About the experience.
Grupo Xcaret runs this tour on a panoramic bus with an onboard restroom, from Cancún and the Riviera Maya, with a light breakfast of baguette, juice, muffin and coffee on the way. At Chichén Itzá a certified bilingual guide leads you through the main buildings for about an hour and a quarter, with a radio headset so you hear every word, then you have about an hour of free time.
The Pyramid of Kukulcán is a great stone calendar, famous for the feathered serpent of light that descends its steps at the equinox. From the ruins the tour continues to Valladolid, a Pueblo Mágico, to see the Zací cenote, then to La Casona de Valladolid, a restored estate, for a buffet of Yucatecan specialties.

Chichén Itzá Express Tour
The most famous city of the ancient Maya, walked with a bilingual guide who knows its stories. Entrance, lunch and the air-conditioned drive are taken care of.

Ek Balam Express Tour
Ek Balam sits deep in the Yucatán jungle and is one of the best-preserved Mayan cities yet uncovered. Its acropolis is the tomb of a king, and the view from the top is the reason to go.

Xenotes Tour
A guided day through the four types of cenote the Yucatán is known for: rappel into a cavern, zip-line over open water, kayak and swim, then picnic in the jungle.
