CHICHEN ITZA TOUR TIPS
Your Chichen Itza tour first enters a large parking lot and lets you off near the entrance. The front entrance has stores and restaurants where you can buy books, maps, videos and arts and crafts. This is where the public washrooms are as well.
If you reserve the private transportation tour option you can purchase entrance tickets and if you prefer to have a private guide at the entrance to hire a professional.
Take a hat or an umbrella with you especially in the summer [June – August], it gets hot.
Better to ware hiking shoes over sandals if you want to climb up things. This is because your feet get all sweaty and it becomes easy to slip unless you have really tight well fitting sandals.
Bring a nap-sack to carry your stuff on your back.
Keep an eye on your children at all times and warn them not to walk off into the jungle.
Bugs are not a problem but are more prevalent in the dry seasons. Take bug spray as a precaution.
Pay close attention to your guide and you will learn a lot about the Maya and Chichen Itza.
Climbing Up the Great Kukulcan Pyramid – In 2006 a visitor fell from the great Kukulcan pyramid and unfortunately lost her life. Because of this incident INAH (Instituto Nacional de Antropologia e Historia) has closed access to climbing the pyramid.

If you stand directly in front of the Kukulcan pyramid and clap your hands the echo is alleged to be that of the sacred Mayan bird known as the Quetzal.
In the Ballcourt, if you put one person at one end then stand at the opposing wall at the other end you “may” be able to hear the person whispering. This is stated as fact in numerous web sites however do the experiment and see for your self.
During the summer and winter equinox a shadow appears on the side of the steps of the Kukulcan Pyramid that resemble a snake.
CHICHEN ITZA TOUR REVIEWS
This tour was great! Everything from the food provided to the tour guides. We loved seeing Chichen Itza, eating in Valladolid and jumping into the Zaci cenote. And on top of a great day, our tour guides and bus driver dropped off off even closer to our hotel then they were originally supposed to. They were amazing!I also worked with Fany to re-book my tour due to an unforeseen circumstance. The process were effortless and convenient. Thank you for a great day!
