Full description
Discover the majesty of Tulum and Coba, swim in a jungle cenote, and connect with the living roots of Mayan culture through a sacred ceremony and cocoa and honey demonstrations.
Embark on an unforgettable journey into the heart of the ancient Mayan world, an experience that goes beyond traditional sightseeing to connect with the history, traditions, and natural beauty of the Yucatán Peninsula. Your adventure begins at Tulum, the legendary walled city perched on cliffs overlooking the Caribbean Sea. Alongside an expert guide, you will explore its temples and ceremonial structures while discovering its strategic importance as a trading port.
The journey continues deep into the jungle toward a community where Mayan traditions are still very much alive. You will participate in a meaningful ceremony led by a local shaman to connect with the ancestral energies of the land. Furthermore, you will discover the secrets of cacao, from plant to chocolate, and learn about the sacred Melipona bee, revered for centuries for the medicinal properties of its honey.
After this cultural immersion, refresh yourself in the crystal-clear waters of Cenote Mariposa, surrounded by lush vegetation and limestone formations. To recharge, enjoy a delicious regional buffet lunch featuring fresh local ingredients. Finally, explore the ruins of Coba, an ancient political center surrounded by tropical forest. You will travel through its trails and "sacbés" on a traditional Mayan tricycle, an authentic way to admire the tallest pyramid in the region before concluding this day filled with mysticism and nature.
