Itinerary

Tulum

2 hours Admission included

For the Mayans, this city was the main center of the sea and land commerce in the area. Nowadays, it captivates everyone who visits it. It was built on a cliff from which you can see the turquoise tones of the Caribbean Sea in all its splendor.
Zona Arqueologica De Coba

2 hours Admission included

For many years Coba was an ignored piece of Mayan history due to its location, archeologists first learned about the site in the mid-1800s, but dense jungle, the Caste War, and lack of funds made this site a difficult area to penetrate. Archeologists have estimated that 6,000 structures exist, but only three settlements are for public viewing.
Stop 3
