I did not get what I paid for at all. I bought tickets to take a semi-private van (four families)…read morefrom my hotel in Mérida to my hotel in Cancun with a stop in Chichen Itza to see the ruins and have lunch. But they had no intention of taking us to Cancun. At Chichen Itza, the tour guide informed me they were going back to Mérida and we had find our own way to Cancun (they recommend a bus company). So they stranded me, my wife, and my special needs child half way to our destination. They lied to us and stranded us probably because they didn't have enough people booked to Cancun. They should have been honest with me so I could make proper arrangements but their greed outweighs their decency. I urge everyone reading this review to look elsewhere for a tour of the Yucatan. Estos descgraciodos quebradon mi contracto. Deberian llevar me de mi hotel en Mérida hasta mi hotel en Cancun. Estos larones me dejaron en Chichen Itza y me dijieron que nesecitaba consiguir un bus y taxi para llagar a Cancun.

This business has no ethics and won't think twice about screwing you. We booked a tour from Merida…read moreto Cancun with a stopover at Chichen Itza. Instead of taking us to Cancun as promised they dumped us at Chichen Itza and told us we had to take a public bus to Cancun. We were shocked, horrified and angry. Luckily, I paid with a credit card and I'm fighting the charges. Unscrupulous liars.

Beautiful facility with some interesting exhibits. Be prepared to use your phone to translate…read moreexhibit explanations because almost everything is in Spanish only. Nonetheless, if you love history or archeology, this is a must see museum in Merida. At times the museum allows private events, and we were able to attend a reception during a private event. We enjoyed live classical music while we sipped wine on the upper terrace on a beautiful February evening. If you are able to attend a private event at the museum, do so! Overall cleanliness: excellent Bathroom cleanliness: above average

Museo Casa Montejo is the restored home of Don Francisco de Montejo - the conqueror of Yucatán and…read morefounder of the colonial city of Mérida (Maya people lived in the city before it was Merida). It dates from 1540 and was the house of Francisco de Montejo the Younger (in Spanish "El Mozo" - the Younger). It might be the oldest building in Mérida. Although the house was rebuilt in 1850, there are many original furnishings and direct descendants of the Montejo family lived here until 1978. Four rooms (a dining room, a living room, an office and a bedroom) house a permanent exhibition of furnishings from the historic building. There is a small room that shows a short film about the history of the house, which I found really interesting and informative (in Spanish with English subtitles) and a few rooms that house temporary art exhibitions. A bank bought the building and renovated it to open it as a museum. It's free to visit, so well worth exploring! The exterior and the interior are both incredibly beautiful. I'm glad we visited it on our first afternoon in Merida last week. It - with the cathedral and the palacio on the other sides of the Plaza Grande - really helped provide me with a historical context to understand more Yucatecan and Mayan history relevant for the rest of our trip!

This is a nice little mansion of one of the historic figures of Merida. They have a few nice things…read moreand installations to take pics here and it's right by the main sqaure best of all where they do light shows, food trucks, and by the pok ta pok reinactment.
