  We had a phenomenal tour, in large part to our amazing guide, Fabio, and driver, Jorge. Fabio’s knowledge of history and archeology made the history of Mexico come alive. We were thrilled to try different foods from several regions in the local markets. Fabio has an extensive knowledge of indigenous foods. The opportunity to visit and explore a large number of UNESCO sites and learn of their significance to the history of Mexico and the world was fascinating. If travelers truly want to delve into the history of Mexico, this is the tour for them.

  Marvelus Travel was not so "marvelous" on several occasions but I will first give the pluses: In Cancun, Tulum and Playa del Carmen we could walk to the bus station. We had a good guide for Uxmal & Kabah who picked us up on time. There was a good pizza restaurant right next door to the Hotel Reforma in Merida. The route of the tour was well planned. Now for the minuses: the itinerary was sent Feb. 8th 4 days before the tour when we had already left Canada. The tour radar website had conflicting info re airport pickup in Cancun and we ended up taking a green line overpriced taxi to the hotel.The Tour radar website also says there is a guide for 2 hrs. at Chichen Itza; itinerary says not. Had to pay 100 and 40 pesos to store our luggage at Chichen Itza.The website says our bus left Tulum for Playa del Carmen in the a.m. The itinerary had us leaving 5:45 p.m. so we could enjoy the afternoon at the beach (!?) Needless to say, we changed the time of our bus trip. We had no idea which hotel we were going to until we were at the bus station and when we got to it there was no reservation & no one spoke English: I had to accost 2 women on the street to translate for us. I had to pay for the room with my card so we could leave our luggage and go to Cozumel. When we got back we had received email that I would be reimbursed for the room. A different clerk with no English! I showed my room key and she gave me the money not a credit on my card. Marvellus had told us they had arranged transfer to the airport rather than Cancun; we only had to change the tickets at the station. The clerk at the station charged us the difference despite our explanation! Oh and BTW we had to change rooms in Merida at Hotel Reforma because of mold. If my friend did not have her camera, connector and ipad we would have been up the creek without a paddle. We had no access to a printer for our bus tickets so she took a photo of them from my emails and put them on her ipad. We think more advanced info from Marvelous is needed so people will be better prepared.
