I did Uxmal in Feb. Originally I wanted to go to Chichen Itza. But it's a
longer drive, you can no longer climb the pyramid and the site is so huge
that you can't even see a third of it.

All 3 that you mention are very good to visit. This is one of the times
I would use the ships excursions just to be sure the ship doesn't leave
without you. Take a look at the tours the ship offers and choose one
that works best for you and your teens timewise.

I'm going to Progresso later this year and am interested in opinions and
excursions to Uxmal, Dzibilchaltun, or Chichen Itza. Which is the best? I
have teenagers so that might affect the decision as to which one to visit.
Are private tours better that the ship sponsored ones?
How much better priced are the private excursions?

I was in Progresso many years ago. There wasn't much shopping the
--what
about now?

Thanks for your help!!
