Explore Tulum, about 80 miles south of Cancun, which has become a hot destination known for its spiritual, New Age vibe, however, for the Mayans who built it, the area served as a fortress. Tulum is protected on one side by four-story cliffs and on the other by a 12-foot wall. The ruins sit along the east coast of the Yucatán Peninsula overlooking the glittering Caribbean Sea. Explore the Tulum Archaeological Site on our included tour of one of the best-preserved coastal Mayan cities.

Day 4, Puerto Morelos / Valladolid

With our ship docked in at scenic Puerto Morelos, we travel by deluxe motorcoach to spend an exclusive night at Mayaland Hotel, near Valladolid.

Enjoy an included tour of the amazing and important ruins of Ek Balam (Mayan for “black jaguar”) and an authentic Yucatán lunch at Hacienda Selva Maya. Indulge in a delectable dinner and relaxing overnight stay at the colorful Mayaland Hotel – family-owned and operated since 1923.

Day 5, Valladolid / Progresso
ChichenItza

After our overnight stay at Mayaland Hotel, awake to the rare and precious opportunity to greet the sun as it rises over the mystical ruins of Chichén Itzá and the fascinating El Castillo – the Temple of Kukulkan. Complete this stop with an included tour of Valladolid. Then on to board the ship waiting at the port town of Progresso.

Day 6, Campeche

The colors of the rainbow adorn this fortified city on the Yucatán Peninsula’s western edge, in the restored façades of the historic buildings lining its cobblestone streets.

Cherish the chance to explore this charming state capital not visited by larger ships.
