Departing from Cancun or Playa del Carmen, the Chichen Itza Tour is the most visited archaeological site in Mexico accompanied by an expert guide who will explain in depth the characteristics of the place and the Mayan culture.

We will learn from an archaeologist everything about the philosophy, cosmology and mythology behind this impressive pyramid: the meaning of stone carvings, pyramids, platforms, ball games, and much more.

We will also visit the Temple of the Jaguars, the Temple of the Warriors and the famous Castle or Temple of Kukulkan. In this structure, at dawn and dusk during the spring and autumn equinoxes, the corner of the pyramid projects the shadow of Kukulkan, the god of the feathered serpent, creating the illusion of a snake sliding down the northern slope with the movement of the Sun.

Discover the important role played by this great pre-Columbian city in the Mayan civilization and its function as a center of worship and pilgrimage until the arrival of the Spaniards. Even today, it is considered a sacred place by some inhabitants of the Yucatan Peninsula.

Afterwards, guests will enjoy a local buffet typical of the region, ending up at a peaceful Cenote where guests may swim among spring waters that sprout from the ground for 45 minutes, and finally we head towards Valladolid where tourists have time to explore.
