Xcaret and Xichén Clásico Tour

A complete 2-day tour to the best of Mexico by visiting Xcaret and Chichén Itzá

Join a marvelous journey through the culture and nature of Mexico. Along two days you will visit the two main attractions at Cancun and Riviera Maya: Xcaret and Chichén Itzá, Mexico.

On the Xichén Clásico Tour, a certified guide will take you to the main pre-Hispanic temples and buildings at Chichén Itzá, Mexico. This archaeological site is a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, and there you will see places such as the Temple of the Warriors and the Thousand Columns, the Osario, and the magnificent Ballgame Court. Get into Chichén Itzá and its history.

Remember to take a picture at the foot of the Pyramid of Kukulcan, where twice a year during the equinox, the Feathered Snake descends. Also, there will be a stop at the Xcajum Cenote to swim in its refreshing waters.

On this tour, you can visit the more than 50 attractions at Xcaret Park in one whole day. Swim along the three underground rivers, visit the astonishing Aviary, the huge Butterfly Pavilion, or the Coral Reef Aquarium. Xcaret also has an extensive cultural offer with presentations such as the Papantla Flyers and the Horse Exhibition, among others. To end an unforgettable day, attend Xcaret México Espectacular with more than 300 artists onstage that will take you through 500 of Mexican history.
