Itinerary
One of the most important archaeological sites in the world! Chichen Itza is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, a “must do” tour when visiting Cancun. An expert guide will lead the way and share the exciting facts and folklore of Chichen Itza and the Mayan civilization. See the ball court, the Temple of a Thousand Columns and of course, the imposing Kukulkan Pyramid.
Cenotes are unique to the Yucatan Peninsula, natural limestone sinkholes of incredible natural beauty that are perfect for a refreshing swim in a jungle oasis. Immerse yourself in the crystalline waters and admire the spectacular rock formations!
The Mayan ruins of Ek Balam may be less famous than Chichen Itza but they are spectacular! Climb the incredible Acropolis and admire the exceptional carvings and art of the ancient Maya that has been so well preserved and maintained and enjoy the view from the top

5Playa del Carmen to chichen itza tour
Rafael was a great host. Would highly recommend this tour. Wish we had more time at chichen itza to see the museum. Still 10/10
5W Mayan Lesson and Experience
Excellent guide and drivers, Rafael and Jonathon. Really appreciated their hospitality, guidance, and commitment to welcoming and educating us into the Mayan community and culture. We are grateful for their efforts and the lovely experience we had. It was a very hot, out of their control of course but they were very considerate, I recommend bringing things to keep cool.

5The leg room in the van...
The leg room in the van is a little small, but the trip is definitely worth it. Jesús and Alex were a great tour guide and driver. Being able to walk to the top of Ek'Balam is truly amazing, and of course Chichen Itza and the Cenote are both also great

About Cancun
Cancun pairs a long ribbon of white-sand beaches and turquoise Caribbean water with Maya ruins, cenotes and islands all within easy reach.
The Hotel Zone curves along a narrow strip of land between the Caribbean and the Nichupté Lagoon, lined with resorts and beaches such as Playa Delfines, where the sand is powder-soft and the sea glows in every shade of blue. Downtown Cancun, on the mainland, is where locals eat and shop, with taquerías and evening stalls around Parque de las Palapas.
Top-ranked sights in Cancun: Chichen Itza, Tulum Archeological Site, Isla Mujeres.
