Practical tips for self drivers: drive all the way up to the formal entry to the Chechen Itza premises to pay to park for your vehicle. Pay at the entrance for formal tickets and perhaps once through… Full review by Thung673

This would be my second visit to Chichen Itza and I was not less impressed by the Mayan site but was very disappointed by tour organizer and Chichen Itza entrance. If you plan to record anything in … Full review by Armantraveling
Hi, how can I buy the normal tickets online? On the website I only see the options for the skip the line tickets, and tour tickets. Is it possible to buy normal tickets online? We are planning on being there early, so skip the line is probably a waste of money for us. Thanks!

We arrived just after opening time and it was an absolute zoo. The line was already extensive. We hired a guide when we arrived who could buy tickets at a different window, so it took us about 10 minutes to get tickets and go through the bag check. As far as we could discover, there wasn’t a way to buy tickets in advance. Also, you have to buy two tickets from two different windows. One is for the entry and the other is for the tax. Two different people check the tickets, one for each kind.
Do you need to buy tickets in advance? We would like to arrive very early for opening so would ticket purchase in advance be advisable? Many thanks

No, they had a decent eh up to buy tickets at the pyramid. I went with a tour and we got there middle of the day parking was a little crazy I would suggest to get there early to avoid lines and tons of people in your photos. Also you would be avoiding mid-day heat
What is the ticket cost at the counter for adults & kids? Without any excursion or tour guide. Just for entrance and parking.

No charge for parking. But I HIGHLY recommend that you get there at opening time. Parking lot was empty & no crowds. By the time we left 2 hours later, parking was full & bus loads …
No charge for parking. But I HIGHLY recommend that you get there at opening time. Parking lot was empty & no crowds. By the time we left 2 hours later, parking was full & bus loads of people were piling out. As for the fee, our tour guide (also recommended) went ahead of the line & purchased our tickets for us. I’m not sure of the price because our cost included the guide. He was very informative. I want to think it was about $35 per adult. There’s also an amazing cenote called Ik Kil about 5 minutes away that you can do without the guide. There are packages that offer a cenote with the ruins but you don’t need it. I hope this helps.
