FROM
CANCUN, PLAYA DEL CARMEN AND THE RIVIERA MAYA * AREAS SOUTH OF CANCUN WILL REQUIRE AN ADDITIONAL COST.
Now you can tour two fabulous Mayan Ruins in one trip!
See the majesty of
Chichen Itza
and the newly uncovered Ek Balam as well as the Ik-Kil Cenote. This
is a private tour - just you and your group with a private driver.
Ek Balam, which means "black jaguar" in Mayan, may well
have achieved pivotal status in the public affairs of eastern Yucatan and
judging from its monumental architecture it was quite probably an influential
city. Visually most impressive is its splendid central plaza bordered by three
massive ceremonial structures.

The complex also features a number of smaller temples,

Yucatan's most remarkable Mayan buildings.

SUGGESTED
ITINERARY:
We suggest a 7am
departure (no later than 8am ) to arrive at C-Itza at 9:30 before the crowds
and heat. Stay there for 2.5 hrs then go to Ik Kil which is minutes away.
Jump into the cenote, enjoy the gardens and after sit down and enjoy the buffet.
Depart for Ek Balam around 1:30pm and arrive at 2:45pm . Guided tour takes
about 1 hr including climbing the ruins. Take a few photos and depart around
4:15pm and arrive into Cancun around 6:00pm. You can easily do this tour faster
and return around 5pm if you like.
ADDITIONAL NOTES:
Tours are made
in air-conditioned vans, not buses. Therefore, the maximum number
of people to a vehicle is 10. If you have more people in your group,
you will need two vehicles. The transportation cost is fixed - that's
why more people in a vehicle makes the price per person go down.
This tour requires
a 25% deposit at the time of booking via Credit Card or PayPal.
There is no cancellation
fee if cancelled or changed before noon the day before the tour.
