Chichén Itzá, Izamal, & Cenote Xcajum: Roundtrip Transfer from Mérida + Lunch

Maximize your visit and beat the crowds to Chichén Itzá with tickets for an early guided tour of the ancient Maya site, complete with roundtrip transport from Mérida. Tour one of the Seven Wonders of the World with an expert guide when you arrive at Chichén Itzá. This enigmatic city and ceremonial center was the heartbeat of Maya society. Marvel at the ancient architecture of El Castillo and see the ancient field where the Maya would gather to watch and play _pitz_ – a pre-Hispanic ball game. Next, head to a sacred cenote to cool off from your day of sightseeing. Swim in the warm freshwater pools, just as the Maya did centuries ago. Included in the tour is a visit to Izamal, where you can explore its colorful streets and historic sites. Discover the unique blend of Mayan and colonial heritage that makes this "Yellow City" so special. Conclude your guided tour with a spread of local Mexican dishes at a buffet lunch before boarding the bus back to Mérida.
