What to expect

Embark on a full-day adventure to discover one of the New Seven Wonders of the World—legendary Chichen Itza and the iconic Kukulcan Pyramid. Uncover the secrets of this ancient archaeological site, refresh yourself with a swim in a peaceful cenote, and capture vibrant photos in the charming colonial town of Valladolid. Enjoy a delicious buffet lunch and a comfortable coach ride between each remarkable stop.

Your journey begins with an hotel pickup, followed by a visit to Cenote Hubiku, a stunning freshwater pool nestled inside a sunlit limestone cave—perfect for a surreal swim. If you'd rather stay dry, head over to Casa Don Tadeo to sample a variety of homemade Tequilas, and get a glimpse of the production process.

Afterward, indulge in a buffet lunch featuring traditional Maya dishes like slow-cooked marinated pork. Then, hop back on the bus for the scenic ride to Chichen Itza. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is home to impressive ruins and well-preserved temples, including the awe-inspiring Kukulcan Pyramid and the majestic Great Ball Court—among the most remarkable and intact structures of their kind.

Before you leave, explore the nearby Sacred Cenote, and then relax on the bus for the final leg of the trip. Your last stop is the peaceful town of Valladolid, where the colorful colonial architecture provides the perfect backdrop for photos. Your tour concludes as you make your way back, filled with unforgettable memories.

Guided Tour of Ek' Balam and Valladolid with Cenote and Lunch

Get a close-up look at Maya history and traditions on this off-the-beaten-track tour. You'll visit the ancient Maya city of Ek' Balam – the most recent to be opened to the public – as well as Yalcoba to swim in the cenote and a stop in Valladolid. Francesca, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Archaeologists only began uncovering Ek' Balam in 1985, and they're still digging away today. It's a more complete site than many others, and you can still imagine daily life in the Maya town going on around you as you explore. But the main reason I enjoy Ek' Balam is that there are so few visitors.'We'll start the adventure with a guided visit of Ek' Balam, which translates as ‘Black Jaguar.' The site has more than 40 structures and its walls formed a maze, while the main pyramid, known as the Acropolis, has a well-preserved entrance surrounded by the open jaws and fangs of a jaguar. It's bigger than even El Castillo at Chichen Itzá. Best of all, you can climb to the top – which few Maya sites allow.Afterwards, we'll head to Yalcoba where you can try your hand at chocolate-making and learn how to craft obsidian at a workshop. After a tequila and mezcal tasting you'll have time to enjoy the crystalline cenote, then tuck into a tasty buffet lunch of typical regional dishes. Lastly, we'll have a quick stop in central Valladolid, a city known for its art and architecture and a picture-perfect medley of colourful colonial buildings and historic churches.

Sian Ka’an Reserve Tour with Boat Trip

The ancient Maya called it ‘Where the Sky Begins' – and there's definitely a touch of heaven to Sian Ka'an. Its mangroves, coral reefs, wildlife and archaeological sites mean that it's both a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a Biosphere Reserve, a rare double that puts it in the Champions League of natural parks. Manon, one of our expert local guides, says, “I first came to Sian Ka'an as a visitor on holidays from Normandy and totally fell in love with it – now I work in this paradise. I come here every day and have never lived the same experience twice.” The adventure begins the moment you step onto the boat to explore the dense mangroves. As you navigate through the reserve, you'll be surrounded by flora and fauna – over 300 species call this place home, including birds, crocodiles and dolphins. As the boat drifts along, your guide will point out unique plant species that thrive in this wetland ecosystem, explaining their vital roles in maintaining the ecological balance. Then, you'll head out into the Caribbean Sea to snorkel in one of the best-preserved reefs in the area. You'll also drop the anchor at a shallow stretch of sand with low tides and crystal-clear waters, known locally as La Piscina. Then, the afternoon is all about unwinding. You'll head to Punta Allen, a small Mayan fishing village, where you can savour some local dishes, before having some time to sit back and relax. It's an idyllic end to a day spent immersed in some of Cancun's most stunning natural scenery.
