Itinerário
Você será buscado no início da manhã para visitar o famoso sítio arqueológico, perdido na selva - Ek Balam (traduzido da língua maia "onça preta"). Aqui, você verá as misteriosas esculturas de "anjos" que guardam a entrada do "reino dos mortos" em forma de boca de uma cascavel. Desde o período pré-clássico até o pós-clássico, foi a sede de um reino maia. O local é conhecido pela preservação do gesso da tumba de Ukit-Kan-Lek-Tok, um rei enterrado na lateral da maior pirâmide.
Em seguida, você visitará a Costa do Golfo para passear em um pequeno barco em uma das mais belas reservas naturais da Península de Yucatán. Navegando pelos manguezais, você observará uma reserva de pássaros em seu habitat natural. Você verá os crocodilos Cayman e verá bandos de flamingos cor de rosa em seu santuário. Depois de um passeio pelo parque um spa natural estará esperando por você.
O ponto culminante do passeio será uma visita à fábrica de tequila, onde você poderá ver o processo de produção da tequila e provar esta bebida maravilhosa. No final do passeio, você será levado de volta ao hotel.

A varied tour with an excellent guide. Boat excursion was fantastic - managed to see crocodiles and flamingos
What a disappointment. This tour started off bad and only because worse. Our guide informed us upon leaving the hotel that the van had been sterilizd and there was no reason to wear a mask. I asked if he has been vaccinated against covid-19. He laughed, "No". I informed him that he was to wear the mask as my wife had not been vaccinated as yet. Ek Balan was ok. It does not compare to the less expensive tour of Chicken it's, however. As a photographer, I was most excited to visit the bird sanctuary billed as a Pink Flamingo Bird Sanctuary. Well, zero birds. The bird sanctuary is at a commercial salt mine. The only thing that was pink was water. We abandoned the tour at this point. My wife and I opted to have drinks at the hotel in Cancun rather than have anymore disappointment.
Dear guest, we are very sorry that you decided to end the tour in the middle and you didn’t take the boat trip to see the wonderful flamingos. The itinerary of this tour is as follows : First activity: visit to the archaeological site Ek Balam Second activity: visit to las Coloradas ( Pink Lake ) Third activity: boat trip tour to see flamingos and lagoon Fourth activity: tequila tasting in Mayapan Our guide informed us that when you arrived at Las Coloradas ( Pink lake), you complained because there was a lot of noise and there were no flamingos that you expected to see. The noise that was there is completely normal because of the salt machines mines in the area, and this is because they are working in the process of making salt. In Las Coloradas you can’t see flamingos. This is only possible taking the boat trip and going to the area of their habitat. There are a huge number of flamingos now. At all times our guide explained to you about that and suggested you not to abandon the tour and take the boat trip to see the flamingos. But for some reason you decided to end it and return to the hotel.
<p>We read other reviews and requested Raul for our tour and we are glad we did. He gave us flavor and history all in a believable down to earth way. He was truly a joy to talk with. Our tour was perfect and the added visit to the salt flats was interesting. The visit to Ek Balam was interesting and a nice addition to the other tours we've taken of the Mayan ruins around the Yucatan. One motivator for us taking this trip was the Pink Flamingos sanctuary. The driver on our boat whipped it around right away to get us close to an alligator wading around and went to extremes to try to get us close to the flamingos. It's never a sure bet if you will see them or get close enough so take a longer lens if you hope to capture them in photos. He took us close to shore to capture more wildlife and grabbed an interesting looking prehistoric creature from the water to show us. Lunch at a local restaurant was a nice addition. The side trip to the Tequila factory wasn't really the factory but stood in for it long ago but still fun to see. Be sure you take money to tip your tour driver, boat driver, guide and waiter at lunch.</p>
<p>This was a wonderful experience. Our guide, Raul, Trip to Mexico was so knowledgeable and so much fun. We thoroughly enjoyed our day with him. We not only learned so much about the experiences that were part of the tour but also about the Mexican culture and way of life. I strongly recommend this tour and ask for Raul, he was wonderful!</p>
