Things To Do
Merida Historic Center
HIghly suggested to visit the Cathedral and the main building of the Autonomous University of Yucatan (UADY). Also, take some time to visit Santa Lucia Park.
Paseo de Montejo
An iconic place in Merida. Take some time to have a 'champola' (ice-cream) at Helados El Colon.
Progreso
A perfect place to have great seafood! Our favorites restaurants are Eladios and Flamingos, both located at Malecon de Progreso.
Izamal
Known as the yellow city, Izamal is an iconic town in Yucatan. Don't miss the opportunity to visit the Franciscan convent and have some authentic yucatecan food at El Kinich.
Cenotes
Cenotes are one of the most known natural attractions in Yucatan. These are deep natural wells or sinkholes, formed by the collapse of surface limestone that exposes ground water underneath. We recommend visiting the ones located in Cuzama, Peba and/or Ikkil.
Chichén Itzá
The most known Mayan archaeological site. The most convenient way to go is by car.
Uxmal Ruins
Although less known than Chichen Itza, Uxmal is considered one of the most important archaeological sites of Maya culture.
Places to eat
Yucatan is recognized because of its amazing gastronomic culture. Some suggested restaurants to visit are: La Chaya Maya (Merida downtown), Amaro (Merida downtown) and Huevos Motuleños Doña Evelia (Motul downtown). Some dishes you should try are: panuchos, salbutes, cochinita pibil, queso relleno, papadzules, etc.
