What a fun adventure this tour is! It starts in the morning as you get picked up by a very friendly guide and proceed to the first half of your day. Our tour started with the three and a half hour Mayan Encounter. We hiked through the jungle and rappelled into a cenote, or sinkhole. The sinkholes naturally occur when limestone breaks apart and reveals underground water. We ziplined through a rainforest and canoed in a beautiful lagoon. With a Mayan Shaman leading us, we took part in a special blessing and finished our morning having an authentic and delicious Mayan lunch. It tasted like home cooking because it was.
I know this sounds like a wild day so far but it is well organized and safe for children as well as adults. Our guide metaphorically and sometimes literally held our hand as we progressed through our adventures. We felt comfortable the whole time as their were many support staff around to ensure our safety. Professional photographers took our photos in various states of flying, zipping and swimming which are available for purchase. The photos were of an excellent quality and a great way to remember the day.
After lunch we continued our tour and spent two hours at the Coba archaeological site. Our guide gave us a very informative and interesting talk and tour of some of the sites including some temples and a ball game court. She was very knowledgeable and obviously very interested in the Mayan Culture. After speaking to her I wanted to learn so much more about these great people.
One highlight included climbing to the top of the Nohoch Muul pyramid which is the tallest pyramid on the Yucatan Peninsula. The views of the area were breathtaking and we didn’t want to climb down! Besides not wanting to stop looking at the views we were also nervous to start our descent. Climbing up and back down the Nohoch Muul pyramid was difficult to navigate at times but we felt worth it in the end for the views.
My family loved this tour because it covered a bit of everything. If you only take one tour while in Mexico I would choose this one because it included the natural beauty of the area as well as Mayan culture and visiting Mayan Ruins. It would be tough to see all that on another tour.
