“Come out and enjoy our favorite underrated ruin, with a talented local guide, private roundtrip transportation with a driver, great picture ops, tequila tasting stop, a local lunch stop, some time to shop, and even a cenote swim.
Private tours can be taken any day of the week.
Ek Balam is one of the new jewels of Mayan archaeology and our personal favorite! There are incredibly well- preserved stucco sculptures over 1200 years old which you witness up close by climbing the Acropolis, a nearly 100 ft. tall temple. The views are outstanding. Come and see for yourself this Mayan ruin.
Along the return, we make a stop at the Destilería Artesanal de Agave Mayapán, a small but wonderful local distillery that is making tiny batch of Agave where we will taste the local version of what is known as tequila. Since we are not in the Tequila region of Mexico, here it is known as Agave.
In Valladolid, you will find one of the finest examples of colonial architecture in the Yucatan Peninsula. This is where we usually have lunch and enjoy the sights on our way through to one of the archaeological sites. We will stop here to shop as well. You can purchase excellent honey products, such as a honey liqueur called Xtabentun.
