Uxmal is breathtaking and well worth the trip! Would recommend a tour where they transport you to and from - there's a lot to do in that area and it would be difficult to navigate it all on your own. Kabah was also great, and more interactive than most historical sites. The chocolate museum was interesting - a bit kitschy, but the chocolate was delicious! This a fairly rigorous tour, we ended up walking a total of ~5 miles, definitely make sure you have sunscreen and bug spray and reapply throughout the trip. Our guides were excellent and well prepared for the day - we stopped at an Oxxo (convenience store) to get supplies (beverages, snacks) and they had a cooler for our beverages and chocolates purchased at the museum. Bring more water than you think you'll need, you'll thank yourself ok the drive home for having it available. The lunch was also good, and made even more satisfying by all the walking in the heat and humidity done prior.
