Ray (Driver) and Riaz (Tour Guide) were a great team. They arrived early to the hotel for the 0800 pickup and off we went. First stop was a walk around Playa Delfines and our picture at the ‘ Cancun ‘ sign then off to an off the beaten path to a nearby Mayan archeological site. After that a stop at the Mayan Museum where Riaz expertly regaled us with the geo-political history of the Mayan culture which helped explain what we were seeing as many of the exhibits were in Spanish only. We declined the cenote visit for more time at mercado 23 and 28. Ray and Riaz combined their knowledge of the markets to take us to interesting stores where we proceeded to shop for unique items for as and the family back home. Lunch at a nice outdoor restaurant near the bull ring where Riaz recommended delicious foods we would never have asked for. Ray was an excellent driver keeping the car well positioned for pickups and making us feel comfortable and safe. Vanessa, (the office point of contact) has been wonderful helping plan our trips and responding rapidly to any inquires we had. If you’re going to spring for a private tour, Jaguar is the tour company to go with. Looking forward to the upcoming Coba trip.

This experience blew me away. As someone who typically likes to relax on the beach, I’m so glad I pushed myself out of my comfort zone to go on this experience. Yahir is not only incredibly knowledgeable, he is also very passionate. We were able to try authentic street food (the torta may have been one of the best things I have ever eaten) and shop at places with authentic souvenirs. The cenote was beautiful and he gets you there before anyone else is there, we had the whole place to ourself. The Mayan history was so interesting and I learned so much. 10/10 and will be recommending to all my friends who visit Cancun.

If you want to spend time outside of the "touristy" Cancun hotel strip and experience true Mexican culture, this is the perfect tour for you. Yahir was knowledgeable, passionate, and so kind. The experience and food all so good and so authentic. Definitely a highlight of my Mexico trip.

I can’t say enough great things about Axel and this tour. It was exactly what I was looking for with my young kids - a real experience with Mexico, outside of the varnished resorts. For starters, Axel got us to a cenote before ANYONE else showed up. He knew another group was coming at 10, and when we got there at 9 am, we had the WHOLE cenote to ourselves. We could zip line through it, cliff jump, swim through the crystal clear waters - all by ourselves. It was amazing. Then Axel brought us to a real local market (the exact opposite of a tourist trap) and we just sampled and meandered our way through. For lunch, we tried so many Yucatan specialities that we never would have known to try, and the food was simple but delicious. I note his van had AC and was meticulously clean too, with snacks and drinks for everyone. Then, we headed to the Mayan ruins/museum. Being so close to town and shaded, it made it easy for our young kids to enjoy it (unlike chichen itza that’s over 2 hours away with no sun cover). Axel was so knowledgeable and clearly passionate about the archeology and people. This was truly a pleasure and gave us a small slice of the fascinating culture in this area. Thank you so much, Axel. I have no doubt you will achieve your dreams and beyond.

If you're looking for a tour: this is who you should book with. Our experience was incredible. Axel/Jaguar Journey welcomed us with knowledge and passion for this gorgeous region. It's impossible to choose a favorite part of our tour, because each leg of it felt very special. I loved the tour of the Maya museum and ruins because of how insightful it was! I loved the vibrant marketplace that let us get a taste of local Cancun! I loved the thrill and beauty of the cenote! And I loved to try delicious Yucatan flavors! We will treasure these memories and I would recommend Jaguar Journey to anybody traveling to this region. I wish I could give it ten stars. Thank you so much!

Getting a sense of the energy and spirit of an area is very important to my husband and I. So, we thoroughly enjoyed our day with Axel and his historical knowledge of the Yucatan area and of the different peoples that call it home. Axel as a guide is easy-going, has an excellent sense of humour, and was flexible to include our requests. If you are looking for a unique experience, Jaguar Journeys is a terrific choice.

There were four adults in our group. Axtel, our tour guide picked us up at our hotel at the agreed time. We found Axtel to be very knowledgeable, friendly, kind and accommodating. He took us to swim in a special cenote. We were the only ones there. One of our group lost his wedding ring while swimming in the cenote. Axtel, not having swim trunks jumped in anyway diving 15 feet down trying to find the ring. Needless to say an act far beyond what one would expect from a tour guide.
He took us to a local market where the locals shop. The best and more fruit and vegetables than I’ve ever seen. Here we also saw shops of local artisans where we purchased our souvenirs. We went to a Mayan restaurant for amazing food and then to the Mayan museum. He is very knowledgeable and was also our guide in the museum.
If you are looking to book a tour, you cannot find a better tour company or guide. They are the best. I highly recommend Jaguar Journey.

Axel was fantastic!! He is very educated about the land and the Mayan culture and history.
We began our tour at a cenote that was off the beaten path. He explained all about cenote, showed us the and stalagmites and the importance of the cenotes to the culture. We enjoyed a leisurely dip in the "pool". Next stop the Mexican market. It wasn't the tourist drop off but where the locals shop. We had a great lunch and later the museum. We requested a couple of stops not scheduled on our tour and he was happy to accommodate.
If you want to see Cancun in a personalized way you really should book this tour. You won't be disappointed!

A great experience and great to meet Axel. Axel is an extremely passionate guide and you wouldn't be able to have the same experience without him there. It was amazing to learn about the history and culture, visit the markets locals visit and eat great authentic food. When we come back again we will surely book one of his tours at Jaguar Journey.

We had the BEST EXCURSION EVER with Axel and Jaguar Journey! We wanted to see more of Cancún than what the resorts or touristy spots like Isla Mujeres have to offer, and we were thrilled with this City Tour experience. Axel picked us up at our hotel and had drinks and snacks available in the car. He was very welcoming, friendly, and knowledgeable. My mom and I were joined on the tour by a couple staying at another resort, and Axel did a great job at keeping the conversation going among all of us, sharing interesting facts about the sights along the drive, his experiences in the tourism industry, and the history and culture of the region. We visited the Mayan Museum first and then drove out to a cenote that is not well known by tourists. It was beautiful and we could have stayed there all day, swimming in beautiful water and jumping from the rope swing! But off to our next stop at a market in Cancún that again, is not really frequented by tourists. We saw all kinds of produce and other food stands, and I bought two dozen freshly made tortillas for only 25 pesos. We ended the day at a restaurant where they served us all kinds of appetizers and some amazing tacos. We enjoyed it so much that we ordered an extra round of beers and more tacos! We wished the day didn't have to end and the next time we visit Cancún, we will 100% be booking another tour with Axel. There's a reason why Jaguar Journey has so many excellent reviews, and if you are looking for something personalized, educational, and FUN to do - you really MUST choose Jaguar Journey!
