Overall, great trip: good planning from Rene, exactly the things I wanted, and then great execution by Marianne supporting me every day. WOuld only change 4 things
- Hotel in Palenque: bad experience. Bad food poisoning from hotel restaurant, noone in pace speaks any englis, beds uncomfortable, ...
- R Barrios waterfalls: skip. Waterfals are ok but can do in 1 hour, but tour drops you there for 3 hours with only 1 small bar to sit after that even wants to charge you for wifi
- Ek Balam Cenote: cenote is very good, but the included lunch is terrible. Better book without the lunch

Visit the Roberto Barrios Waterfalls

Waterfalls are ok but can do in less than 1 hour. But the trip is 3 hours and only place to stay is at some small bar that has no menu, and even tries to charge you for wifi
