My Chichen Itza Express Private Tour will save you money and tons of driving time, as you don’t have to figure out the way to the ruins. Leave it to the experts: plan your special trip with The Custom Tour!
Let us take care of the driving and we will take the fastest way to this UNESCO World Heritage Site, on board of the the comfortable A/C touring vehicle we provide for the two hour drive (four hour drive when you take a shared option with the generic tours!). We will have you back mid-afternoon for margaritas by the pool at your resort or condo.
A knowledgeable tour guide will accompany you and share a detailed explanation about the history and culture that thrived in the Yucatan Peninsula centuries ago, resulting in the great Mayan Culture.
You will enjoy time taking photos and listening to the interesting facts about the Kukulkan Temple, also known as el Castillo. This is a one of a kind Mayan structure, designed with 91 steps on each side, simulating our solar calendar. Because of this and many other facts, Chichen Itza has been recently proclaimed as one of the New 7 Wonders of the Modern World. Get closer to El Castillo and admire its amazing carved snakes and it’s symmetrical architecture.
This is another impressive ceremonial structure and the largest of its kind. Some experts believe the Mayan Ruling Class used it to settle disputes or as a recreational activity. Playing on this large court, two teams would try to score goals with a rubber ball, using their forearms and hips only.
This tour includes a traditional Mexican lunch, at one of our favorite local restaurants. You can’t miss this opportunity!
We suggest you to start this special journey early in the morning, to be among the first visitors to arrive at this famous archaeological site. You will have plenty of time to explore the ruins, then we will have a quick stop for lunch and drive you straight back to your hotel. We will suggest you the fastest routes and the most efficient logistics for a pleasant experience.
My Private Chichen Itza Express Tour will definitely become the highlight of your trip if you love outdoor activities and authentic local adventures!
