Itinerary

1. Ek Balam
Ek´Balam (Jaguar Star) is a Mayan city that had its maximum development during the Late Classic / Terminal (600-850 / 900 AD) and possibly hosted the "Tlalol" kingdom. The first known king of Ek´Balam is Ukit Kan Le´t Tok (the father of the four flint fronts) who was the builder of most of the sumptuous palace that we now know as Acropolis and many other works. Likewise, he was the promoter of technical and cultural advances, as well as of architectural and decorative wealth, whose best example is Structure 35 Sub, located inside the Acropolis and known as Sak Xok Nahh (white house of reading ), which served as a grave for Ukit Kan Le´t Tok, who was buried with a rich offering made up of more than 7,000 pieces such as ceramic vessels, shell objects, snail and tumbaga.
Duration: 120 mins

Cenote Oxman is a charming semi-open cenote, famous for its relaxed atmosphere and turquoise waters that invite visitors to enjoy a day of rest and fun. This cenote is ideal for those seeking a more intimate and less crowded experience, away from the tourist bustle of other more popular destinations. Its natural beauty and serene surroundings make it a perfect haven for swimming, taking photographs, and enjoying nature at its finest.
