Chichen Itza

Chichen Itza

Chichen-Itza was the capital of the ancient Mayan imperial and is an impressive sight even if you are not a history buff. It is considered one the the 7 Wonders of the Modern World. The 75 foot Kukulkan pyramid is the main structure on the site, but other important ones are the Temple of Warriors, the Ball Court and the Observatory.

Make sure to check out the cenote on site, considered a sacred well where allegedly many victims were sacrificed to appease the  Mayan Gods.

Your tour guide will teach you about the Mayan culture and the history of the ruins. You will also have free time on site to explore at your own pace and take your pictures, of course!

In addition to your visit to Chichen Itza, this tour includes a stop at a cenote, where you can take a quick dip in what the Mayan’s believed were rejuvenating waters.

This tour includes your lunch.
