Highlights
Visit the archeological site of Uxmal + a chocolate museum + a beautiful cenote with crystal-clear waters, all in one day on a private tour from Merida.
The first stop of the tour will be the archeological site of Uxmal. This is an ancient Mayan City, as important as others like Chichen Itza, Palenque, and Tikal. This big city used to control over 350 villages around.
You will fall in love with the pyramids, history, and legacy of this city. Then come with us to a chocolate museum, to understand why cacao was so important for the Mayas.
Cacao has been used as a type of money to exchange goods, some chocolate-based beverages were given only to governors as this was a direct connection with their gods.
Finally, at the end of the tour, visit one of the most mesmerizing cenotes in the region. This is an open-type cenote with turquoise waters. Swim, relax, and enjoy.
This tour is the best way to know Merida, its culture, heritage, history, archeology, gastronomy, and nature.
