Dit kun je verwachten

Diep verborgen in de jungle van Yucatan ligt de oude Mayastad Cobá. Op deze culturele trip bezoek je de ruïnes en ontdek je het raadselachtige Maya erfgoed. Ook zie je een grote piramide, ontmoet je lokale dorpsbewoners en zwem je in een heilige cenote. Valentina, een van onze deskundige lokale gidsen, vertelt: "Cobá was ooit een enorme stad, waar op het hoogtepunt ongeveer 50.000 mensen woonden. Coba betekent "woelige wateren" omdat de stad bij twee lagunes met veel wind lag. Het is minder bekend dan Chichen Itza, dus het is er meestal rustiger en intiemer.”

We komen vroeg aan in Cobá zodat je de site in de koelere uren meteen goed verkent en de drukte ontloopt. Cobá is een van de recentere opgravingen op het schiereiland Yucatan en was ooit een van de belangrijkste steden van de Maya's. De highlights die je niet mag missen, zijn de meer dan 40 meter hoge Grote Piramide en de Maya-steles - pilaren of tabletten met een reliëf - die de machtige vrouwelijke leiders van het oude Cobá voorstellen. Valentina: "De hoofdpiramide van Cobá is de grootste in de regio. Het is het middelpunt van de oude verharde "witte wegen" die dwars door de site lopen. Er zijn meer dan 50 van deze wegen in en rond Cobá en ze werden in het verleden gebruikt voor handel en communicatie.”

Dan bezoek je een Maya-gemeenschap, waar de dorpelingen nog steeds zonder stromend water of elektriciteit leven. Je ontmoet een paar lokale bewoners en komt meer te weten over hun manier van leven en hun tradities. Ook woon je een Maya-ceremonie bij voordat je in een nabijgelegen restaurant smult van een traditionele lunch. En je sluit deze bijzondere dag af met een verfrissende duik in een cenote in de buurt.

A duo of Mexican delights await on this full day tour from Cancun. The adventure begins at the break of dawn with a journey to experience the wonder of Chichen Itza, a UNESCO-listed ancient Maya city. Then, wind down with a swim in a natural underground cenote cave. Hugo, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The early start is worth it – we'll arrive first thing in the morning to experience the magic of the ruins in the soft sunlight and beat the heat'.A guided tour of the ruined city reveals the stories of this remarkable site. It's not hard to imagine the daily lives of the community that lived here and built these impressive monuments. After the guided tour, enjoy free time to make the most of exploring this archaeological treasure trove as you wish. Hugo adds, ‘This ancient city isn't just about admiring the grandeur of El Castillo, but also about feeling the pulse of the Maya civilization that thrived here centuries ago. Don't miss the Great Ball Court—imagine the echoes of the past as players competed in this very spot.'Next, you'll be whisked away to Cenote Tsukán. Cenotes are believed by the Maya to be portals to the underworld, and they are revered in traditional culture. Here, you will plunge into the limpid waters, participate in a traditional ceremony and feel your senses awaken in glorious natural surroundings. Afterwards, you'll enjoy a tasty local lunch, savouring the flavours of regional cuisine prepared with fresh, local ingredients.

Private Holbox Island boat and buggy tour in Mexico

Holbox Island is a holiday within a holiday. On this private tour, you'll visit Isla Pasion on a boat trip, enjoy lunch at a five-star eco resort and enjoy a golf buggy tour of the island. Ariel, one of our local guides on this tour, says, ‘Holbox is a habitat for more than 300 endemic and migratory bird species. It's also something of a playground, with activities such as speedboats and beach buggies.'Board your boat at Chiquila – piloted by a local fisherman – and be whisked off on a two-hour coastal tour. Every other company uses the local ferry. Your guide will point out places known for their wildlife – some 150 bird species have been spotted on the island – and explain what efforts are being made to preserve this habitat. For three decades, Holbox has been part of Yum Balam Nature Reserve. And if you're doing the tour between June and September, you may be lucky enough to catch sight of the island's flamboyant flamingos.Plus, you'll discover the beauty of the secluded beaches of tiny Isla Pasion – Holbox itself boasts 36km of white-sand strands – before heading to the eco-resort for lunch followed by downtime on the sunloungers. Once your batteries are recharged, you'll hop into a golf buggy -the island's 1,000 residents don't use cars – for some fun exploring the surrounding area. To round off your visit to the island, we'll make our way to Holbox's main square for some free time – it's a great opportunity to pick up some souvenirs or sample local food.
