Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

We will pick you direct in your hotel and will travel to the first stop: Cenote Hubiku that its name means "Nest of iguanas", is located in the village of Temozón very close to the city of Valladolid and the Archaeological Zone of Chichen Itza.
Its main attraction is the young cenote that is underground and that on its roof has a hole through which a large tree once introduced its roots to reach its freshwaters.
Its emerald waters immediately invite you to cool off in them and the opening in the center of it allows the sun's rays to enter, creating a visual spectacle worth admiring.

At Temozón it is the incredible Tequila Museum Don Tadeo where you will be able to try some of this famous drink.
At the entrance, you will find a colorful mural where you can take the picture for a perfect postal. Upon entering the museum you will find a citizen offering you free tests of this delicious tequila and you can observe how this liqueur is made and taste more of its 10 flavors and if you wish you can buy them. It also has an area of culture, Maya in which the traditional life of the inhabitants of the communities is exposed

Later we are going to the colonial city of Valladolid that is a hospitable city full of history that prides Yucatan. For centuries it has been identified by the richness of the Spanish legacy embodied in its temples and the abolengo of its old neighborhoods. It has an exceptional colonial flavor. Walking through its streets, with its houses painted in vivid colors, the neighborhoods with its churches and of course the imposing convent of San Bernardino de Siena, a palpable mark of the Franciscan presence throughout the peninsula, is to return to the past. Its cozy Main Park offers the shade of its laurels to their own and strangers, and in the evenings the birds fill with their trills the atmosphere, announcing the end of the day.
You will have time to walk all around on your own in this magnificent colonial city and take all the pictures that you want.

4

Finally, the principal attraction that you are waiting for all this trip... The Chichen Itza Light Show! this light and sound show allows us for a few years to visit at night one of the important wonders of the world.
During the night tour of the archaeological area of Chichen Itza and inside the show "The Nights of Kukulkán" we can discover the most important sites of this complex. The temple of the jaguar, that of the great tables and that of the warriors; the ball game, the platform of the skulls or Tzompantli, that of eagles and jaguars and the platform of venus; Kukulkan Castle and the squares of a thousand columns.
