What to expect

On this private tour, you'll see how a Mayan community lives before taking part in their sacred rituals. Your evening begins with a tour of the village, after which you'll stop to learn how tortillas are made from scratch. Then, you'll take part in a sacred purification ceremony inside a traditional temazcal, a volcanic steam bath, to cleanse and renew the mind and body. Next, you'll head over to the local watering hole – a natural cenote – for a nighttime swim, before rounding the evening off with some traditional Mayan fare.

This was an amazing experience which surpassed our expectations, everyone was very welcoming and went above and beyond to make this such a brilliant unique experience. We paid for a private tour, which was not an insignificant cost, but definitely worth every penny, we were still asked for tips for the Maya family, driver and guide all of which were well deserving and we understand rely heavily on tipping, we would however hope that a large percentage of the cost of the trip went back to them.

The trip in itself was good visiting a traditional maya village and learning about their culture. The disappointing thing was the trip was advertised as being shown how to make tortillas and chicken from scratch which didn’t happen we were given a meal prepared by the cook. Very disappointing and feel the trip is being miss sold as this was one of the main reasons a we booked it.

The cenote was stunning! And being able to swim in it was stunning. The Temazcal ritual was amazing to experience. The TUI communication could have been improved. Our time was changed last minute without explanation and made private and the reps at the hotel didn’t know about it or why. It looked very dodgy and unsafe at first, but was ok in the end. Definitely not good service from TUI. But the driver and guide were amazing! Thank you to Jane, the Shaman and the Mayan community.
