1Calakmul Archaeological Zone
We begin the pick-up and then we head towards the Calakmul Reserve, the trip is 3 hours. Once in the reserve we will have a scenic drive through the low tropical jungle for approximately 1.5 hours and will only stop briefly in case of wildlife sightings. After crossing the jungle we will explore the Archaeological Zone of Calakmul Mixed Heritage of Humanity according to UNESCO. We explore the areas open to visitors, such as the civic and ceremonial center, the tallest structures over 50 meters high, the solar observatory of equinoxes and solstices, among other multiple uses. Many of the buildings can be climbed, so it is still possible to see the view that previously only the kings and most powerful of the city could see. During the walk you will be accompanied by a guide who will share information related to this world-renowned park that was once the most feared and glorified Mayan settlement.
