Guide shared in Chichen Itza, small groups

Free cancellation available
Up to 24 hours before the start time
Duration: 2 hours
Service animals welcome

Join a small group of explorers to visit Chichen Itza with a certified native guide who specialises in Mayan history, architecture and culture. The group will enter the archaeological zone as soon as it opens to avoid the intense heat and the largest crowds. Along the guided route, you will hear the story behind the Temple of Kukulcán and learn what makes it regarded as one of the Wonders of the World.

After the guided portion, you will have free time to continue exploring the site at your own pace. You may want to spend that time at the Astronomical Observatory and take in the wider layout of the complex as you move through the ruins. The experience is designed to combine an expert-led introduction with independent exploration, giving you both context and time to soak up Chichen Itza.
