Itinerary

  • Zona Arqueologica Uxmal

    1 hours 30 minsAdmission Ticket Not Included
    Discover Uxmal, one of the most impressive Mayan cities along the Puuc Route, located 80 km from Mérida in Yucatán. Known as “The Thrice-Built City,” it was founded in the 7th century and stands out for its elegant architectural style and intricate stone mosaics. Among its main highlights are the Pyramid of the Magician, the Nuns Quadrangle, and the Governor’s Palace, masterpieces that reflect the splendor of the Mayan world. Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Uxmal also offers the nighttime videomapping show “Ecos de Uxmal,” a magical experience that brings its ancient walls to life with light and sound. A must-visit destination to experience the grandeur of Mayan culture in Yucatán.
  • Museo Choco-Story Uxmal

    1 hoursAdmission Ticket Not Included
    Enhance your journey with an enriching visit to the Choco-Story Chocolate Museum, conveniently located just steps from the Uxmal archaeological site. This immersive experience offers a captivating exploration of cacao’s legacy—from its sacred significance in ancient Mayan civilization to its evolution into the chocolate enjoyed worldwide today. Set within lush tropical surroundings, the museum invites visitors to stroll along jungle pathways, discover traditional Mayan dwellings, and explore cacao plantations and thoughtfully curated exhibits featuring authentic artifacts and historical insights. A highlight of the visit is the live demonstration showing traditional pre-Hispanic chocolate preparation, complete with an opportunity to taste this ancestral delicacy. Please note: Museum admission is not included in the tour price. However, it is a highly recommended addition, providing a refined cultural and sensory finale to your Uxmal experience.
  • Zona Arqueologica de Kabah

    1 hours 30 minsAdmission Ticket Not Included
    Discover Kabah, one of the most emblematic cities along the Puuc Route and one of the few Mayan sites that preserves its original pre-Hispanic name, meaning “the powerful hand.” Mentioned in the Chilam Balam of Chumayel, Kabah was an important city comparable to Uxmal, connected to it by an ancient sacbé (white road) stretching 18 km. Its most remarkable structure is the Codz Poop, or “Royal Mat,” a masterpiece of Mayan architecture adorned with hundreds of stone masks of the rain god Chaak. Every finely carved detail reflects the artistic complexity and splendor that define the Puuc region. Kabah is a must-visit destination for those seeking to experience the grandeur and mysticism of the Mayan world in Yucatán.
