Full description

Take a day trip from Cancún to Chichen Itza, the capital of the ancient Mayan civilization, with hotel transfers and entry included. Tour the ancient ruins of this UNESCO World Heritage Site with a guide. Visit the cenote of Ik Kil and swim in its waters. Enjoy a buffet lunch and a folk dance show.

Begin the day with a drive that stops at an underwater grotto, Cenote Ik Kil. Admire the thread-like green vines cascading into the clear blue waters. Dive into the sacred sinkhole for a swim.

Next, stop for a buffet lunch with fresh salads, soups, rice, chicken, fish, vegetables, and regional dishes. Be treated to a festive show where regional people perform traditional dances to folk music.

Continue onward to visit the archaeological site of Chichen Itza. Follow your guide to learn the secrets of the Mayans and the nearly 1000-year history of the place. Gain insight into its historical significance before wandering around the ruins on your own.

It was fun. It's the most popular activity here, so expect crowds. The vendors next to Chicken Itza were very nice, offering a lot of explanation about what they are selling. The cenote was also crowded. They wanted 50 pesos to rent a life jacket, and you couldn't swim without one. It's super beautiful though. Overall, I recommend this activity.

Good your overall. I enjoyed it. Includes Cenote and Vallodolid along with Chichen Itza. The guides know good english and are very friendly and informative. The only downside was we were taken to this shop before our lunch for about 30 minutes. They had mayan handmade gifts. They obviously have some kind of deal with them to bring tourists. I didn’t really mind it but it makes a long day even longer. I didn’t particularly enjoy the lunch provided either. It’s a buffet which is good however i noticed some flies hovering on the food they were serving which wasn’t great. I would do it again however… It was a good day out

Informative Comfy bus 4 stops in total lunch, chichen itza, cenote, viollidad The staff did not inform us of Some of the extra charges along the way which we’re required including drinks (water) with our lunch, and life jackets at the cenote. Guides were informative about Mayan culture and chichen itza. Also the fist stop was more about encouraging us to spend money than anything else. Viaollidad was not mentioned in the initial itinerary and it was great to see and get a taste of the marquesitas a dessert made by street vendors like a fruit filled Crispy sweet crepe. We were exhausted by the end of the trip and slept most of the 2 hour bus ride back to our hotel. I’d recommend bringing water maybe a snack, towel and insect repellent.
