Embark on an unforgettable journey through Yucatán, from the vibrant Izamal to the tranquil coast of Sisal. Explore magical towns, delight in Yucatecan cuisine, immerse yourself in Mayan history, and enjoy outdoor activities. Each destination will surprise you with its unique charm!
Monday
We will start with a visit to Tekax, known as the “Sultana of the Sierra.” Spend the morning exploring the Alley of Murals and make a stop at Caricoa, an artisanal chocolate producer. In the afternoon, we will arrive in Maní, a place famous for its poc chuc, though it stands out for many other reasons as well.
Tuesday
Take advantage of your visit to Maní, as there will still be several special activities related to Janal Pixan in November. Learn to make traditional sweets by reserving at 999 442 8899, and prepare your own pib at the Lol Beh restaurant. Check out all the events you can be part of.
Wednesday
Need a touch of color in your life? Izamal is the perfect place for that and much more. The contemporary side of the City of Three Cultures is something you can’t miss. And if you get hungry, Izamal has several delicious options like El Rinconcito del Vate, Restaurante Zamná, and Kanché, which promise to delight you.
Thursday
On the way to Motul, why not make a stop in Cacalchén? This little town is home to the curious Ayun Nah cenote, and it’s a clear example of not judging a book by its cover. You can’t miss it, the entrance costs only $25 pesos! Then, head straight to the 20 de Noviembre market in Motul to enjoy some delicious huevos motuleños.
Friday
Discover the history of Motul in a different way with a bicycle tour from FB: Bicitul. For only $450 pesos, you can visit the most emblematic points of this Magical Town, take a dip in the Sambulá cenote, visit the Felipe Carrillo Puerto house museum, and much more.
Saturday
This Friday we will return to the capital just in time to enjoy one of the most anticipated events for Yucatecans this month, the Xmatkuil Fair. Celebrating 50 years of fun, this fair has provided countless moments of joy with its mechanical rides, delicious snacks, and cute souvenir keychains. And if rides aren’t your thing, don’t worry: Xmatkuil is also famous for its vibrant music scene. There’s something for everyone!
Sunday
The last stop will be Sisal, the only Magical Town in Yucatán located on the coast, famous for celebrating one of the most memorable traditional festivals: the festival in honor of the Black Christ. Learn more about its history and how this celebration is carried out.
