Discover Chichén Itzá, Izamal, Cenote & the local cuisine

We will begin our adventure by meeting at the designated point at 6:00 a.m. We’ll set off early to be the first to arrive at Chichén Itzá. In fact, we might get there before the gates even open, ensuring we’re ready to enter well ahead of the crowds. This way, we’ll also avoid the heat. After you explore and take in the wonders of this ancient Mayan city, we’ll head either to a small local market or to a regional restaurant to enjoy traditional regional cuisine. Following this, we’ll drive 35 minutes to the home of a family fortunate enough to have a cenote on their property. This cenote, though open to the public, is rarely visited and incredibly beautiful. It features stalactites, stalagmites, and underground caves that extend into depths yet to be fully explored. After the cenote, we’ll visit the magical city of Izamal, also known as the Yellow City, one of the most iconic towns in Yucatán. Here, we’ll explore the Convent of San Antonio de Padua, the grand pyramid of Kinich Kakmó, and some artisan shops. *I’m not allowed to guide people inside the archaeological site, as there is currently a policy that only official guides are permitted to do so. However, I can arrange for the group to have a private official guide for a lower cost than the official price. For example, in a group of 5 people, each person would only need to contribute $8 USD to cover the guide’s fee.
