Explore the ancient world of the Maya with a guided tour of Chichén Itzá, one of Mexico’s most iconic archaeological sites. Discover the Pyramid of Kukulkan, the Temple of the Warriors, and the Great Ball Court as your guide shares fascinating stories behind these incredible ruins. After the guided portion, enjoy some free time to explore the site on your own.
