EK Balam Ruins

“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.

We stop next to a refreshing cenote. Cenotes are considered the entrance to the underworld by the Mayans. We’ll have a dip in crystal clear waters and see interesting rock formations while we rest a bit and cool off to continue our journey thru Mayaland.

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. Considered a sacred city ruled by a living god and you can see and touch many of the temples and ruins in this wonderful ancient testament of the Mayans. It is a not-to-be-missed site.
