Chichen Itza / Chichen Itza – Where stone tells stories
At Chichen Itza, the ancient city reveals itself through monumental temples, sacred spaces, and architectural precision. This is more than a visit to a famous ruin—it is an encounter with one of the most influential civilizations of Mesoamerica.

Kaua / Gastronomic Demonstration & Lunch
Yucatan's cuisine is a blend of ingredients used by the ancient Mayans (with corn being the main one) and flavors brought by the Spanish during the colonial period. The most commonly used condiments and spices include pumpkin seeds, oregano, purple onion, sour orange, sweet pepper, lime, tomato, annatto, xkatik chili, habanero chili, max chili, and cilantro. Yucatán was known as "the land of pheasant and deer" due to the use of these species as main ingredients in its dishes. Currently, they have been replaced by pork and turkey meat.Following the presentation, indulge in our regional cuisine crafted by a restaurant with a distinctive-h certification.

Valladolid / Cenote NoolHa -Sacred water and serenity
In the jungle, a natural cenote offers a moment of refreshment and connection with the landscape. Its cool, crystal-clear waters provide a striking contrast to the warm Yucatán sun and a deeper sense of place.

/ Zipline over the cenote
For travelers seeking a more dynamic experience, the unlimited zipline adds a sense of excitement and a unique perspective over the cenote’s natural setting.

/ Regional buffet
A generous buffet meal brings together local ingredients and traditional flavors, turning lunch into another meaningful part of the experience.

Valladolid / Valladolid
Located in the eastern part of Yucatan, it was the scene of rebellions and struggles between conquerors and the conquered. This place was an important political and religious center. Experience a 20-minute break at the central plaza in this quaint yet picturesque locale.

/ Return with a deeper connection
By the end of the day, this experience leaves you with more than photographs it offers a richer understanding of the history, flavors, and natural beauty of the Mayan world.
