Luggage may only be brought on this experience if two conditions are met: there must be enough available space in the vehicle assigned to your booking, and our team must approve it before the tour date. If you need to travel with suitcases or larger bags, please contact us in advance so we can review your transportation assignment. Because vehicle space is limited, luggage approval is not automatic and cannot be guaranteed.

Since April 21, 2026, archaeological sites in Mexico have applied security measures that restrict access with luggage, backpacks, and similar items. We recommend bringing only what is truly necessary for the visit. Ideally, travelers should carry small belongings that fit in pockets or in a compact personal bag. Certain exceptions, such as diaper bags, may be considered by site security staff. However, the final decision belongs exclusively to the personnel at the entrance. We are not responsible for any item that is denied access by the archaeological site. For this specific tour, travelers may leave belongings inside the transportation vehicle while visiting the scheduled stops.

For safety and security reasons, guests may only return to the vehicle when the guide or staff announces the official boarding time. Travelers are not permitted to enter the bus or minibus early, or remain inside while the rest of the group is away. This rule is in place because personal items from other guests may be stored inside the vehicle, and access must be controlled to help protect everyone’s belongings.

Buses, minibuses, vehicles, and seats are assigned by the operations team according to availability and the organization required for that day’s route. Guests cannot choose or request a specific vehicle or seat through the booking platform, directly with staff, or at the pickup location. Our team will always try to make the ride as comfortable as possible, but exact seats, spaces, or vehicles cannot be blocked, held, or guaranteed.

If you are traveling with relatives, friends, or another group that made a separate reservation, please let us know before the tour date so we can check whether it may be possible for everyone to travel together. When all travelers are picked up from the same accommodation, we will make an effort to coordinate it, but it is still not guaranteed. If the pickups are in the same city but at different hotels, we may try to arrange it, although traveling together cannot be assured. If the reservations begin in different cities, this request cannot be coordinated.

Pickup service is only available in the cities and zones listed in the Transportation section of this product. Travelers cannot meet the group directly at Chichen Itza, at another attraction included in the itinerary, or at any location outside the authorized pickup areas. For example, joining the tour at Chichen Itza after arriving in your own vehicle is not allowed. However, pickup from a hotel located within the approved service area, such as Moon Palace Resort, may be possible depending on the listed coverage. To keep the tour properly organized and ensure safe communication with all guests, every traveler must meet our team in the morning at the assigned pickup point, board our transportation, and complete the required check-in process before the experience starts.

If your reservation does not yet show a confirmed hotel or meeting point, you must send this information to our team no later than the day before the tour. From Monday to Saturday, the deadline is 21:50 hrs, GMT-5. On Sundays, the deadline is 8:00 PM, GMT-5. You may provide the information through any available contact channel. After the deadline has passed, same-day or last-minute pickup arrangements can no longer be processed. If we do not receive the required hotel or meeting point information on time, the reservation will be automatically moved to the next available date. This automatic date change has no extra cost, fee, or penalty. However, once the booking has been rescheduled for this reason, it will no longer be eligible for a refund.

The durations shown in the itinerary represent the complete time assigned to each section of the experience. These times may include driving between locations, the visit itself, activity time, boarding, organization, and the time required to continue the route or return. They should not be understood as the exact time spent only inside each attraction. Please refer to the itinerary for the approximate timing of the full experience.

Our team works to keep the tour as close as possible to the planned schedule. However, the timing also depends on guests being ready at the assigned pickup time and returning promptly at each stop. Traffic, road conditions, and other route factors may also affect the day and are outside our control. Please follow the meeting times given by the guide and respect the time assigned at every location. Even a very short delay can accumulate during the day and affect the overall operation of the tour.

The box lunch included with this experience is a fixed option served as part of the standard meal arrangement. It cannot be changed or adjusted for special diets, food restrictions, allergies, or personal preferences.

The included lunch is served as a regional Mexican buffet. Travelers may choose from the food options available at the buffet. Vegetarian options are offered, but the buffet is not currently adaptable for other specific dietary requirements.
