Hello! My name is Daniel Canul Li, and I truly appreciate you taking the time to read a little bit about me. I’m 100% yucateco, born and raised right here. As a fourth generation Korean-Yucatecan, direct descendant of those who arrived to work in the henequen haciendas, my roots in this land run deep. I’m also a passionate collector of banknotes, hacienda tokens and historical documents from Yucatán. This hobby has given me a unique connection to the stories, people and historical moments that shaped the region. I’ve been a Federally Certified Guide since 2017, just as the law requires. Before guiding, I worked as a History teacher for primary and secondary students, an experience that taught me how to make the past engaging, relatable and enjoyable. My tours are all about showing you the Yucatán as we locals truly experience it, not the rehearsed routes or the overcrowded stops, and definitely nothing that feels mass-produced. I focus on the real, the meaningful, the unexpected, those small moments that stay with you long after the trip is over. Safety, good conversations, and genuine human connection are always part of my journeys. Making sure you feel comfortable and secure is essential to truly enjoying our time together. We can craft an experience that goes far beyond the tour itself, something worth remembering long after the day is over. I’d be truly honored to share my home, my culture and my stories with you. If you’re looking for an experience that feels personal, authentic, safe and created especially for you, I’d love to be your guide. Whenever you’re ready, I’m here to help you plan a trip you’ll never forget. I hope to meet you soon — let’s explore Yucatán together!

Are you visiting Yucatán? Then you absolutely can’t leave without discovering one of the Seven Wonders of the World! Join me for an unforgettable tour through the heart of Chichén Itzá, where we’ll explore its most iconic buildings! I’ll guide you through each site sharing fascinating stories & fun facts, as well as showing you the best spots to capture stunning photos—making your visit truly special. As an additional perk, as we drive from one site to another, there will be snacks and refreshments at your disposal in our vehicle so the time in between stops can also be enjoyable! My goal is to make you feel pandered, safe, and overall taken care of, so you can just focus on taking in the sights with the peace of mind that you'll be back where you need to be right in time.
•After picking you up from an agreed location, either in Progreso or in Merida (please select your preferred address when booking), we'll embark on an approximately 2 hour drive to Chichen Itza, but not before giving you a welcome briefing, of course! •Once we get there, I'll take you on a guided visit of Chichen Itza. • After that, we’ll return to the car, drive about 20 minutes, and enjoy a refreshing swim in a cenote. • Stops here and there if there is something interesting like a church, sometimes people are selling local snacks, etc. •Finally, we’ll get back in our vehicle where you could just sit back & relax enjoying some drinks & snacks in as we return to where I picked you up from.

If your group consisted of up to 3 travellers, we would use a Kia Seltos SUV. If you were in a larger group, please contact me before booking so I could send you a customized version of this tour. Depending on the size of the group, we will use the most suitable vehicle. Rest assured all options are comfortable and equipped with air conditioning. The vehicles I use are registered with federal license plates specifically for tourism, as required by Mexican law.
Progreso, Yucatan, Mexico
At your hotel in Merida or you can request a different meeting location. If you're a cruise ship passenger arriving in Progreso once you exit the ship, you'll walk through souvenir shops until you reach the shuttle & taxi area. You'll be able to either take the free shuttle or a taxi (suggested). You'll be dropped off at the AutoProgreso bus station. I’ll be waiting right outside with a sign with your name.
