## Ek Balam Tour Guide Cancun Reviews in United States

### ***** "Great Value"
Much cheaper than the local guides, group tours, and other touristy stuff. The narration is excellent and also gives in depth information which was interesting to listen to.
-- Dave Keplin, 2019-05-27

### ***** "Really adds a lot to the experience"
We used this app for touring both Ek Balam and the Tulum ruins. It added a lot to the experience, giving detailed and we'll narrated information, while not being overly verbose. The interface isn't the best, but it's functional and simple enough to understand.
-- Max Dyckhoff, 2019-04-17

### ***** "Careful Reviewer"
Worth the price and more!! Stress-free way to wander. It was fun and informative. I loved not having to look at a book. Very cool that the audio triggers by your GPS location!
-- Careful Reviewer, 2019-03-13

### ***** "Third nice app in Cancún from this company"
We used Chichen Itza and Tulum app from this company before. This is the third app we used. Like the other two, it is very nice and useful. We downloaded the app at the hotel and went over the stories the previous night. At the site, there is no cellular or WiFi. GPS worked fine and we could follow the line and listen to the stories. 

Climbing the pyramid was a lot of fun. Half way to the top are the most interesting structures. All the way on the top has a great view. Coming down is harder. Try zig zag while coming down.

Since, we had the app, we did not spend $$ for a guide. It was a pleasant experience.
-- Smart Dude61, 2019-03-09

### ***** "Excellent guide"
The GPS triggering is very useful - we got all the useful information just by walking over to the “pin” on the map. They give you a route to follow from one pin to the next. I would recommend this over the guide any day... a LOT of info
