Chichen Itza &
Ek Balam Ruins

Tour Description

Chichen Itza 

Step into the world of the ancient Maya with a full-day journey that combines two of the region’s most fascinating archaeological treasures.

Your adventure begins with hotel pick-up and a scenic drive through the lush landscapes of the Yucatán Peninsula. First stop: Chichen Itza, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. Spend time exploring its iconic pyramids, temples, and ball courts as our certified guide brings history to life with engaging stories about this once-powerful city.

Ek Balam

Next, continue to Ek Balam, a hidden gem that feels like stepping back in time. Climb its towering structures, admire detailed stucco carvings, and take in panoramic views of the surrounding jungle. This site is less crowded, giving you a more intimate connection with Mayan heritage.

Afterwards, enjoy a relaxing stop in the charming colonial town of Valladolid. Here, you’ll savor a traditional Yucatecan lunch and, if time allows, stroll the colorful streets for a taste of local life.

Finally, sit back and relax as we return you comfortably to your hotel in the Riviera Maya.
