Progreso Day Trip

At 11 am, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Mérida and head to Progreso. After 40 minutes on the road, we'll arrive in Progreso, which is officially named Progreso de Castro in honor of its historical significance. As we walk through the streets, we'll explain its founding at the end of the 19th century and its history with maritime trade.

We'll stroll along the boardwalk area and discuss the city's importance as a port for cargo and tourist cruise ships, highlighted by its 4-mile (6-kilometre) long quay.

You'll then have around 3 hours of free time to enjoy the turquoise water at the white sandy beaches and sample local gastronomy at one of the restaurants on the boardwalk.

After spending 4 hours sightseeing, we'll drop you off back at your hotel in Mérida.
