Full description
Embark on a fascinating full-day excursion from Mérida to Uxmal, an archaeological gem considered the pinnacle of Puuc art and architecture in the Mayan world. This UNESCO World Heritage Site offers a window into the past of one of the most powerful cities of the Classic civilization. We travel early to ensure arrival before the major crowds, allowing you to enjoy the mysticism and splendor of the place in the tranquility of the morning. Our experience includes a certified guided tour where an expert will reveal the secrets and deep history behind each structure.
You will tour the majestic Pyramid of the Magician, unique for its oval base and impressive height, and admire the intricate detail of the Quadrangle of the Nuns facade, famous for its complex carvings and symbolism. We will also explore the Governor's Palace, often hailed as one of the most beautiful buildings ever constructed in pre-Hispanic America. After the explanation, you will have free time to capture spectacular photographs and assimilate the grandeur of Uxmal at your own pace. This is an essential cultural journey that promises to be unforgettable.
