"We had so much fun with Dante and Eddy and we honestly felt by the end of our expedition we had made two new great friends"

At the Throne of the Tiger Priest

Our expedition with Archaeology Experts was the highlight of our honeymoon, we are already talking about going back for another expedition! Our luxurious private expedition was perfectly curated for us and we were able to see parts of Mexico most people only dream of. «We had so much fun with Dante and Eddy and we honestly felt by the end of our expedition we had made two new great friends» Our expedition started at Balankanche where we followed the same steps of the Mayans into the Altar of the Jaguar Priest. We felt so privileged to be able to see the religious offerings of the Mayans that had remained untouched for thousands of years. Upon exiting the cave, we were provided with cool towels and local beverages so we were fully refreshed for the next stop of our journey! Dante has so much knowledge of the cenote system and we were fascinated by the stories he told us on our way to relax in our own private cenote. One of our favorite memories as a newlywed couple was relaxing in the cenote together just listening to the nature surrounding us. It was truly a moment we will never forget! And if you want to go to Chichén Itzá, the best way to see it is with Archaeology Experts. Not only did we have the most knowledgeable guides with us, we also had the entire site to ourselves!! Having a private sunset of one of the the most visited archeological sites in the world was nothing short but magical. My husband and I agree that our dinner at the Hacienda is by far one of our favorite memories. We enjoyed authentic Mayan cuisine in a beautiful 17th century hacienda and were serenaded by a mariachi band. You definitely have to try the chaya!! While we did a lot of things during our honeymoon, our day with Archaeology Experts was the highlight of our trip.

 
"It was the best part of our incredible trip to Mexico while we stayed at the lovely Chable Maroma"

The Cave of The Pink Palace

We loved our trip with Archaeology Experts through the biosphere! Even during the car ride from the hotel to Sian Kaa’an Dante -our Archaeologist- taught us so much about history and geography and culture of the region. He is a lively, fun and very knowledgeable, experienced expert who is never boring! We climbed up high on a birdwatching lookout to see the gorgeous landscape around is. We walked through the ancient Maya temples and the Archaeologist Dante really brought the place to life with the interesting and sometimes amusing little details about the once-thriving cultures and people in the area.  Because Dante is a true intellectual he was able to go further that the usual tour guide. He is so passionate about the subjects that it is hard not to get swept up in his enthusiasm! Dante took us in a boat throughout the biosphere, quietly gliding in some areas so we could observe the wildlife and enjoy the silence and beauty. My favorite part was floating on our backs in the water, being pulled by a gentle current. He took us to majestic cenotes and an amazing lunch where we had the best most authentic Pre-Hispanic Maya food we had on the whole trip! Dante and his team also gave us incredible photos of the trip. Eddy our personal photographer was busily and unobtrusively taking photos all day and we were so glad he did! We now have incredible photos to remember the whole experience. 

"We had an incredible experience and will definitely recommend this company and their expeditions to anyone that is looking for a unique travel experience"

Diving The Maya Otherworld (Quintana Roo)

My husband and I were on a vacation in the Riviera Maya and decided to book a scuba excursion with Archaeology Experts, Dante and Leo. Our instructors were wonderful and our expedition/activity felt very personalized to what we were interested in seeing and doing. Leo was also kind enough to film our time underwater with the GoPro that we brought along.

"While expensive, they are worth every peso. Our private cenote dive was one of the best and most memorable dives we've ever had"

Diving The Maya Other World (Yucatán)

We used Archaeology Experts for all of our Mayan pyramid excursions and private cenote dive while staying with Chable Yucatan and absolutely loved them. We stay at the best luxury hotels around the world, and Archaeology Experts took care of us as well as anyone ever has. We love Dante, Luz, Pablo & Leo and recommend them to anyone looking for a world class expedition.

"I will continue to travel down to Mexico for the experience of diving with Archaeology Experts, as I’m sure there are no better Dive masters in Yucatán"

In The Maw of The Earth Monster

I met Dante by chance on one of my visits down to Mexico. Since then, I’ve come back year after year to go on guided scuba diving as well as exploring dry caves full of mystery with Dante. He is very professional and safety comes first. I always leave more educated than I left, as he has an encyclopedic knowledge of all the hidden gems in the Yucatán Peninsula.

“La diferencia entre una visita guiada y una experiencia única de inmersión histórica y arqueológica”

El Reino de Chaac

El equipo de Archeology Experts -dirigido por el arqueólogo Dante García- diseñó un viaje único para nuestra familia en donde pudimos conocer nuevos lugares de los mayas y re-visitar con nueva información templos y cenotes ya conocidos. Gracias al profundo conocimiento arqueológico e histórico de nuestros guías, mas que un viaje al pasado, crearon una experiencia de viaje excepcional. Durante los 3 días de viaje recorrimos cuevas inéditas donde nuestros hijos y hasta los adultos pudimos apreciar la importancia de cuidar los sitios arqueológicos mexicanos. También visitamos un galería cerámica que mantiene vivas las técnicas precolombinas en manos de los artistas que ahí trabajan. El viaje estuvo muy balanceado con una visita un cenote muy especial, explicaciones gráficas y espaciales de una épica cueva arqueológica, así como la visita a una gran iglesia colonial del Siglo XVIII que pudimos escudriñar desde dentro y hasta caminar por el campanario para ver el atardecer.  Cada lugar que visitamos se tornó más especial por el tiempo que Dante y su equipo dedicaron para explicarnos su relevancia, dándole vida a la historia de cada lugar. ¡El viaje no podría haber culminado mejor que con la visita al sitio arqueológico de Uxmal! 

"Sentí una conexión con la humanidad y con todos los ancestros. Me siento honrada y feliz de la vivencia. Sin duda, para repetirlo"

El Reino de Chaac

Mi experiencia con Archaeology Experts fue fascinante. Me encantó la explicación de los lugares que visitamos de una forma profesional, es decir: de un arqueólogo, y no solo desde la perspectiva de un guía de turistas o un libreto. Los lugares que visitamos fueron excelentes. Jamás me imaginé visitar lugares tan fuera de lo común, pero tan cerca de la naturaleza. Los monos araña y la laguna fueron increíbles.

Flying Over Ancient Maya Cities

We had an actual archaeologist teach us all about the Chichén Itzá Mayan ruins on Mexico’s Yucatán
Peninsula and the cenotes that lay beneath and near them. Probably the coolest experience. Everyone needs
an archaeologist in their life.
