reviews for that specific itinerary, which is what you want once you have chosen a tour. Use this page to decide who to book with, and the tour page to decide what to book.
Can I ask a question before booking?
Yes. We are a direct local operator in Cancun, not a resale marketplace, so you speak with the team that runs the tour. Message us on WhatsApp with your dates, hotel or pickup area and group size, and we reply with availability, the total price and what is included. There is no payment required to ask.
