Las Coloradas and Ek Balam Trip

We'll pick you up from your hotel in Valladolid between 7 and 7:30 am before heading to the picturesque municipality of Río Lagartos where we'll enjoy a 2-hour boat ride on the idyllic Lagartos River.

First, we'll explore this protected environmental reserve on the boat, observing the magnificent flamingos, herons, and pelicans that inhabit it. In the end, you can take a traditional Mayan mud bath - a real treat for the skin! After that, we'll enjoy a typical lunch of a choice of several regional dishes.

At 12:30 pm, feeling reenergized, we'll continue the tour by heading to the enchanting archaeological site Ek Balam. In this Mayan village, we'll encounter walls, pyramids, arches, and a pre-Columbian ball game. After the visit, you'll have free time to continue exploring the vestiges of this great civilization at your own pace.

Finally, we'll return to Valladolid, arriving back at your hotel at around 5:30 pm.
