About this experience

In the heart of the Yucatán Peninsula, between the jungle and the whispering wind, begins an adventure to Chichén Itzá — the ancient Mayan city that continues to amaze with its architecture, symbolism, and astronomical precision. In front of the majestic Pyramid of Kukulkán, the sun lights up each stone as if revealing ancient secrets: the Maya observed the stars, measured time, and built temples that still stand as a testament to their greatness. The echo in the Ball Court and the grandeur of the Temple of the Warriors tell stories that come alive with every step.

After exploring this sacred site, the journey continues to a crystal-clear cenote — a natural sanctuary where turquoise waters invite you to dive into a moment of peace, as if time paused among roots and stones.

The journey ends in Valladolid, a Pueblo Mágico of colonial charm and vibrant colors, where Mayan and Spanish heritage blend in flavors, aromas, and warm smiles.

It’s an experience where you are the protagonist.
