Embark on an early guided tour to Chichén Itzá, the ancient Maya site, and avoid the crowds. Your journey includes roundtrip transportation from Mérida. Explore one of the Seven Wonders of the World with an expert guide. Chichén Itzá, the enigmatic city and ceremonial center, was the heartbeat of Maya society. Admire the ancient architecture of El Castillo and witness the ancient field where the Maya would gather to watch and play pitz – a pre-Hispanic ball game. Afterward, cool off at a sacred cenote, swimming in the warm freshwater pools just as the Maya did centuries ago. Conclude your guided tour with a delectable buffet lunch featuring local Mexican dishes before boarding the bus back to Mérida.
