Daniella is fantastic. She put together a great trip that hit the highlights of the Yucatan around Merida in the few days that I had -- Chichen Itza, Uxmal, and the protected wetlands at Celestun. Consistently excellent recommendations for hotels, restaurants, knowledgeable guide for the Maya ruins, and they were extremely helpful with the travel disruptions and changing plans caused by the coronavirus situation. Daniella is always accessible and every aspect of these tours can be personalized to your liking. This trip was too short, I would love to come back to Merida and I would certainly hire Yucatan Concierge again to help arrange the trip.

Erhard's professionalism was evident from first contact. He replied quickly and designed an itinerary that perfectly suited my interests. In 6 days we covered 1,000 miles and (owing to Erhard's excellent planning) had plenty of time at every destination: Chichen Itza, beautiful colonial cities, great local food, the jungle ruins at Calakmul, and much more, all expertly explained by Erhard. I cannot imagine a better traveling companion and feel that I now have a friend in Mexico. Very highly recommended!
