Visit Ek Balam, an archaeological site unknown to the tourist, but one of the most interesting excursions from Riviera Maya.

Description of the experience

We will explore the archaeological site of Ek Balam, where one of the largest constructions in Mesoamerica is located. During our visit, we will have the opportunity to climb to the top of the acropolis and marvel at its exceptional, carefully preserved decoration, as well as enjoy a panoramic view of the lush Mayan jungle. Later, we will immerse ourselves in the refreshing waters of a cenote.

Upon concluding this experience, we will sample the highlights of local cuisine and immerse ourselves in some of the ancient Mayan traditions.

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

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