A Mayan ruins tour from Cancun or Playa del Carmen to enjoy adventures in history and nature in the Yucatan. Explore the Chichen Itza and Ek Balam Mayan ruins with an expert guide and swim in Cenote Selva Maya and enjoy a tasty lunchbox.

This Mayan ruins tour from Cancun or Playa del Carmen invites you to discover the magic of the Yucatan and the mysteries of the ancient cities. You’ll explore the Mayan ruins of Chichen Itza and Ek Balam with a specialized guide and swim in a Yucatan cenote that will blow your mind.

Start with a Chichén Itzá Ancestral experience, a journey to one of the most iconic archaeological sites in the world and the Seventh Wonder of the Modern World. Before exploring the ruins, immerse yourself in living Maya culture at the Naayil Kú Maya Village, where authentic Maya warriors and a shaman welcome you on a sacred path through the jungle. Discover ancestral stories, receive a spiritual blessing, visit a traditional Maya handicrafts shop, and witness a live Mayan Ball Game demonstration, a ceremonial tradition rarely seen by visitors.
After this cultural immersion, continue to Chichén Itzá, where an expert guide will share fascinating facts and legends of the ancient Maya civilization as you admire its crown jewel, the Kukulkán Pyramid, a bucket-list experience you simply can’t miss.

Next, visit Ek Balam, an off-the-beaten-track Yucatec-Maya archaeological site with incredible carvings hidden in a jungle landscape. Climb the soaring Acropolis pyramid, the highest point of the ruins. With few crowds and some incredible history, an Ek Balam tour from Cancun or the Riviera Maya is a way to really connect with this cultural immersion.

Dive in the crystalline waters of the underground, semi-open Cenote Selva Maya. Soak up the natural light illuminating the waters and the sight of tree roots cascading towards the fresh water from high above. A swim in a cenote is a unique experience in the Yucatan, these natural caverns and caves are sacred entryways to the underworld and a great place to enjoy a refreshing swim.

This is the Mayan ruins tour you’ve been looking for, two magnificent cities and a swim in a cenote, the best of the Yucatan.
