Surrounded by incense and ancient chants, this ritual offers a moment of connection and renewal.
After this meaningful experience, take time to explore a local handicraft market, where talented artisans display handmade crafts full of color, culture, and symbolism—a perfect way to connect with Maya creativity and heritage.
To complete your visit to Kaua, enjoy a delicious regional buffet lunch featuring authentic Yucatecan dishes made with traditional ingredients. This stop nourishes body and soul, setting the tone for the unforgettable day that awaits at Chichén Itzá.
