We took a tour of Uxmal and Kabah when were had one day free from doctors. The tour company was awesome. We had a private car with a tour guide. The cost was only $45 (525 pesos) each which included lunch. The tour was from 9am until 5pm.
Our guide spoke perfect English and gave us an amazing amount of history and information about the Mayan culture that I was not aware of. You can request Geraldo Guardian for your tour, he was fabulous!
The tour company website is below. I will be adding a video of my pictures from the site. The picture of my mother and I at the top is from Uxmal. It is amazing and gorgeous.
The tour company will pick people up from the airport and take them to their hotel if desired and take people where they want to go, if they don't want to use a taxi in getting from appointment to appointment.
Needless to say, they offer tours to everywhere around Yucatan, including Chichen Itza, Uxmal, Cancun, Kabah, the beach and everywhere else.
This tour company also has chauffeured Hillary Clinton around when she was first lady.

I had front and back crowns, some grafting, many x-rays, a full cleaning, 4 fillings, and a mouth guard by a different dentist in Merida for $800 in 2010. He did a beautiful job. The only off-putting part of Merida are the arrogant and self-involved North Americans who live there. The Americans working at the English Library down the street couldn't pull themselves away from conversations about themselves to help anybody. An American woman in the dentist's waiting room (where I was) was ripping pages out of magazines for patients to read because she was a "designer" and needed ideas (try that in an office in the US). Also, bermuda grass or other hearty grasses grow abundantly in the hot and humid Merida climate and everybody suffers from bad allergies (bring your medication).
