Come with us on this day trip to the Mucuyché Hacienda to relive the splendour of Yucatán's Henequen Era. We'll have a guided tour of the estate and you'll even get to take a dip in its majestic cenotes.

Day Trip Details

At the designated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Merida and head towards the Mucuyché Hacienda, located in Abalá. After a 1-hour journey, we'll begin a self-guided tour of the Mucuyché Hacienda, whose name means 'tree of the dove'.

During the tour, we will discuss the estate's 17th-century history and its significance in the Henequen industry. After the industry declined, the hacienda closed for many years, but much of its original state has been preserved, allowing us to appreciate its authentic beauty.

After the tour, you will have 3 hours to enjoy the spectacular cenotes around the estate. You can swim in the Carlota Cenote, which has a depth of up to 7 metres (23 feet) and is named after Empress Carlota, who visited in 1865. You will also be able to explore the Azul Maya Cenote. To travel between the cenotes, you can cross a canal by swimming or walking along a stone path.

Finally, we will return to Merida and conclude this 6-hour day trip at your hotel.
