Itinerary
Merida’s Best Kept Secret! Amongst and beyond the lovely tourist shops in Centro, Merida has an extensive and eclectic mix of spectacular shops that most tourists (and often locals) will never see. Some of Merida’s best shops are on streets with less traffic, in overlooked neighborhoods, on the second floor of a building or behind unassuming doors. The Ultimate “Shopping” Experience is curated tour that introduces you to 7-8 of Merida’s most unique shops ranging from very sophisticated boutiques to purposeful cooperatives to lovely family-owned cottage industry shops. With a theme of unique and quality merchandise, stores range to accommodate a variety of budgets for both men and women. Items may include textiles, various art, pottery, natural health and wellness products, shoes, curiosities, hammocks, leather, gifts, perfume, jewelry, décor, blown glass, local and national one-of-a-kind artisanal items, cloths, antique and vintage merchandise and other treasures. *30 min per shop.

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).
