Recommendations for good tour operators to Chichen Itza or Uxmal

[djohn554]

There is not an excursion available for our port stop from Ecstasy.

 

Any good recommendations for tour operators to C.I. or Uxmal?

 

OR

 

Can you just hire a driver & van from the port to one of these places.

 

I have checked the internet and Yucantoday.com and haven't found much.

 

Thanks!

Still looking for answers.

 

Does anyone know if you can just hire a driver and cab (or preferably van) from the port and have them drive you to the C.I or Uxmal? Any idea on cost for 4 people?

 

Thanks.

I'm going on a 5 day on Ecstasy in November. Carnival does offer separate excursions to those sites on the 5 day.

 

I've read repeatedly on this forum that it's easy to get a taxi/van after you arrive. Then you can hire a guide on site if you like.

 

We'll be touring Dzib 'cause it's so much closer.

Thanks. Do you pay the local taxi drivers or tour operators in US dollars?

We did the CI tour through Carnival and thought it was kind of a waste. Its suppose to be a 7hr tour, but its 2 hours there by bus, stop 30min to shop and potty break, 2 hours at CI, and then 2 hours bus ride back. The guides were great and the buses were big coaches with A/C, but I think I would have rather spent my time elsewhere.

 

Have fun whatever you decide !!
