Yucatán's Wonders: Salt Lakes, Ruins & Reefs

Begin in Valladolid, where colonial charm meets the warmth of the Caribbean. Pedal through the surreal pink salt flats of Las Coloradas and cruise Río Lagartos to spot flamingos and crocodiles. Dive into the heritage of Chichén Itzá, then connect with local families in Yaxunah to learn about Maya life, cook traditional meals, and swim in a jungle cenote.

Continue to Sian Ka’an Biosphere Reserve for a boat safari through mangroves, and snorkel the vibrant coral reefs of Puerto Morelos. These days, balance iconic sites with local flavor, wildlife, and coastal bliss.

Southern Jungles & Ancient Cities

Fly to Chiapas and explore Palenque’s mist-covered temples. Hike to Misol-Há waterfall and glide along the Lakanja River with Lacandon guides into untouched jungle. Visit the turquoise pools of Agua Azul and stroll the highland streets of San Cristóbal de las Casas.

Marvel at the stalactites in Grutas El Mamut, cross rope bridges in Arcotete Park, and witness sacred rituals in San Juan Chamula and Zinacantán. This region’s depth and spirituality offer a soul-stirring encounter with living Maya culture.
