I took the tour in Feb 2012 and our guide was named Eder. Eder was very knowledgeable and kind. The tour consisted of the following; 1. A visit to Tulum 2. Swimming with snorkels and masks at the Grand Cenote (Very cool) 3. Visit to a pristine beach where Eder and his partner made us lunch (Awesome Guac and Salsa)... More

Our Coba Treasures tour was a highlight of our trip. We were met at our hotel on time by our knowledgeable guide Eder and our driver Omar, and a group of four. On the way to Coba, Eder gave us an interesting and informative presentation (with illustrations even!) of the history of the area, its people, and what we were... More

The wife and I took a tour to Tulum with Yukatreks. Our guide, Eder, and our driver Juan, are two great people and made our trip! Eder is very knowledgeable and patient. His knowledge of this area and of Mayan culture and language is very good. After being picked up from the hotel, we immediately went to the Tulum ruins.... More

Note: This is not really an attraction but a local tour company. We have known Mitch who runs YucaTreks now for over 5 years and have gone on a number of tours with him. Suffice to say we won't go with anyone else. The personal and professional touches he adds to our tours alway seem to make them very enjoyable... More

We used Yuca Treks for a tour of Chichen Itza and of Tulum and we got way, way more than a tour! They arrived at the resort on time (unlike the large tour buses) and were so friendly and accomodating. We got an amazing tour of the mayan sites, but also got local wisdom, safe local food and a chance... More

We had a great time on this tour. The guide Mitch was quite hospitable and easy going, full of information, and has this tour perfected. We met the group in Playa around 7 am and were finished around 7pm. While it was a day long tour, it was full of fun. First we drove to Chichen Itza to do our... More

My husband and I went on two tours with YucaTreks, one was the Tulum and Beyond tour with Mitch and the other to Chichenitza with Eder. We had a wonderful time and were very satisfied with both tours. We will return with the kids. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience.. More

We had a great day on the Tulum and beyond tour. Elias, our guide for the cenote snorkeling, zip line and repelling was wonderful. He was so encouraging and helpful. Our guided tour of Tulum was also terrific. The guide was well informed and we also had free time to wander around by ourselves. This was well worth the money... More

This trip was awesome. Our guide was Eder and he was very informative. Our group was small - only 10 people on the tour, When we got back to our hotel we heard other guests complaining about their tours being too large, non-informative and arriving late in the day that it was unbearably hot. I told them about our tour... More
