A wonderful experience. The only thing I would recommend is that, before booking the tour, you check with the company to see if the guide will be speaking Spanish or English, because in my case, the group was made up entirely of foreigners, but I didn’t have a problem with that since I also speak English. that said, it was a really fun time hanging out with people from other countries and learning about their cultures and beliefs, and I made a lot of friends. Believe me, the visit to Chichén Itzá was absolutely breathtaking—the guide was super nice, super friendly, and super cheerful, just like the catamaran and the crew. They included a really great snorkeling activity that we did, literally right in the middle of the sea, and it was an experience that I truly hold very close to my heart. I’m so grateful to Headout for this, and I 100% recommend it. I booked it with drop-off; I don’t know how it works with pickup, but from what I understand, the company takes care of everything. You can trust this tour because, honestly, I didn’t have a single bad experience—except that I had to pay for something that was already included, but they immediately refunded it to my account. So they’re super attentive to everything—a perfect 10 out of 10.
