My sister and I took a bird-watching tour with Eco Colors guide Jose Paz. It was a highlight of our trip to the Riviera Maya. Jose took us to two different areas and we saw more than 30 different species. He was an excellent guide and very knowledgeable about all the birds. He recognized them by their songs and could spot them even in the dense trees and shrubs. In the second preserve, he had also arranged a lovely lunch for us, cooked by a delightful woman over a wood fire. Jose's driver joined us and he was also a very likable fellow. It was a great experience and I highly recommend!

I dealt with Pepe for the reservation piece and he was very professional. I traveled with a party of 7 family members. We decided to go with private tours to go at our own pace and have the flexibility of customizing. We took a private tour to Chichen Itza one day and a private tour to Coba and Tulum another day. Manuel was our guide and Jose was the driver and both a pleasure to have. Manuel was extremely knowledgeable.

Such an incredible day of exploring the ruins at Muyil and floating through the mangroves in Sian Ka’an. Salvdor made all of the arrangements for the day, picked us up in an air conditioned van, and provided a wonderful picnic lunch by the water. I would highly recommend Best Maya Tours. Very organized and professional.

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!

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)

10/10 I would do this trip again. My advice would be to go for the 4 hour tour over the 2 hour version because it goes by very quickly. Everyone is unbelievably kind and you taken care of the entire time. If you are looking for a snorkeling trip where you don't have to plan anything, this is the one for you.

My wife and I enjoyed this trip immensely but to be honest, the snorkeling was good but not overly exciting. Plenty of fish to see but because there were about 10 boatloads of people all in the same spot, it got really chaotic and took a lot of the enjoyment out of it. Also, Isla Mujeres was not what I expected... so much to do!!! I highly recommend looking into activities ahead of time as you spend about 2 hours exploring the island.... which I didn't realize when I booked the trip. We stumbled upon renting a go cart (which is about $20 an hour) and drove around .... the best experience and highly recommend doing the same. We stumbled upon Punta Sur and LOVED it!! Pay the $3 a person to go out to the point. There are pathways down to the water and wind in and around the cliffs. Overall, this trip was amazing, the boat crew were fun and easy to interact with.
