Uxmal light and sound show was beautiful. The dancers , the lights, the sound and story telling were amazing. I visited Uxmal summer of 2018 and fell in love with it. We walked through Uxmal during the day and heard the history of it from a guide and waited until night time for the night show. They set up chairs on top of a ruin so you get this beautiful overview of the show. If you are ever in beautiful Yucatán please do take this tour.

They drove us all around (30 min.) to put us on and up close to the wild flamingos. We also got to see a wild gator and springs that pour from the ground. Then a short bus ride (30min) to the pink salt mines. Really cool culture. (By chicken here to take with you ) . Then a 5 min bus ride to the Mayan ruins. It was a really good tour of the history of the mayans. Then they let us walk all around the ruins. We even got to climb them.there was a few cats at the ruins that was really skinny. ( that's why I wished i would have got the chicken from the salt to feed the cats) then we drove back to the start. The beach club was small and the food is just their local good. I loved it some dont. The staff was really nice there . I got a 25 dollar 30 min. Massage. It was nice. The staff does expect a tip but they was worth it. Our tour guide did great. Jorge morano 9991449053 took really good care of us and they made sure we made the boat in plenty of time. Was only at beach about hour and a half before needing to leave.

Enjoyed a wonderful excursion to EkBalam with our two teenage daughters. Josue Cruz (with AllTourNative) was an excellent tour guide! He was very knowledgeable about the Mayan history and culture, and always kept us clearly informed about our tour. I highly recommend this experience!
