I became a tour guide 22 years ago. I was born in Bacalar and I love my job. As an anthropologist I combine my work with diferent kind of programs in communities of Bacalar. Thanks to you, I can help programs of organic agriculture in the area, for example. I feel proud of what I do and the place were I live. And of cours, makes me very happy to share that with you. Laguna Bacalar is a wonderfull natural place. Kayaking is one of the best choices to get to know the lake and take care of it. Let me show you how beautiful it is. History is one of my passions. I am pursuing a degree in Mayan History, and would love to take you to the mayan ruins, to enjoy and discover ceremonial centers between the jungle. Nom-08-TUR-2002 #N010693 licensed by INAH.

Outstanding tour. Thanks to Tania's wisdom and experience, we got there before the crowds, so we had the entire ruins to ourselves. She also knew a fascinating amount about Maya history as well as the local flora and fauna.
We had a great tour with Tania! We highly recommand to visit both Maya-sites with Tania. Tania knows a lot over the Maya history and loves to tell you everything about it. We've got so many informations and can understand the history now much better than before! As well Tania really took care of all our needs. We've got water, snacks, reppellent! So we have nothing to complain about it! 5 Star rating - best experience we had in Bacalar
I went to Kohunlich with Tania so I knew this tour would be great. I was not disappointed. Becan is very special as it's surrounded by a moat (now dry) . There is a long tunnel with a vaulted ceiling also. Tania explains Maya culture in a much more life affirming way rather than just in terms of battles and hierarchies. I have visited many ruins and honestly, Tania really woke me up with a different perspective and gave me much food for thought. She is fluent in English, attentive and just a lovely person
Wonderful ruins and wonderful guide. Tania was very helpful and attentive. Her extensive knowledge of the Mayan culture and her ability to compare and cross reference other religions and cultures made her one of the best guides I've ever had. The Temple of the Masks is stunning and Tania arranged for us to see it before the cruise ship groups arrived (nothing against them ; it's just nice to be alone with all this ). Great guide and her English is very good. She is also a lovely person.
We meet and begin the tour at 8 am. - On the road for 50 minutes to get to Kohunlich - 2 hours enjoying the history of Kohunlich and the wildlife of the rain forest - Back on the road to get back to the meeting point. *Do not hesitate to contact me for a customized tour
