Recently named one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, Chichén Itzá is without doubt one of the most important and spectacular archaeological sites in the Yucatán and the rest of Mesoamerica. The excellent restoration and reconstruction of this ancient city make Chichén Itzá a must-see for travellers interested in discovering the splendour of Mexico's pre-Hispanic past.
After visiting the Chichén Itzá site, we will cool off in a cenote of singular beauty. Yokdzonot is the name of the community that, through a cooperative, seeks to make responsible use of the beauty of its cenote. In Yokdzonot, we will try “Yucatecan snacks”, delicious local appetisers that will give us a mid-day energy boost until we arrive at a prestigious restaurant on the main square of Valladolid.
Valladolid is a town where past and present blend perfectly, offering spectacular views of its magnificent, colourful colonial architecture, its charming population, and where we can enjoy its highly flavourful cuisine. A walk through the town's main districts will reveal the colonial history of the region. After this visit, you can truly say you have seen Mexico.
