“I wish I didn’t take this tour . First , The tour company told me the pickup time was 6:50am. But the driver arrived at 7:20 . Besides, tour description says “ tour language is English” but the guide speaks Spanish half of the time. I understand he was saying the same thing in both English and Spanish . But this is not a good use of our time. The tour company should update the description to be “ mixed group for both English and Spanish” At Chichen Itza, another guide walked us around and talked about some history.
