Itinerary
1
Zona Arqueologica Uxmal
Discover the majestic Uxmal Ruins, a UNESCO World Heritage Site steeped in history and mystery. The name "Uxmal," meaning "built three times," has inspired various theories about the different civilizations that may have inhabited this extraordinary site.
Marvel at the impressive architecture of the House of the Magician and enjoy panoramic views from the Governor's Palace, one of the best vantage points in the area. For a stunning perspective of the Great Pyramid, head to the top of the Nunnery Quadrangle, where you'll be rewarded with breathtaking views.
The journey from your hotel to Uxmal takes approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, making it a convenient and enriching day trip into the heart of ancient Maya civilization.

Zona Arqueologica de Kabah
The Zona Arqueológica de Kabah is an ancient Mayan site located along the Ruta Puuc (Puuc route) a route that runs through the Puuc region of the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico.
The term Puuc refers both to this geographical area and to an architectural style characterized by intricate stone mosaics and elaborate façades.
Kabah is the second most important archaeological site in the region after Uxmal, yet it remains far less visited. Many travelers head straight to Uxmal, often skipping Kabah, which means you’ll usually find only a few visitors exploring the ruins.
The city holds historical significance, as it is mentioned in the Chilam Balam of Chumayel, an important colonial-era text documenting Maya history and mythology.

This interactive museum offers a fascinating look into the history of cacao, from its sacred role in ancient Maya culture to its transformation into the chocolate we know today.
