Beschreibung

Auf dieser Tour abseits der ausgetretenen Pfade erhalten Sie einen Einblick in die Geschichte und die Traditionen der Maya. Sie besuchen die alte Maya-Stadt Ek' Balam - die jüngste für die Öffentlichkeit zugängliche Stadt - sowie Yalcoba, um in der Cenote zu schwimmen, und machen einen Halt in Valladolid. Francesca, eine unserer ortskundigen Tourguides, sagt: „Die Archäologen begannen erst 1985 mit der Freilegung von Ek' Balam, und sie graben auch heute noch weiter. Die Ausgrabungsstätte ist vollständiger als viele andere, und man kann sich immer noch das tägliche Leben in der Maya-Stadt vorstellen, während man sie erkundet. Aber der Hauptgrund, warum ich Ek' Balam so mag, ist, dass es so wenige Besucher gibt."

Sie beginnen Ihr Abenteuer mit einer geführten Besichtigung von Ek' Balam, was übersetzt 'Schwarzer Jaguar' bedeutet. Die Stätte verfügt über mehr als 40 Bauwerke, deren Mauern ein Labyrinth bilden, während die Hauptpyramide, die sogenannte Akropolis, einen gut erhaltenen Eingang hat, der von den offenen Kiefern und Reißzähnen eines Jaguars umgeben ist. Sie ist sogar größer als El Castillo in Chichen Itzá. Das Beste von allem ist, dass Sie auf die Spitze klettern können - was nur wenige Maya-Stätten erlauben.

Anschließend geht es nach Yalcoba, wo Sie sich in der Schokoladenherstellung versuchen und in einem Workshop lernen können, wie man Obsidian herstellt. Nach einer Tequila- und Mezcal-Verkostung haben Sie Zeit, die kristallklare Cenote zu genießen, bevor Sie bei einem schmackhaften Mittagsbuffet mit typischen regionalen Gerichten entspannen. Zum Abschluss machen Sie einen kurzen Halt im Zentrum von Valladolid, einer Stadt, die für ihre Kunst und Architektur bekannt ist und die mit ihren farbenfrohen Kolonialgebäuden und historischen Kirchen ein wahres Bilderbuch ist.

Guided Tour of Ek' Balam and Valladolid with Cenote and Lunch

Get a close-up look at Maya history and traditions on this off-the-beaten-track tour. You'll visit the ancient Maya city of Ek' Balam – the most recent to be opened to the public – as well as Yalcoba to swim in the cenote and a stop in Valladolid. Francesca, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Archaeologists only began uncovering Ek' Balam in 1985, and they're still digging away today. It's a more complete site than many others, and you can still imagine daily life in the Maya town going on around you as you explore. But the main reason I enjoy Ek' Balam is that there are so few visitors.'We'll start the adventure with a guided visit of Ek' Balam, which translates as ‘Black Jaguar.' The site has more than 40 structures and its walls formed a maze, while the main pyramid, known as the Acropolis, has a well-preserved entrance surrounded by the open jaws and fangs of a jaguar. It's bigger than even El Castillo at Chichen Itzá. Best of all, you can climb to the top – which few Maya sites allow.Afterwards, we'll head to Yalcoba where you can try your hand at chocolate-making and learn how to craft obsidian at a workshop. After a tequila and mezcal tasting you'll have time to enjoy the crystalline cenote, then tuck into a tasty buffet lunch of typical regional dishes. Lastly, we'll have a quick stop in central Valladolid, a city known for its art and architecture and a picture-perfect medley of colourful colonial buildings and historic churches.

Maria, one of our local guides, says, ‘Known as the ‘Black Jaguar' or ‘Star Jaguar', it's not every day you get to see such massive structures and what makes Ek Balam unique are its unique double walls that encircle the central area'.
