Under the guidance of our local cook, you'll master the art of crafting Chicken Pibil, employing a technique that involves slow cooking wrapped in banana leaves within a specially crafted earth oven. Our culinary journey also ventures into the realm of chili peppers.

Gain insights into the intricate embroidery techniques adorning the region's distinctive attire, skillfully crafted by local women. Finally, bask in the allure of Ik Kil, a sacred cenote offering rejuvenating waters.
