Discover Oxkintok, a remarkable Maya archaeological site known for its pyramids, palaces, and a unique labyrinth structure believed to have ritual significance. Once connected to Chichén Itzá, Oxkintok played a key role in regional trade and politics, offering insights into Maya urban planning, religion, and astronomy. Then, visit the beautiful Hacienda Mucuyché, where history meets comfort. Explore original 19th-century structures alongside modern amenities. A highlight of your visit is swimming through two stunning cenotes—Carlota, semi-open to the sky, and Azul Maya, a cavern cenote—connected by a breathtaking canal. Enjoy snorkelling, swimming, and the harmony of nature and heritage.

Activity itinerary

Oxkintok Ruins
  • 2h
  • Admission ticket included
Archaeological Site This archaeological site will amaze you with its Mayan labyrinth, a building known as "tza tun tzat" (a place where it is easy to get lost), which was used for initiation rituals, as tests for those aspiring to become priests, healers, or other professions. This labyrinth has three levels that represent the cosmic levels of the Mayan world: celestial, terrestrial, and underworld. During your visit, from the top of the pyramids, you can admire wonderful natural landscapes, hills that are actually unexcavated structures, as well as enjoy sculptures, chultunes (underground huts for storing water), arches, entrances, esplanades, cobblestone paths or sacbés, and fantastic ornamental structures.
Cenotes Hacienda Mucuyche
  • 4h
  • Admission ticket included
Visit Hacienda Mucuyché and Dive into Its Cenotes – Where History and Nature Blend Perfectly Spend two hours exploring this stunning hacienda and swimming in its two breathtaking cenotes: Carlota and Azul Maya. To move from one cenote to the other, you’ll cross a scenic canal—either by enjoying a refreshing swim or walking along a picturesque stone path. The entrance fee to the hacienda and cenotes is already included. Afterwards, you'll have 1 hour and 30 minutes to enjoy lunch at the on-site restaurant, which also features a swimming pool where you can take a relaxing dip. (Please note: lunch is not included.)
