What Travelers Say
"After initial small complications about the entries, Samuel was a great guide! He explained everything with passion and is very knowledgeable about the history! We enjoyed the ride with the bike as well and must say it was not crowded at all (morning tour). The tour took longer then expected - mentioning not as complaint but to ensure you plan enough time for this wonderful spot! Gracias / Yum bo’otik Samuel!"

PS you don’t have to walk, includes a bike which we recommend because the walking trail is quite extensive! 👍"
