Mayan experience of a lifetime.

We did a 7-day custom Alma’s tour to Chichen-Itza, Mérida, Grand Mayan museum, Valladolid, Ek-Balam, Tulum, Coba, Becan, Bacalar, Calakmul, and Uxmal. It was marvelous! Our custom tour was hosted by our guide, Ricardo Job, a well-educated local Mayan from the area, whose ancestors go back many generations. He was engaging, informative, answered all of our questions thoughtfully and pointed us to scholarly sources. This was an incredible adventure — a must for serious travelers.
