This day, you will meet your guide at Chichén Itzá entrance (guided visit included).

Considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World and listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Chichén Itzá is undoubtedly the best-known archaeological site in the Mayan world. Among its constructions, discovery of the Ball Game, where it is possible to decipher certain rules of this sacred ritual on its walls, and of the Castillo de Kukulkán, the pyramid where, every year, a rare phenomenon occurs for the equinox of summer.

Then, we recommend you to visit Izamal (visit not included), a small town where all the facades of the historic centre were painted yellow to receive Pope John Paul II. Finally, arrive to Mérida and check-in at your hotel.

Then, head to Santa Ana Market where another tasting awaits you. Finally, at Santiago Park, you will discover “street” gastronomy.

Free afternoon in Mérida.
