About the tour
Your private adventure begins at Ek Balam, one of the most fascinating and less-crowded Maya cities in the Yucatán Peninsula. Once an important center of the ancient kingdom, this site is famous for its impressive monuments and exquisitely carved sculptures. You will visit the Acropolis, home to the tomb of the great Lord of Ek Balam, and have the opportunity to climb one of its towering pyramids, considered the second tallest in Yucatán. From the top, you’ll admire breathtaking jungle views stretching endlessly around this powerful archaeological city.
Next, you will continue to the legendary ruins of Chichén Itzá, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Accompanied by your private professional guide, you will walk through the heart of this ancient city while uncovering its secrets of astronomy, mythology, philosophy, and daily life. Stand before iconic landmarks such as El Castillo (the Kukulkán Pyramid), the Great Ball Court, and sacred ceremonial platforms, gaining a profound understanding of the Maya civilization.
Your journey then leads you to an authentic Maya community, where you will experience living traditions and local culture firsthand. Here, you will enjoy a delicious buffet of traditional Mexican dishes, followed by a refreshing swim in a sacred Maya cenote. Surrounded by crystal-clear waters, rock formations, and a tranquil natural setting, you’ll learn the history and spiritual meaning behind these sacred underground pools.
This private experience offers the perfect blend of culture, adventure, history, and gastronomy, designed to create an unforgettable connection with the Maya world.
