Tour Details
At the designated time, our team will collect you from your accommodation in Cancun and embark on a journey to the awe-inspiring sacred city of Chichen Itza. This area was one of the foremost centers of governance and spirituality in the Mayan civilization.
Following a scenic 3-hour drive, we will arrive at the archaeological site, where you will join an expertly guided tour lasting about 1 hour. Within this time, you will admire notable structures such as the remarkable Castle or Pyramid of Kukulkan, the Ball Court, the Temple of the Warriors, among other significant monuments that have intrigued scholars and adventurers through the ages. After this guided segment, an hour of free time will be allocated for you to explore the site at leisure and capture countless photographs.
Our journey continues to the Hacienda Selva Maya, home of the Saamal cenote. Here, you will be treated to 2 hours for relaxation and swimming in its crystal-clear waters, complemented by a delightful buffet lunch featuring regional specialties, all set amidst a stunning natural landscape.
Once rejuvenated, we will proceed to the picturesque city of Valladolid. Our first stop will be at the Xoul Art & Mezcal gallery for a 30- to 45-minute visit, a cultural haven showcasing the artistry of Mexico.
At this location, you will encounter exclusive creations including black clay, intricately carved alebrijes, embroidered textiles, and talavera pottery. You will also have the chance to meet the artists and hear the captivating narratives behind each work. Additionally, the gallery features a sensory experience with artisanal mezcal tastings, presenting a unique fusion of art, culture, and flavor.
After this enriching experience, you will have a half-hour to stroll around the enchanting historic center of Valladolid, where the vibrant colonial architecture and serene ambiance await your discovery.
Ultimately, we will return to Cancun and conclude your adventure, dropping you off at your hotel between 11 and 13 hours post pickup.
