Enter the great Mayan city to see El Castillo, built to honor the god Kukulcán. Immerse yourself in Mayan culture on a guided tour and enjoy free time to explore the ancient buildings on your own. Afterward, head over to a pristine cenote. Admire Ik Kil, Mayan for “The Place of the Winds”, a park surrounded by exotic plants and old large trees. Gaze at a variety of birds, such as toucans, parrots, mockingbirds, cardinals, and the local 'tho' species. Take a dip in the gorgeous cenote at the center of the park to freshen up before moving on. Taste a delicious buffet meale and one refreshing drink (flavored water) in the restaurant Xaybeh, it´s located at 5 minutes from the cenote Ik Kil. Finally, arrive in the magical town of Izamal for a guided stroll. Notice how all homes and buildings are painted yellow and snap some amazing photos of this picturesque location.
