Chichén Itzá Day Trip

Starting the day with an early start, we'll head to the ancient Maya city of Chichén Itzá.

Upon arrival, the first stop will be the pyramid dedicated to the God Kukulkán, also known as “El Castillo”. With your professional guide, you'll learn about the temple that dominated the religious life of Chichén Itzá.

The guided tour continues with the history of Chichén Itzá and an exploration of the Temple of the Warriors, which features columns bearing war scenes.

Other notable buildings visited include El Osario, a pyramid with a cave, and the El Caracol observatory, an advanced astronomical structure.

Following the tour, you'll have one hour of free time to explore the site and take pictures. Afterward, we will dine at a local restaurant with a buffet lunch featuring local specialties like roast chicken, pork, rice, beans, and handmade tortillas.

In the afternoon, we'll visit a nearby cenote, where you'll have 30 minutes to swim. It is recommended to bring a swimsuit and a towel. The tour concludes back at the meeting point in Merida, taking approximately 9 to 10 hours.
