Zona Arqueologica de Chichen Itza
Enjoy the amazing view of the archeological site of Chichén Itza from the inside in the tranquility of your early-morning visit. Learn how this large pre-Colombian city played an important role in Mayan civilization from around A.D. 600 to 1200, and remained a center of worship and pilgrimage until the arrival of the Spanish. Even today, it is still considered a sacred site by the Yucatán peninsula’s Maya population. Furthermore, it became protected by UNESCO and is nowadays considered one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. Follow your private guide and learn the history behind this ancient site, such as the meaning of the stone carvings, pyramids, platforms, ball courts and staircases. Visit the Temple of the Warriors, The Ball Game and, of course, the famous El Castillo, also known as the Temple of Kukulkan.
2 Hours 20 Minutes • Admission Ticket Included

Even more, take the opportunity to participate in a tequila tasting in this magical environment!
