Guided Tour to Uxmal, Cenote and Kabah

This guided day trip from Mérida, listed at about seven hours, follows the Puuc Route to two Maya sites, Uxmal and Kabah, and adds a swim at a cenote. The operator presents it as more than an archaeological visit: a way of connecting the past with the present amid the landscapes of the Yucatán Peninsula.

The day begins in Uxmal, a city declared a World Heritage Site and described as one of the most important cities of the Maya world. About two hours are set aside for it. The source notes that INAH and CULTUR taxes are not included, totaling 700 MXN per adult and 100 MXN per child, to be paid in exact cash to the guide when boarding or at the ticket office.

From there the itinerary continues to Kabah, whose history is described as intriguing, still framed by the countryside of the peninsula. This part of the tour is listed at about an hour and gives context to the wider Puuc region beyond Uxmal.

The last stop is the Sambula Cenote, a place the source presents as sacred and full of cultural significance. You can take a swim in its clear water before a regional lunch that completes the day. The stop is listed at about an hour.

The tour suits people interested in archaeology who also want time to cool off. It is suitable for all physical fitness levels, though it is not recommended for travelers with poor cardiovascular health. Infants must sit on an adult's lap, and infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller.

The price includes air conditioning in the vehicle. Admissions, fees and taxes are excluded, and the source mentions 40 USD for adults, with a preferential rate for Mexican nationals with INE. This figure differs from the 700 MXN quoted in the itinerary for site taxes, so confirm the final amount at booking. The source lists no meeting point, and it does not say whether lunch is included in the price, so ask the operator.
