Genesis is an outstanding guide!
Ken_Y
, Mar 2022
After an initial snafu with company management (which our guide Genesis helped to resolve), the four of us enjoyed one of the best private tours we have ever taken. Genesis was friendly, informative, and extremely informative. He had prepared a binder that contained many historical photos of Chaccoben and Mayan culture, which greatly enhanced our understanding of the sights we visited. He had a great sense of humor and was flexible to accommodate our interests. Sensing our interest in local fruits, he stopped at a fruit stand and treated us to sweet pineapple and mango slices. Any future traveller wishing to book this tour should definitively request for Genesis' services.
Fabulous Experience! Five stars are not enough!!!!!

Juan Carlos was an outstanding guide! His knowledge of cultural and physical anthropology regarding the Maya was excellent. The privately guided tour allowed us to take our time and ask as many questions as possible. In addition to sharing his knowledge verbally Juan Carlos used numerous charts and photographs to enhance the learning experience.
Great option for cruise excursion

Carlos was an excellent guide and gave a very detailed tour of the site as well as driving us back and forth from the cruise port. We had plenty of time to explore and take pictures as well hear the interesting info Carlos shared. Carlos was very attentive and adjusted pace and route to accommodate my mother, who walks with a cane. Overall, this was a very good trip and well worth the cost. We were expecting it to be a private tour based on the Viator description of a private tour. So I was surprised when Carlos told us there was also a family of 3 on the trip with us. The van held 7 people comfortably and the other 3 people were already at the meeting point when we arrived, so it didn’t delay or inconvenience us at all. I was also surprised when we arrived that entry to the site is not included. We had to pay that in cash when we arrived. It was only $6 per person, so not expensive, but would have been better to be clear about in advance. This trip worked well for our cruise excursion. We had plenty of time to shop and explore the cruise port options after getting back from the tour before getting back on the ship for a late lunch.
Best Excursion in Costa Maya!

This was a private tour for our group of 6. Carlos was just awesome! He is so knowledgeable and had so much information to share. One of our party had issues walking, he was in no rush and slowed down so we could all enjoy the morning. We even saw spider monkeys! I have already recommended this to someone traveling in the area. Great value and great day.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
