PROGRAM
Day 1
Our first stop will be Coba, to visit this famous archaeological site nestled in the middle of the jungle. A tourist site indeed, but rich in history and nature. We will explore this site by bike or “mayan limo” to not miss anything of this grandiose city. We will visit a superb cenote for swimming, before tasting several Yucatecan specialties. In the afternoon, we will visit the spider monkey reserve: a vast protected area where we will take a short hike in the jungle to search for these beautiful primates. We will go canoeing on the lake and even try a zip line. Then, we will head to a nearby Maya village where we will spend the next 2 nights in rustic and comfortable cabins.
Day 2
In the village, a family has created a conservation center for the white-tailed deer, the ocellated turkey, the famous Mayan Melipona bees, and a few other species. Here, we will spend the morning getting to know the project and even participating in various tasks such as animal feeding. Then, we will visit a family living away from other villages to enjoy a typical meal in a green setting. In the afternoon, we will visit another Maya community that preserves a beautiful part of the jungle, which we will explore through hiking, canoeing, zip-lining, and even rappelling down into a stunning cenote. We will spend our second night in the Maya village.
Days 3 et 4
Jungle Trek 2 days / 1 night. Today, we depart for a community where a full breakfast awaits us before the trek. Afterward, we’ll embark on our hike through the jungle, passing by 3 water points where we might encounter birds, frogs, turtles, and many other species. We’ll have a picnic along the way before reaching our campsite, where we’ll set up hammocks protected by mosquito nets for a magical night in nature. Dinner over a wood fire prepared with the help of our Maya friends and a nighttime walk around the camp will conclude a timeless day. The next day, after the return hike, a hearty meal awaits us at the home of one of our guide-sherpas’ families.

An eco-friendly tour
For this tour, we collaborate with the villagers from the nearby community. Several families are involved in this project: providing food for our meals, cooking some of our meals, and assisting us in carrying items to the campsite (water, food, hammocks, etc.). We spend genuine time in Maya villages, interacting with multiple families, fostering cultural exchange, and providing economic support to these families. This tour ensures that modern Maya culture is preserved and can be transmitted to both visitors and future generations. It’s an immersive experience in today’s villages and the Maya jungle.
