Ek Balam Self-Guided Walking Tour with Audio Guide
Overview
Ek Balam is the incredible site where ancient Mayans kept the tombs of their kings. Far less crowded than Chichen Itza but no less exciting, these ruins offer a fascinating glimpse into the distant past. Visit the awe-inspiring Ek Balam pyramid, learn about the Mayan civilization’s rise and fall, and uncover the significance behind the site’s ancient artwork. Even better, you’ll do all this completely on your own schedule, without the hassle of a tour group!
