The day starts with a visit to an Hacienda, which is in very good conditions and is a good way to understand more about the history of the Yucatán colonial past. Afterwards we went to Uxmal, which is an amazing archeological site - a must go if in Yucatan / Mérida. Our guide was very knowledgeable and eager to explain every detail of the temples and the Mayan civilization. Then we had a nice traditional food (vegan and vegetarian options included), and finally we drove to the Cenote site which was not as lovely as other ones we saw in the area.

Le site d’Uxmal est magnifique, les autres arrêts (hacuenda et cenotes) pertinents et instructifs. Le dîner était simple mais de bonne qualité (cuisine maison). Excellent guide Pedro à l’écoute et empathique et bon chauffeur Camilio. Meeci à vous deux.

Es war ein toller Tag mit vielen Eindrücken. Der Tourguide selbst war Maya und konnte uns viel zur Kultur, zur Geschichte und auch zur Sprachr erklären. Uxmal ist wunderschön und sollte definitiv mit ganz oben auf der Liste für die Mexiko Reise stehen.
