15 Best Chichen Itza Tours from Playa del Carmen

The Chichen Itza tours below solve the one problem that matters from Playa: distance. Count on roughly two and a half hours each way, which is why I only list departures early enough to beat the late morning bus surge at the pyramid. Most add Valladolid or a cenote, and both make the ride home easier.
