Casa de los Venados

Reviewed By lgmountford - Calgary, Canada

Instead of group tours, they are conducting private tours with your own group of cohorts. What a fascinating and fabulous place to visit and to make a donation to a very worthy cause. The owners have opened their private home and private collection of Mexican art to anybody who wants to visit and only ask for a modest donation that goes towards local charities. It is impossible to absorb everything and only one visit as there is so much of interest to look at. A big shout out to the owners for their vision and generosity.

Cenote Xux Ha

Reviewed By finesilver - Denver, United States

My tour guide took me there. I loved it. Clean, no-one really there, easy access from the road and a short hike to the entry, easy steps all the way down, a small intimate cenote, run by a local Mayan family. Quite picturesque also and a small opening above of course. Well worth seeking out and then checking out.

Xkopek Parque Apicola

Xkopek, a natural area, is located just 10 blocks south of the historic center of Valladolid, offers experiences, products and services that arouse the visitors interest in the fascinating world of bees. The Mysticism of a natural Rejoyada immerses visitors in the culture and tradition of the people of the Mayab. Store honey, Mayan cuisine, apiculture tour, museum, farm, camping area... Daily Bee tour at 10 am.

After a morning at Chichen Itza, I took this one-hour tour in the afternoon. Gerardo was a fantastic English-speaking guide. He talked about the plants and trees, the birds, the dry cenote and its bees, the roles these all played in traditional Mayan culture... We saw bees in the dry cenote and in the more usual boxes. Then we finished with a honey tasting and learning about the various medicinal things created by the bees. The medicines and honeys are all sold there too. Don't forget lots of bug spray, as the mosquitoes are voracious in the cenote. A phenomenal education!!

Zazil Tunich

AN EXPERIENCE IN THE MAYAN UNDERWORLD Over millions of years, nature has sculpted works of art in Zazil Tunich Cave that the world can marvel at today. Twenty meters underground, a passage leads for 200 meters into the depths of the cave. Along 80 meters of the path, you’ll see stunning stalactites and stalagmites then you’ll enter XIBALBA where there is a sacred cenote with shallow, crystal-clear waters. Before you reach the pool, you’ll pass through the Crossing of the BESO MAYA (Mayan Kiss) formed by the capricious tilt of a giant stalagmite and the CUEVA DEL ALUX (Guardian of the Caves), next to the platform of the LORDS OF XIBALBA, the Mayan Underworld. You are embarking on a journey, an unforgettable experience in the Maya Underworld that is full of tranquility, mysticism and awe at nature’s creation. Caves and cenotes were holy places in Mayan mythology and considered gateways to the home of the gods.

Our trip to Zazil Tunich was worth every penny! The tour itself provided the most historical and spiritual context I’ve encountered thus far. The cenote itself was large, with many unique formations and plenty of room to swim. Even the grounds outside of the cenote were impeccably maintained. However, the highlight was truly the staff. I was having trouble with booking online, but was able to connect with the staff through WhatsApp and they had our tour scheduled within minutes. I could’ve asked for a better all around experience, and would recommend Zazil Tunich to anyone traveling the area!

Es una experiencia para toda la familia, amigos y parejas que quieran disfrutar de momentos increíbles conectados con la naturaleza y las raíces del mundo maya.

Reviewed By XXplorador

I’ve experienced my deepest dive yet into the amazing culture, history, language and traditions of the Mayan people. All thanks to a visit to this brand-new place just a short bike-ride north of Valladolid. I was the only guest during my visit, as they are currently only offering private individualized tours to keep everyone safer during the pandemic. I was greeted and led through my visit by a wonderful young woman, as we stopped at various “stations” presenting different aspects of Mayan culture. I learned a few words of (and how to count in) Mayan; listened to Mayan spoken at length by friendly guides; witnessed spellbinding traditional dances; saw demonstrations of the ancient Mayan practices of hammock-weaving, tortilla-making, honey and chocolate production, and — most surprising of all — the creation of an ancient form of chewing gum from the bark of native trees. This was followed by a blissful swim in one of the most beautiful cenotes I’ve yet seen, located on-site. The more I learn about the Mayans, the more I want to learn about them.
