You will see its great pyramids, even climbing up to the top of one of them, considered the second tallest pyramid in the Yucatan Peninsula. From this spot, admire how the jungle surrounds this incredible archaeological site. You will also visit the Acropolis and the tomb of the great Lord of Ek Balam. After learning all the secrets of this incredible archaeological site, you will have free time to continue exploring on your own.
From here, head to explore the Mayan city of Chichen Itza. Explore the place hand in hand with your professional guide, who will provide you the necessary knowledge about Mayan archeology and culture, so it will be easy for you to imagine how the Mayans once inhabited this city. As you stroll through the well-preserved ruins of Chichen Itza, you will also learn about Mayan mythology, philosophy, and cosmology, to gain a deep understanding of the meaning behind the stone sculptures and platforms. Your guide will not miss any detail!
Then, it is time to meet an authentic Mayan community, and get to know their traditions and culture up close. Here you will be lucky enough to taste an incredible Mexican buffet lunch, and afterward, it is time for a refreshing swim in an incredible Mayan cenote. Here you can contemplate its crystal clear waters, and its wonderful waterfall and learn the history behind these sacred places.
You cannot miss this unique experience full of culture, adventure, and gastronomy!
