Highlights
- Chichen Itza - Your journey begins with a convenient pickup by your driver, who will escort you to the initial destination. At the eatery, you’re welcomed to savor an exquisite buffet featuring local specialties of Yucatecan gastronomy. Post dining, we proceed to the Chichen Itza archaeological site, where you’ll enjoy a guided tour led by an expert certified by Mexico’s Secretary of Tourism, followed by leisure time to independently explore the magnificent ruins.
- Cenote Saamal - En route, we make a stop at Saamal to experience a revered CENOTE SAGRADO (meaning ‘Cavern with Water’ in Mayan), nestled within the lush Caribbean jungle of the Yucatan Peninsula. The tour’s cost includes admission to this sacred site, where you can partake in a refreshing dip in the cenote’s clear, subterranean waters, which the Maya consider to be safeguarded by a mythical jungle guardian known as an ALUX. Additionally, Saamal boasts an exceptional array of authentic Maya handicrafts crafted by local communities, available for purchase at competitive prices.
- Valladolid - On the return to Riviera Maya or Cancun, we take a brief detour to explore the historic center of Valladolid, situated in the Yucatan’s core. Here, you’ll witness the grandeur of Colonial Mexico through the architecture of its edifices, temples, and the Church of San Servacio, the region’s most ancient church, initiated in 1543 following Valladolid’s establishment. This landmark faces the town’s central square and park.

memorable - I am disappointed because on the picture the cenote that we visited during the tour is different from the actual. I expected the same cenote as posted on the picture but it’s not. I asked our tour guide why is it that it was different and they have no idea, but anyways I enjoyed the tour to chichen itza and tiquila tasting.
