Coba
Walk along vegetation-covered paths until you reach the ruins of Cobá, one of the most important Maya settlements of the ancient world. Accompanied by an expert guide, discover its network of stone roads (sacbés), jungle-covered temples, and the secrets of a city that still lives hidden within the forest.

Cenote
End your day by immersing yourself in the crystalline waters of Aktun Bej, a majestic and little-explored cavern cenote. Swim, breathe, listen to the echo of the earth… and feel the jungle wrap around you completely.
