Ek Balam Mayan City, Cenote Oxman Swim and Valladolid

Step into the heart of Yucatán on a full day tour that blends Mayan history, sacred nature and colonial charm. Travel from your hotel to Ek Balam, where a certified bilingual guide leads you through towering temples, detailed stucco façades and the acropolis that once guarded the tomb of ruler Ukit Kan Lek Tok’. Continue to a Mayan cultural stop to see a stone carving workshop, taste handmade corn tortillas, sample Xtabentún liqueur and, when available, receive a short blessing from a local shaman, before enjoying a regional buffet lunch (drinks not included). Then refresh with a swim in cenote Oxman, a stunning vertical cenote with clear, cool water and life jackets included. Finish the day in Valladolid, a picturesque colonial city where you’ll visit the main square and San Servacio Cathedral and have free time for photos, sweets or ice cream before returning to your hotel.
