Our tour guide Gabriel was amazing, he had a lot of wonderful information about Merida and the Mayan people!

“Best walking tour I've ever taken”
I travel slot and I in each city I do a walking tour. Fernando was the best God I've ever had. He was so knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. His English is super and he was able to answer any historical questions. I had. Very very good with people and I love what he chose to show us. He also made lots of recommendations for what to do after the tour. And he had a list of things to do that we didn't have time to do in the hour and a half. The time flew by. I highly recommend it
