Your adventure begins when we pick you up at the lobby of your hotel and take you to the picturesque village of Tankah, a place surrounded by nature; you’ll be surprised by how the inhabitants of this area have preserved their essence. Here we will enter the ecological park, where you will discover four different cenotes. These deep blue natural pools are exits from a system of underground rivers, a unique feature of the Yucatan Peninsula. They are called "breathing holes", the Mayans believe they are places where the underworld unites with life on Earth.
You savor local seasonal fruit before walking on trails to reach the cenotes, enjoying the regional flora and fauna. Jump off the diving board or fly through the zip line, landing in the waters of the Piranha Cenote. This cenote is partially open, allowing the sun's rays to slide through the tangled branches of the forest, you become a relaxing float surrounded by stalactites created over millions of years.
The third stop is even more exciting! Cross the Naval Cenote, a large open cenote, zipline and/or canoe while relaxing and admiring the flora that surrounds it. Our last Cenote, Cenote Azul, you will have the opportunity to relax in its crystal-clear waters.
Final stop, the Village of Tankah, the inhabitants are dedicated to the care of the park; here you’ll learn about the richness of their customs and the culture that they inherited from their Mayan ancestors and have preserved until today.
Finally, you’ll enjoy a feast of local delicacies, including handmade tortillas, guacamole and chicken "pibil", a Yucatecan culinary delight, which is prepared by cooking it in an underground oven – an ancient technique.
