Leo Zilva Tattoo Studio

Leo did an excellent job on my Mayan jaguar glyph. I did my research beforehand and booked over one month in advance. I couldn’t be happier with the result.

Leo is an amazing artist with a very clean shop. While on my trip he was able to squeeze me into his incredibly busy calendar and helped me design the tattoo to bring my vision to life. Thank you Leo and wishing you the best 🙏🏽

Leo was very accommodating of my travel plans and was able to get me in the same day! He did an amazing job on my piece and even made a "fusion" of different examples I liked to help cover up a DIY tattoo I had.

I'm from Las Vegas and I never imagined that in Valladolid, Yucatan would be a place that you can get a tattoo from. Leo is really talented and professional and the equipment he used is very advanced. of course you will feel pain (I do not tolerate pain) but the experience wasn't that painful and for the size of my tattoo I barely felt it. I really recommend this place if you want a great tattoo. A tip of advice.... make your appointment on time and you wont regret the experience.

We went to Valladolid specifically to have Leo grace us with his art. What started as an adventure ended as an experience of a lifetime. Leo’s assistant was very helpful and quick to book us in his studio. My objective was to convert a nasty scar into something which embodied the near miss which created it, melded with elements of my childhood. The resulting scorpion is simply astounding. My girlfriend wanted a specific lotus flower design which she had in her mind, and Leo translated that too into the perfect tattoo. My advice to all is to allow Leo the artistic license to create. You will not be disappointed. We can’t wait to go back.

My name is Alana from the USA. I got a tattoo from Leo and I love it! He is very kind and talented, I feel like he really listened to what I wanted. My Spanish is not so good, but his English is decent, so that was helpful! I would highly recommend him and his studio

He was super nice and friendly. The price is cheap (1000 pesos for three little tattoos). Spontaneously we could do our tattoos at the same day because he had one hour free. I can really recommend to go there!!

Leo is a very nice guy! He is a very professional tattoo artist and his studio is very clean. I just had a small Mayan glyph design and it cost 500 pesos and took under an hour. If you ever go to Valladolid, go to him! I highly recommend him.

I have waited over 24 years to complete a tattoo so finding Leo was a relief. My experience with Leo was amazing. From setting my appointment from the states to getting the work done was worry free. He is excellent artist.

Leo got us in short notice on our vacation & did an amazing job. My tattoo turned out even more perfect than I had imagined!

Leo always has been very professional and very talented. We love our tattoos and will always recommend him to our friends and family.

Leo Zilva has been a tattoo artist for over 10 years. In addition to making himself available, everything is done to make you comfortable and safe. His work is great. I commend him.

After hearing amazing words from people in Valladolid we decided to check Leo works, we did two tattoos with my girlfriend and Leo was super delicate, precise and made our tattoos even better than the ideas we had about it. We will defo come back and really hope you will travel in Europe at some point to add more pieces from your skilled hands 🙏🙏

Leo was so patient when we were fumbling upon the choices for our first tattoos. He did a great job and also offered to drop us back to our Airbnb.

I was there yesterday for four small Tattoos, Leo is super talented and nice!! I love them all and i will def come back again. Awesome Quality for a cheap price.

Leo is an amazing tattoo artist! He made a sketch from my words and in an hour I became the proud owner of a wonderful new tattoo ;)) Highly recommended!

He did two tattoos with a very very thin needle. It takes a great tattoo artist to do such a fine work. Just incredible, thank you!

I come to Leo with a tattoo request and he not only make it possible he went out an d beyond to make sure I got it and it was quick and painless possible. Definitely will come back. He is the best.

Leo was very helpful, nice, and did a really good job. I would definitely recommend!

Great experience with Leo! He was very professional and accommodating. I love my tattoo!
