Overview
What makes this experience truly special is not only the places you'll visit, but the way you'll experience them. With small groups, typically 4 to 6 guests, you'll enjoy a relaxed pace, plenty of time for questions, photos, and meaningful conversations with your guide. If you're traveling with family or friends, we're happy to organize the experience exclusively for your group. Throughout the day, you'll discover a different side of Cancun: the fascinating legacy of the Maya, breathtaking Caribbean views, and the vibrant local market where Cancun residents shop every day. Rather than simply visiting these places, you'll learn their stories, traditions, and everyday life, gaining a deeper understanding of the city beyond the hotel zone. Our goal is for you to leave feeling that you've truly experienced the soul of Cancun, not just its famous beaches. Important: This experience requires a minimum booking of 4 guests.

Mayan Museum of Cancun
1.5 hours
You know that Cancun is not just beach and drinks, and that's why you're booking this excursion, where we just start showing you the Mayan Museum, right in the middle of the hotel zone, explaining to you a bit of Mayan history, while exploring the amazing gardens and beautiful Caribbean nature, passing through the Mexican tradition of the "alebrijes", statues of folkloric colored creatures. Cancun (Kaan kuum, in the Mayan language, meaning "the snake nest") cannot be really explored, without starting with its Mayan traditions and cultures, perfectly exposed in this museum and explained by our guides. The museum is immersed in an amazing jungle, where you will admire huge ceiba trees, representing Life for the Mayans, and connecting their three worlds. The Mexican traditions are exposed too, especially represented by the "alebrijes" statues, where the imagination of a sculptor gives life to colored creatures, a mix of different animals. This is just the beginning of our adventure!

Mercado 23
1 hour
Local life cannot be experienced without visiting a local market and seeing local vendors, admiring their products' intense colours, and smelling the typical flavours of Mexican cuisine! We prefer taking you to a smaller market, not that crowded and touristic like the bigger one, to let you experience where the local people are really going to shop and eat, because our idea is to live a realistic Mexican life, not visiting touristic shops, where forcing you to buy products, to get commissions eventually. Mexican people are naturally friendly and you will feel comfortable visiting their stands, without any pressure to buy anything, but just giving them a nice smile, while passing through colourful fruits and vegetables, smelling flowers and local food. Our meal will be at the end of the excursion, at an international restaurant, where sitting and eating comfortably good food, having air conditioning on, offering vegetarian and vegan options too, and also caring for possible allergies
