The journey begins early in the morning, with a suggested pickup time of 8:00 AM, though you have the flexibility to choose a different time if preferred. The first destination is Ek Balam, a stunning archaeological site located approximately 60 miles from Chichen Itza. It is less crowded yet equally fascinating as the World Wonder. Upon arrival, you will spend 2 to 3 hours exploring the site with a certified guide, who will share insights into the history and culture of the Mayans. As the day warms up, you will visit a beautiful cenote with refreshing waters for a swim and enjoy a delicious buffet lunch. Before returning to your hotel, there is an optional stop at the colonial town of Valladolid for shopping, strolling, and perhaps enjoying an ice cream. The tour concludes with a drop-off at your hotel.
