Ek Balam is one of the most astonishing and less crowded Mayan archaeological sites in Mexico. Don't miss the opportunity to visit!

Description of the experience

We will visit the archaeological site of Ek Balam, home to one of the largest constructions in Mesoamerica. During the visit, we will have the opportunity to climb to the top of the acropolis and admire its unparalleled, well-preserved decoration, as well as enjoy a panoramic view of the Mayan jungle. Afterward, we will relax in the refreshing waters of a cenote.

Upon concluding this experience, we will taste the best of local cuisine and have the chance to familiarize ourselves with some ancient Mayan traditions.

Finally, we will move on and have free time to explore the town of Valladolid.

We guarantee an unforgettable cultural and archaeological experience in a unique environment.
