Mayapan Tours

Largely regarded as the last great Mayan capital of the Yucatan peninsula and inhabited until the Late Post-Classic period, the ancient city of Mayapan has long fascinated archaeologists, as well as becoming a popular tourist attraction. The city was allegedly founded by Toltec King Kukulcan after the fall of Chichen Itza and today its remains include more than 4,000 structures, spread over a 4.2-square-kilometer plot and surrounded by an imposing stone perimeter wall.
The star attraction of Mayapan is the towering Temple of Kukulcan, a terraced pyramid similar to the one found at Chichen Itza, around which are dozens of temples, altars, shrines and residences, many adorned with colorful murals and well-preserved stuccos.
Practical Info
The Mayapan Mayan Ruins are located on the Yucatán Peninsula, approximately 40 km south of Merida.

Private tour at Mayapan & Mucuyché
In this tour you will have the opportunity to visit the famous archeological site of Mayapan, well known as “Flag of the Mayan Civilization”. This city was built similar as Chichén Itzá and it has a unique architectural style.
Continue your tour at the former Hacienda located in Mucuyché ("tree of the turtledove") and surprise yourself with the splendor of its partially restored buildings, but the most impressive are the cenotes that it houses: Cenote Carlota, with a canal surrounded by vegetation; and Cenote Azul, a cavern type with stalactites still forming, two wonders that you can visit in Yucatan.
Do not miss the opportunity to visit these wonderful natural beauties that we have for you.

Yucatan Trinity - Cenotes, Ruins, & Private Hacienda Lounge Experience!
Most travelers want to see the same cenotes, as they should, they are the nicest. Where we differentiate is on how we use those same cenotes and combine with our very own anchor product in Hacienda Cuch Balam (We live here). The same goes for the ruins, most people take tours to visit these ruins, but then what? We cap off a day full of ruins and cenotes to bring you to a rustic hacienda that is off-grid (26 panels), a private cenote that also serves as the water source for the home and pools. The hacienda is located 3km into the Mayan Jungle and surrounded by the beautiful sounds of nature (or we can turn up the music if you like!) We include a Mayan cleansing ceremony when available. This is the perfect way to wind down having food and drinks and just chilling at the Hacienda.
