Erhard's professionalism was evident from first contact. He replied quickly and designed an itinerary that perfectly suited my interests. In 6 days we covered 1,000 miles and (owing to Erhard's excellent planning) had plenty of time at every destination: Chichen Itza, beautiful colonial cities, great local food, the jungle ruins at Calakmul, and much more, all expertly explained by Erhard. I cannot imagine a better traveling companion and feel that I now have a friend in Mexico. Very highly recommended!

I have traveled a lot of places and gone on a lot of tours, this was easily the best tour I've ever been on and I wish more people knew about it! I experienced and learned so much. Kayaking the Rio Hondo was absolutely magical - and being able to be so up close and personal with such beautiful ruins...it was simply unlike anything I've experienced in Mexico so far. Selene also gave great recommendations for me to spend a day in Chetumal (I was spending the week in Bacalar). It is 100% worth spending a day (or two or three) with Latitud Maya. You will not regret it!

The Guide Tzamn is one of the best guides I‘ve ever had around the world so far! I was travelling a lot and my experience with Mextisoul was one of the best! Very competent, deep knowledge about various cultures which impressed me a lot. Very reliable, helpful and kind! It was a great experience to travel 3 days though Yucatan with Tzamn, the owner of Mextisoul... I really recommend to book a trip! It‘s worth the money! I was/am very satisfied! Would definitely book again when next time in Yucatan!???? (btw. I was travelling there in May 2019, but could not select that)
