Everything is reserved for your group alone: the vehicle, the guide, and the schedule. No shared buses, no affiliate stops, and no strangers. Group size is 2 to 8 people. You move at your own pace and choose how long to spend at each site.
It depends on what you value. If you are traveling with 2 to 8 people and want the vehicle and guide reserved for your group alone, yes. If you are a solo traveler or on a tight budget, a shared group tour will cost less. Private makes sense when pace, comfort, and flexibility matter more than price per person.
Chichen Itza is one of the New Seven Wonders of the World and Mexico’s most celebrated archaeological site. El Castillo aligns with the sun on the spring and fall equinoxes. The Great Ball Court is the largest in Mesoamerica. Few sites offer such intact examples of Maya astronomy and cosmology.
