Chichen Itza

Chichen Itza is the capital of the ancient Maya empire, and fun to say out loud. Its majestic buildings date back to 435 and 455 BC, and it’s geographically located in the middle of the beautiful Yucatan Peninsula. At this site, declared as one of the 7 Wonders of the World, you can visit the magnificent temples such as the Kukulkan Pyramid and the Pok ta Pok ball game court. The Pyramid of Kukulkan is the most impressive temple in Chichen Itza. It’s renowned for the number of tombs beneath its endless 91 steps. Okay, so the steps do end.

Unwind as you sail across the Caribbean, basking in the tropical sun and ambiance of luxury sailing at its finest.

ATV/Zip Lines

Tear it up off the beaten trail with a guided ATV tour through some of Mexico’s most picturesque backcountry. Take a 30-minute drive through the enchanting jungle to a freshwater sinkhole (also known as a “cenote”), where you can zip line and go for a dip (also known as a “swim”) in the water. From here you’ll cruise on out for another 45 minutes to a second zip line circuit! We’ll bring this unforgettable day to a close with a late lunch buffet consisting of fantastic local cuisine, including grilled chicken, rice, beans, a salad bar, corn chips and hot sauces.
