Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Due to unfortunate events Simona was unavailable for our tour. But, she seamlessly arranged for Claudia to take her place. We had a great walking tour of Merida with Claudia. She was friendy, knowledgeable and showed us many places we wouldn't have known about. Do not hesitate to book this tour. Its a great way to become familiar with the current Merida and learn about the past of Merida. "
"We had a wonderful evening with Simona starting at 5:30 pm. Besides about food we learned a lot about Mérida as well. As we did this tour around dinner time the tour fed us more than enough with a nice street dessert as well. Highly recommend Simona, her English (as well as her Spanish) is excellent."
"It was a Great experience with Simona! In 2 hours she showed us the Most important spots in Mérida and she told us lots of interesting and amazing stories about the history and the culture of Yucatan. At the end she showed us a lovely karaoke location, where we passed a great and funny evening!!!! Thanks for all! We recommend you highly ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!!!!!!"
"Simona provided a great tour experience. She was very friendly and knowledgeable about Merida. I highly recommend her."
"A perfect way to kick off our time in Merida. Simona was informative and fun. Full of practical tips for enjoying our time in Merida"
"Claudia was fabulous. Communication before hand was timely and she was right on time to our meet up. She took the time to ask what I wanted from our tour, there really is so much to see in Merida. She crafted the perfect morning, taking into account what I asked and adding perfect details along the way. Remembering that English is her second language allowed me to be even more impressed with her conversation and information. If you are looking for a great walking tour that really is about what you want, I would recommend Claudia every time. A++"
"Simona is a terrific tour guide - very friendly and highly informative. I took her walking tour of Merida on my first day in town, and it was an excellent introduction to the city. Also, Simona is highly knowledgeable about the entire Yucatán Peninsula, and she provided me with lots of very helpful insights for traveling throughout the region. I really appreciated that Simona contacted me in advance of the tour, so she could tailor it to my specific interests in street food and local culture in Merida. I learned a great deal and really enjoyed the experience. I would highly recommend booking a tour with Simona during your visit to Merida! "

"Claudia is a very personable and knowledgeable local lady who not only knows her way around the markets, but got food vendors to hand out free samples of local specialties, including sweets that we would not have encountered on our own. Warmly recommended!"
