We are actually working on our Yucatan Food Tour video, so you better save the date 😝 it would be released in about 2 weeks just after Valladolid. We've been in L.A. and we know food is expensive well in general California is pretty expensive 😅. Thank you for watching, stay tuned for our upcoming videos. Saludos amigo 🤗🇲🇽

    The colosseum in Rome was impressive because it is over 1900 years old and it has lots of history and Hollywood made a great movie (Gladiator). Although I’ve been to Cancun almost half a dozen times and always plan to visit chichen itza, I still have not the chance to go but I really enjoyed this video and it makes me want to try to go next time I’m in the Yucatán region.🌎🇲🇽👍

      @ForTheRoadTravels  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, you can!
      Either take a ADO bus straight to Valladolid, and then get another bus to Chichen-Itza or get one of the second class buses from Playa del Carmen to Chichen-Itza; which usually stops at Valladolid but the route travel time can be longer due to the stops, but if you want to same a couple of bucks this can be the option 🙏🤩

    • @ForTheRoadTravels
      @ForTheRoadTravels  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hola Shanycole😃😃 Thank you so much for your sweet comment, we really appreciate it🤗 Oh, how exciting - we're sure you're going to have a great time, Mexico is amazing 🇲🇽😃 We would recommend exchanging your US dollars at a money exchange facility like Elektra (Bank Azteca) for the best exchange rate. Some places you may want to spend US$ may give you a very poor exchange rate, or they may not even accept US$ at all. If you're not so worried about the exchange rate, most places in the more touristy places will accept US$ with no problem🙂 Hope that was helpful and we hope you have a WONDERFUL time in beautiful Mexico🇲🇽 Saludos!

      Thank you for watching 🙏. Yes, it's totally safe, we would say try to check the time leaving from PDC and avoid going on Sundays as this day tends to be busier as nationals have free entrance, any other day is busy but if you go on early you will have more chances to take nice pictures there without the crowds 🥰. It is Ok not having a tour guide, but if you want to have a deeper knowledge of the archeological zone; is recommended to hire one at the main entrance. We hope our videos are helping you to plan your trips to this beautiful country 🤗. Saludos from PDC 🌴 🇲🇽
