Join us for a once-in-a-lifetime expedition to Calakmul, departing from your hotel lobby at 4:30 am. This 16-hour tour offers a captivating exploration of the ancient Mayan city and its surrounding jungle, revealing tales of power, glory, and mystery.

Your journey begins with a stop in the town of Escárcega for breakfast before continuing on to Calakmul. As you traverse the 60 kilometres of the Biosphere Reserve, keep an eye out for local fauna such as ocellated turkeys, hoofaheasants, peccaries, foxes, and agoutis.

Upon arrival at Calakmul, delve into the heart of the ancient capital of the Kaanul dynasty, the most dominant power of the Classic period. Marvel at the majestic structures that once stood as symbols of power and dominance over rival cities such as Tikal and Palenque. Climb some of the main buildings, including Structures I and II, for unparalleled views of the Mayan sky and the endless expanse of the jungle.

After exploring Calakmul, enjoy a delicious lunch in Champotón, a renowned fishing town celebrated for its gastronomy. Then, relax as we journey back to Campeche, reflecting on the awe-inspiring wonders you've encountered throughout the day.
