Highlights

This tour is a deep dive into one of Yucatán’s most authentic social traditions: the cantina. This is not a typical bar crawl, it’s a cultural experience where every stop tells a story rooted in history, humor, and everyday local life. The cantinas in Merida are very fun and traditional establishments where Meridans go to have some drinks while having some "botanas" (snacks) and listening to popular music in a very friendly environment. Get to experience this atmosphere on this walking tour where everybody is friends with everybody.

About Mérida

Mérida, capital of Yucatán, is a Spanish colonial city of grand boulevards and mansions, a base for Maya ruins, cenotes and flamingo lagoons.

Francisco de Montejo the Younger founded Mérida in 1542 on the site of a Maya town, and stone from its temples went into the cathedral and houses. The Plaza Grande is the heart of the city, with the cathedral of San Ildefonso, the Governor's Palace, whose walls are covered by murals of Maya history, and the Casa de Montejo, with an ornate carved façade. The low colonial houses of the centre gave the city its nickname, the White City.

Top-ranked sights in Mérida: Chacchoben, Merida Cathedral (Catedral de San Ildefonso), Main Square (Plaza Grande).
