Гид в Мексике. Юрий Щепкин. Экспедиции, туры, экскурсии в Мексике. - 77525 Cancún

Terrible service at Yuri. Not conscientious as a person!

I want to share my impressions so that in the future tourists do not spoil their vacation !!!! Prices for tours like a tour operator, only in a big bus is much more comfortable !!! Tightness clogged in a barrel !!! Sitting awful, getting out is not possible !!!! We interrupted the tour and we didn’t even get a taxi at our expense !!!! As a result, they left, went to the local policeman, who does not understand English. He stopped a taxi for us and we left, on the way to the hotel, we stopped at sights! Do not listen to anyone !!! There are adequate residents! We go by taxi - cheaper and more comfortable! Adequate police, take pictures with them! No problem!!!! Drive yourself and don’t overpay! Yuri Schepkin and his team are just no words !!!! Shearing dollars !!!!

We ordered a tour on 01/09/2022 for 01/17/2022, received confirmation from Yuri, a day later we received a message that we were denied due to lack of places. I do not recommend this guide.

Good afternoon, Yuri and hello to everyone who will read this review! Before flying to Mexico, I decided to stupidly google the reviews of tourists about excursions and guides, so as not to spoil my future impressions of the country! I found reviews of tourists and also decided to book an excursion to Chichen Itza / Valladolid / Tulum, etc. through Yuri Shchepkin. Pre-wrote by phone on the Internet, Yuri promptly answered me! Now let's essentially and specifically describe what I liked (the tour was 02/18/2020): - promptly answered questions on excursions - Gave advice on the most interesting places and excursions that did not cost money - Answered questions not related to excursions (safety in Mexico, car rental, currency exchange, mobile communications, etc.) - DON'T DEMAND THE PAYMENT !!! In general, I think that prepayment is normal, but if you have problems or concerns with this, then pay on the spot after the fact) - The organization of the tour is well thought out in terms of time, since we leave at 5-40 and have time to arrive in the ranks of the first in all places, which allows us to take a photo without a crowd in the background and pass checkpoints without queues! Then I want to say right away that this does not mean that you will be alone there, of course not, people will be just one of the wonders of the world (Chichen Itza), but in comparison with other tour operators there will be fewer !!! - It’s also very important - a bus with a group of 13-15 people! This is very important since you do not expect a crowd of people from a huge bus and do not lose time! - The bus is a comfortable Mercedes, in which at least everything is there - the chair reclines, the air conditioning works, they give us some water! - The driver is an experienced Mexican who will keep an eye on things and drive smoothly!

We spent 12 days with Yuri traveling from Mexico City to Cancun. Initially, we planned to go through Acapulco, but Yuri immediately approached the question personally - he clarified the experience of our previous trips, our physical condition, our hobbies ...... and wrote a tour for us! Yuri, we thank with all my heart for such an interesting trip! For us, now Mexico will be associated with you .... We managed to see several ancient civilizations without the tedious journeys. We climbed one of the highest mountains in Mexico, bathed in waterfalls with a real local guide and without tourists, we came to real Indians near Guatemala, and we went to archaeological areas mostly early to the rest of the travelers. Yuri has never left us alone in the evening! An interesting interlocutor, as a kind and caring person, belongs to the category of people with whom you feel safe. Prosperity and success!

For the period from December 9 to 11, inclusive, Yuri Shchepkin became our personal guide in central Mexico. We have never regretted choosing this type of travel. Lack of attachment to a group, where each person perceives information in his own way, you maximally eliminate the loss of time. Organization of preparation for excursion days (purchase of plane tickets, transfer from the hotel, cash settlement during the stay), thanks to the advice of the guide, went as quickly and painlessly as possible. In three days we visited Mexico City, Teotihuacan, Xochimilco, Taxco and the grottoes. The program turned out to be quite intense, but at the same time comfortable. Separately, I would like to note the gastronomic awareness of Yuri - with him you will surely taste the most delicious traditional dishes of Mexico! We consider the program, drawn up by Yura, to be perfectly balanced - the fast pace is perfectly complemented by periods of quiet rest. A nice bonus when you drive a car across an unknown country, in the company of a person who can support intimate conversations and leave you alone when your mood requires it. The impressions from the excursion were extremely positive. Most of all we liked the pyramids, special thanks for the mysterious and mysterious facts told by the guide. Taxco and the grottoes: walking through the caves, you never cease to be amazed at what nature is capable of. Of course, 3 days is a drop in the ocean to see an exciting and colorful country from the inside, so we plan to visit Mexico again, but for 12 days at least, be sure to be in the company with our already guide! Getting to know Mexico as close as possible, experiencing many positive emotions and spending a few days in the company of a real professional, an individual excursion with Yuri is an ideal option.

In June 2021, my daughter and I were on vacation in Cancun. I would like to express my deep gratitude to Yuri and his wife Victoria for our excursions in Mexico. Of course, I assumed that it would be great, but so ...) Thank you for the excellent organization of excursions. The guys, in all their words and deeds, showed how much they love Mexico, it immediately passed on to me and my daughter. It was very interesting to listen, to ask questions concerning various aspects of the country's life. It's also great that the guys advise and show authentic places where you can see or eat something. (there are simply no words, octopuses, crabs, oysters). I will definitely return to Mexico to see other places with you. Cancun and its surroundings have made an unforgettable experience for us, thanks to you! I wish you success, inspiration and wonderful tourists!

Traveled with Yura for Catholic Christmas for 5 days. We fell in love with Mexico and, of course, 95% of it is Yura's merit. Competently built route with the alternation of architectural monuments, recreation and incredible nature. And, of course, gastronomic Mexico would not have taken place without him. A person who knows, loves the country, enjoys what he does and what he shares with others. Well, and what is important, an incredibly comfortable guide who feels his tourists (and we traveled a lot, there is someone to compare with). Highly recommend if you want to feel what Mexico is like.
