Description
Discover the millenary grandeur of the Mayan civilization on a tour through the Chacchoben Ruins, an ancient sacred city whose origins date back to 300 BC. From Costa Maya, travel in a comfortable air-conditioned van for 70 minutes through the tropical jungle.
Upon arrival, a certified guide will take you through temples, platforms and plazas hidden among the vegetation, revealing the secrets of a city that was abandoned for centuries and rediscovered in 1972. You’ll see the Great Plaza, Temple 24, the Temple of the Vessels, and structures astronomically aligned with the solstices. All of this framed by rich biodiversity of sapodilla trees, mahogany and tropical birds.
