Feedback from guests whose tour started in/around Playa Del Carmen during August.
Madita | Traveled in August
It was great experience but for a Holiday too exhausting because of Long driving (4x 11hours where itinerary says 5-6h) and Bad Hotels. The Hotel Level is more like ?run down? B&Bs. Never breakfasts?! Exciting but exhausting.
Lisanne | Traveled in August
Had the best time during the Yucatan experience trip. Saw all the beautiful places in the area with a very nice group of people. Our tour guide was very sweet and had many recommendations for activities and places to eat. The accommodations we were staying were all super nice.

I had a great time on this trip and would definitely book another experience with TruTravels. During the trip, our guide was with us most of the time, she was really friendly and enthusiastic and really helped us all make the most of the trip. She did well to encourage everyone to mix and get to know each other. The accomodation all felt safe and clean. The activities were nicely spread out and there was a decent variety and pace. There was enough time to relax a bit without getting bored.
