Prepare for a magical experience in Quintana Roo. These towns are full of radiant beauty and well-preserved Mayan archaeological remains that are a must-visit!
Early in the morning, you'll visit the archaeological site of Tulum. The ancient Mayan city of Tulum is situated on cliffs overlooking the Caribbean Sea. This fortified city was one of the few Mayan cities that the Spanish found inhabited when they arrived in South America. At the end of the tour, you'll be treated to a chocolate tasting. Did you know? Derived from the Nahuatl word (the Aztec language) "xocolatl", chocolate comes from Mexico!
Your second stop will be the archaeological site of Cobá, located inland some 40 km from Tulum and 105 km from Playa del Carmen. This ancient Mayan city, the most powerful in northern Yucatán and rival to Chichen Itza, occupies an immense territory of 70 km2. The presence of five lakes and lagoons nearby certainly favoured its development. Most of the site is still buried in the forest, with only the pyramids exposed. You'll admire the impressive Nohoch Mul temple, the highest pyramid on the peninsula at 42 metres. To whet your appetite, the tour will be followed by a tequila tasting.
Continue your adventure with a swim in a sacred Cenote, snorkelling in the crystal-clear waters. You can admire the rock formations, illuminated by natural light, which reveal the hidden wonders of the underground world. End this unforgettable day with a delicious buffet lunch, savouring the rich, authentic flavours of Mexican cuisine.
You will live a unique and sensational experience with a comprehensive day tour! Dive deep into Mexican culture by visiting Tulum, Cobá, and a cenote, and sampling some of its incredible cuisine.
