Excellent activity, I really liked that it is not necessary to leave the city to the intense traffic to be able to have a day full of history, culture, fun, landscapes and return to the hotel on time for lunch. We started the day with an intense story about the Mayan culture, we visited 2 places that are a hidden gem in the Cancun area, we tasted a delicious snack and we ended with free time on one of the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen. 10/10

Nice excursion. The visit to the two archaeological excavations was beautiful. You don't have to go all the way to Tulúm to see the Mayan influences.
