Autoprogreso tour is cheaper. I think it is $49pp.

Autoprogreso is the company that provides the free shuttle buses from the cruise ship to town.

We went to Uxmal with Autoprogreso about 1 year ago and it was a great tour.

Make sure you can get your money refunded if you pay non-cruise excursions, as sometimes there are port changes. Like today, thanks to hurricane Paula.

You don't pay anything upfront with AutoProgreso.

That is indeed a good thing. I thought of that when I went out to Progreso on Monday and there was no cruise ship there, much to the chagrin of the local vendors. Bummer if someone paid for a shore excursion and then have some stupid hurricane come along! :)

I'm considering using AP but I wasn't sure what time they arrive back to port. I would like to do some shopping but I wanted to make sure if we do this tour through AP that I would at least have some time to shop in Progresso. Also, will they drop you off downtown instead of at the port?

Depending on how many are in your party, our guide was a good deal. He charged $100 for my family of four, but we did pay for entrance into Uxmal. The entrance fee was only $20 or so for 3 adults and 0 for my little girl. Robert was super knowledgable. As noted in my recent post, we stopped in a small town to see a 400 YO church and briefly by a hacienda before Uxmal. I'm sure he could do what you want.

 

If you have or can wrangle about 8 or so, he can get a van and driver.
