Also, you will know why Mayas considered LGBTQI+ people closer to the gods! Then, Ricardo will take you to a fantastic cenote to cool off and you will discover why Xibalba was considered the gate to the underworld by the Mayas.
Jump in to the fun while exploring the ancient maya civilization and natural beauty of the surrounding area. Learn about the origin, glory and ending of a culture that mastered astronomy, architecture, arts among other disciplines.
Coming to México Yucatán and dont visit Chichen Itza, its like going to Egypt and skip Giza pyramid, so important is Chichen Itza, the most iconic mayan archeological site (something difficult to say having another impressive mayan sites like Uxmal, Palenque, Tikal).
Understanding Chichén Itzá is understanding how advance the mayan culture was. Chichén Itzá was built having the stars alignment in mind, that helped them to define the season to cultivate their land. Their buildings work as giant sundials, with special events happening in the equinox (spoiler alert: The edge of the pyramid cast a shadow with the shape of a the giant snake God).
Our MGT guides and site archaeological experts will lead you through the history in a relaxed and fun tour.

- Chichen Itza (from Yucatec Maya: Chiꞌ Chꞌeꞌen Its Jaꞌ 'Mouth of the well of the water sorcerers') was a major focal point in the Northern Maya Lowlands from the Late Classic (c. AD 600–900) through the Terminal Classic (c. AD 800–900) and into the early portion of the Postclassic period (c. AD 900–1200).
- The site exhibits a multitude of architectural styles, reminiscent of styles seen in central Mexico and of the Puuc and Chenes styles of the Northern Maya lowlands.
- Chichen Itza, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is the second-most visited of Mexico's archeological sites.[74] The archeological site draws many visitors from the popular tourist resort of Cancún, who make a day trip on tour buses.
