Chichen itza, cenote and magic Izamal
Overview
Avoid crowds, beat the heat, no tourist traps, get to swim in a natural beautiful cenote and support Mayan communities
Our 5:50 am departure will guarantee to be the first group inside Chichen Itza and take amazing pictures. We will start with a photo session from the best angles of the Mayan pyramid without people. Then we'll unveil the importance and history of this ancient city, 2 hours and a half to discover the city with free time included. Afterwards we will go to a beautiful cenote that belongs to a Mayan community, the cenote has not been modified like many others, so it is very natural and amazing to swim in. The community has a restaurant and the menu is all about Yucatan cuisine, another 2 hours to enjoy and eat as well. Then we'll hit the road again towards Merida, an average one-hour drive to Merida.
