We toured until around 11:30. As we were leaving, it started to rain and the tour buses from Cancun started showing up. I think that is good advice for all the sites.

Thanks again for this info, bitterproffit. Might you recall how you found this guide (or how he found you)? Did he simply approach you near the entrance to the site? And would you have his email or other contact info?
