Itinerary
Ek Balam is a Mayan archaeological site in Yucatan, Mexico. It is located 30 km north of the city of Valladolid, 2 km from the current Mayan town of Ek Balam. Judging by the size and quality of its constructions.
Cenote Oxman is a charming semi-open cenote, famous for its relaxed atmosphere and turquoise waters that invite visitors to enjoy a day of rest and fun. This cenote is ideal for those seeking a more intimate and less crowded experience, away from the tourist bustle of other more popular destinations. Its natural beauty and serene surroundings make it a perfect haven for swimming, taking photographs, and enjoying nature at its finest. Oxman is a place where visitors can connect with their environment, surrounded by lush vegetation and a peaceful atmosphere.
Valladolid is one of Mexico's "Pueblos Mágicos" (Magical Towns) and also one of the most charming and beautiful cities on the Yucatán Peninsula. Filled with pastel-colored colonial houses, a spectacular main square, several museums to visit, and even cenotes within the city center itself, it's a place well worth exploring.

The tour guide entertaining and informative. Ek-Balam and the cenotes were well worth it (even in a torrential downpour). The lunch was great, especially the tortillas! Only a couple slightly negatives; even though it states towel are provided, when we asked for towel they said they didn’t have any, and souvenirs were very expensive.

Cenote was great, Mayan site was great. Driver was amazing. The drive was outrageously too long. We were the first pickup, we should have been the first dropoff. We were in fact the last.
