Virtually
untouched since the Mayan civilization mysteriously disappeared centuries
ago, the Yucatan Peninsula offers unsurpassed beauty, history and adventure.
Come explore its natural and ancient treasures on this ten-day lodging tour.
This journey of adventure and discovery begins with a visit to
Chichen
Itza, one of the most excavated and best preserved of all archaeological
sites in Mexico. Climb El Castillo pyramid and gaze beyond the largest ball
court in Meso-America for a fantastic glimpse into the Mayan past.
Move on to the beautiful city of Merida, the capital of the Yucatan. From
our centrally located hotel, spend the day in the many shops, museums and
zocalos of this charming city, home to the descendants of the Mayan civilization
whose culture is now laced with Spanish influence.
Travel next to the ruins of Uxmal where intricately carved temple facades
pay
homage to Chac, the Mayan rain god.
Drive on to the part city of Campeche,
the only walled city in the New World., where, from our hotel deep in the
heart of the city, we can explore the remnants of its colourful past.
Continue down the ancient Mayan trade route to the ruins of Palenque, lost
in the jungle for hundreds of years. Marvel at the magnificent pyramid known
as the Temple of the Inscriptions and take a guided jungle tour to learn about
this unique ecosystem and its plant and animal life. After such an adventurous
day, relax and cool off in the inviting waters of Misol Ha waterfall.
Cross the Yucatan peninsula for a night in
the Caribbean port city of Chetumal. Take a refreshing swim in the
Cenote
Azul before heading up the coast to the ruins of Tulum, the only Mayan city
built along the sea. Discover
Xel-Ha
marine Park where you can snorkel in the protected lagoon and explore underground
caverns. Enjoy personal time relaxing on miles of unspoilt beaches or take
a scuba lesson to get a closer look at this underwater paradise.
Spend your final nights enjoying Caribbean nightlife in
Playa del Carmen, before ending this magical trip in Cancun.
