Mayan experience without the crowds and hassle - Picked up from hotel in aircon coach, collected all other guests and made our way towards Coba. Guide Santiago spoke to us about the day’s layout whilst providing coffee and cookies, he gave information about Coba, the Mayan history and lots of information, very knowledgeable. Arrived at Coba not as busy or hectic as Chechin Itza got tickets and straight in, you have the option to walk or take a tuck tuck, take the tuck tuck this site is far larger than Itza, and for 180 pesos you get took round the site without walking and it’s a great way to see it, and it’s very warm and humid so helped make the tour so much better, the main pyramid looks bigger than Itza and because it’s in the jungle and not as well known you can get into the shade, to keep cooler and not a lot of crowds and there are no vendors inside at all. Taken round site by Santiargo explained everything and was an excellent tour , there are toilets and a couple of vendors outside but no hassle We returned to the coach and went to the Cenotes, the first was a ceremonial one no swimming took place in the ceremony more information about how they were formed went to the second Cenote, toilets, changing rooms , 61 steps down to the water a spiral staircase ropes in both sides to assist you there are even kayaks in this one After swim went for food a delicious buffet, really well cooked pork and chicken and very tasty , after hibiscus drinks and dessert went to Mayan family home , showed round home, got to prepare Tacos and tasted them while still warm, choice of spicy sauces or honey, both very tasty, tip for this part is take some apples for the owner as she really likes them and they are not a natural fruit for the area, got back on coach and dropped off at hotel another very interesting and enjoyable experience
