EK BALAM MAYAN RUINS TOURS

FROM CANCUN, PLAYA DEL CARMEN, AND THE MAYAN RIVIERA
* AREAS SOUTH OF CANCUN WILL REQUIRE AN ADDITIONAL COST.

The complex also features a number of smaller temples, altars, and living quarters. The chief pyramid, known as the tower, is comparable in size (100 feet high, 517 feet long, and 200 feet wide) with northeastern Yucatan's most remarkable Mayan buildings.

The Private Express w/Lunch & Ik Kil & Ek Balam tour generally departs Cancun at 8 am . We go directly to Chichen Itza then to Ik Kil (an ecological park) for a swim (fantastic "open to the sky, blue cenote" swim hole) and a buffet lunch. After lunch, we'll visit Ek Balam, which has only been open to the public for two years.

• Round trip air-conditioned transportation exclusively for your group

SUGGESTED ITINERARY:

We suggest a 7am departure (no later than 8am ) to arrive at C-Itza at 9:30 before the crowds and heat. Stay there for 2.5 hrs then go to Ik Kil which is minutes away. Jump into the cenote, enjoy the gardens and after sit down and enjoy the buffet. Depart for Ek Balam around 1:30pm and arrive at 2:45pm . Guided tour takes about 1 hr including climbing the ruins. Take a few photos and depart around 4:15pm and arrive into Cancun around 6:00pm. You can easily do this tour faster and return around 5pm if you like.

ADDITIONAL NOTES:

• Tours are made in air-conditioned vans, not buses.  Therefore, the maximum number of people to a vehicle is 14.  If you have more people in your group, you will need two vehicles.  The transportation cost is fixed - that's why more people in a vehicle makes the price per person go down.

• This tour requires a 20% deposit at the time of booking via Credit Card or PayPal. 

• There is no cancellation fee if cancelled or changed before noon the day before the tour.
