Really friendly and nice guide
We absolutely loved our tour with Carlos! From start to finish, he was an amazing guide and made our visit to Chichén Itzá so much more interesting and memorable. His English is excellent and he explains everything in such an engaging and easy-to-follow way. What we especially loved was how personal he made the tour. He shared stories about his own life, hobbies and family, and connected them beautifully to Maya traditions, habits and culture. It really gave us a deeper understanding of the Maya way of life, both past and present. Carlos also had lots of additional photos and illustrations on his iPad, which he used to explain the history of Chichén Itzá and the Maya civilization in even more detail. It added so much to the experience and made it much easier to visualize and understand everything he was telling us. And as a bonus: he takes great pictures too! He knew exactly where to stop for the best photos and made sure we had some lovely memories to take home with us. You can really feel that Carlos is passionate about his culture and history and genuinely enjoys sharing his knowledge with others. We learned so much while also having a lot of fun. Thank you so much, Carlos, for such a wonderful experience. We would 100% recommend a tour with him! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Visiting Chichén Itzá was wonderful but having Carlos as our guide definitely added value our experience. As we walked through the area he spoke about the symbolism behind every building built by the Mayans. He demonstrated the echo effect, took memorable pictures, and shared the history. We walked for about two hours but between conversation and enjoying the view we definitely didn’t feel the time go by. We greatly recommend Carlos as a guide!
Very knowledgeable, easy to understand, iPad images very helpful, good English, friendly, gave a good introduction to the culture, open to questions, didn’t feel rushed, punctual and was there at entrance on our arrival. Paced well, sought shade where possible. Outstanding, highly recommend. Exceeded expectations
Carlos was an incredible guide and truly made our visit to Chichén Itzá unforgettable! He was extremely knowledgeable about Mayan history, culture, and traditions and explained everything in a way that kept our entire family interested and engaged. What we loved most was hearing how Carlos incorporates Mayan traditions into his own daily life. It made everything he shared feel so much more personal and meaningful. He took the time to explain the history and small details we never would have noticed on our own, giving us a much deeper appreciation for Chichén Itzá and Mayan culture. Our family had such a great time with Carlos. His knowledge, passion, and personality made this one of the highlights of our trip. We highly recommend him!
Carlos was a great tour guide and friendly guy. He taught us a lot and was happy to answer our many questions. He also gave us tips for places to eat and Cenotes to visit around Valladolid
Clear Communication. Easy to find when we arrived. Detail oriented and interactive with us when we arrived. -a ton of photos! He helped us get our tickets, no markup. All in all it took about an hour and a half
Carlos was an excellent guide! Provided detailed historical context to the ruins and made it a fun experience. He explained Mayan calendar and zodiacs— super cool! He showed up the trick with obsidian and balance it was very neat we have an awesome morning with Carlos.

Carlos was exceptional !!!He answered all my questions and was super patient while I negosiated my gift purchases :)
The guide truly makes the experience for Chichen Itza, they truly help sculpt the story and enrich the history. Listening in to a couple other of the guides we passed, Carlos really was a stand out among others. On top of the fact that he helps you get the ticket, walks you around the grounds and sticks to the shady areas :) He speaks clear English and Mayan - even shared some of the Mayan pronunciation for Chichen Itza. I wouldn't ever tour without a great guide.
Great enthousiasm, super friendly person
My husband and I saw the Chichen Itza site with Carlos. He was a great guide: very caring, informative, and entertaining. He made sure we were stopping in shady spots, took great pictures, and answered all our questions. We felt well taken care of and not rushed. I would definitely recommend taking a tour with Carlos!
导游非常耐心,给我们讲解了很多关于玛雅的文化,介绍金字塔也非常细致。还耐心回答我们的问题。
Carlos was very helpful in planning our last minute logistics. Very communicative. He was very engaging with how he shared about Chichen Itza in a way that was engaging for our three teens, my husband and I, and my mother-in-law. We especially enjoyed how he brought in personal stories about his family and his Mayan/ Spanish heritage.Seeing pictures on the iPad was a bonus. His English is perfect and we learned so much.
Our guide was pleasant & very knowledgeable. I would absolutely recommend this experience to everyone visiting the Yucatan.
We recently visited Chichén Itzá and had the pleasure of being guided by Carlo. He was incredibly knowledgeable and explained everything clearly and in great detail, making it easy to understand. His English was excellent, and his passion really brought the history of the Mayans to life. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I would highly recommend Carlo to anyone planning to visit Chichén Itzá.

Had a great tour with Carlos! He is very nice and informatieve. He has a way of explaning which makes it easy to understand. His english is great to. Would definitely recommend to do a private tour. This way you learn much more.
Carlos was a great tour guide. It was wonderful to have a private tour so you could ask questions without being overwhelmed by a group of other tourists. He also bought our tickets in advance, so we didn't have to wait in line when we got there. We met him there at 9:00 am, and I wouldn't get there much later because by 11:00,, there were SOOOO many tour buses from Cancun. Carlos was full of information especially about the Mayan culture and the significance of Chichenitza to his culture. He was also excellent at taking pictures with our iPhone and captured some of our favorites from our whole trip. He never seemed rushed and was excellent at answering our questions.
Carlos gave lots of inside information and had great pictures on his iPad that he shared with us. He also knew the exact places for the best pictures.
Carlos was an excellent guide. Great personality, sense of humor and very knowledgeable about Mayan history and present day culture. We scheduled him at the last minute and he was very flexible. His fee was also very fair and a good value for the experience.
This was a great tour! He was very interesting and informative. Would highly recommend to anyone who’s visiting the ruins.
Carlos is an amazing tour guide. From the time we first contacted him by WhatsApp he was responsive and helpful and throughout the tour he was extremely knowledge and a fun guide. Our 2 teenage daughters loved him and found him to be fun and interesting. I totally recommend Carlos as your tour guide to Chichen Itza.
Carlos is a lively, attentive and very customer-oriented guide, who not only provides a lot of information, but also impresses with his outstanding photograghic skills. (He suggested spots where to take pictures, has a good eye for motives and is very skilled with the phone camera.) Carlos illustrated his explanations with photos on his tablet and was overall fun and personally approachable. We had a great time.
This was a well worth it trip. Carlos was well informed, provided a ton of information and kept us comfortable. He would walk us over to whatever shade he could find and provide more details about what it was that we were looking at. I highly recommend booking with Carlos Cutiz Tours, you will not regret it. I would say of my 3 trips to Cancun and many many excursions, Carlos' excursion was the BEST!
The tour with Carlos was very nice and interesting. He has great knowledge about the Mayan culture, history and everything you see at Chichen Itza, and he is also a very nice and funny person. I can only recommend to take a personal tour with him when you are there.
Carlos offers a tour with good command of English. For many in our group, the tour felt a bit rushed at times. His use of a tablet was helpful is showing more details of what were seeing.
This was a perfect tour for us! Carlos was friendly, knowledgeable, and funny. We drove up from Tulum and he was very flexible with our start time. He kept our tour moving quickly but always stopped to answer our questions and share more information when needed. He also used lots of photos on his tablet to bring the site to life. We loved our experience and would highly recommend!
Carlos offers a nicely paced (albeit a bit rushed at times) tour sharing his knowledge along the path. He uses a tablet to share photos of examples of history.
Really great tour! Carlos knows everything about the maya culture and Chichen Itza and also snapped great pictures at the best photo spots.
Amazing energy, information, and cultural knowledge. Carlos was the best tour guide we could have asked for! We loved learning and being lef and walked away with the best photos and memory thanks to Carlos!
10/10 experience, Carlos was so kind and explained everything with great amount of detail. Super good energy and super entretaining, would recommend it to everyone!!!
Excellent guide, very friendly and good information. Made our trip to Chichen Itza complete. He knew all the spots, took nice pictures of us and taught us a lot of interesting facts.
Great guide! Very knowledgeable and humorous and ultimately learned a lot on this tour with Carlos. Would highly recommend him for anyone looking for an English-speaking tour guide at Chichén-Itza.
Very educational and interesting guide by Carlos. Learned a lot you can tell he has a lot knowledge of the site. Thank you
Carlos was so great and fun. I visited Chichén ita with my friend from Mexico and her family who suggested getting a tour guide who could tell us about the site in English. I was apprehensive as I can sometimes find lots of information hard to follow but Carlos made it really fun and exciting, he was genuinely funny and so informative. I also appreciated that he took great photos and kept us in shaded areas for the long talks as I struggle with the heat with being from such a cold country. Muchos Gracias Carlos!
Carlos is amazing. He embraces his Mayan heritage and is extremely knowledgeable. The sights are monumental. His tour is unforgettable. Thank you, Carlos! We had a fantastic day!
5 Carlos was amazing. Would highly recommend him. He was extremely knowledgeable and amazing spirit. I would definitely go with Carlos again.
