Lovely day in Campeche - We did more than I anticipated: a detailed market tour, a museum. A visit to Casa 6, cathedral in preparation for a wedding. We could choose any restaurant and had a lovely lunch st a seafood restaurant. Enjoyable day

It’s a 10 hour wonderful way to spend a day! - Having been in Merida for a month, we decided it was time for another full day trip. We booked our tour and were presently surprised when we discovered that we would be the only people on our tour. Our tour guide was Rosendo Pech and he was full of wonderful stories & historical information during the drive to Becal. He took us to a wonderful artisan’s shop where Rosendo perfectly translated the artist’s detailed account of how they make the hats. We toured Becal & then drove to the historic city of Campeche. We toured the fort, learned the history of the fort and then had am amazing lunch at a wonderful small hotel. Finally we toured the Campeche Centro and learned Campeche’s interesting history. REALLY it’s worth the trip!
