Chichen Itza Private Tour and Cooking Class
Private experience visiting the archaeological site of Chichen Itza, followed by an authentic Mexican cooking class
Visit the stunning Chichen Itza archaeological site, one of the seven wonders of the world on this private tour. This tour starts a bit earlier than most tours, arriving at Chichen Itza before the big crowds get there. Marvel at the exceptional architectural and astronomical knowledge the Mayans possessed, visible in all buildings of the site. Learn about Mayan culture, its history and rituals, and how their culture has impacted today's society in the region. Following the visit, enjoy an authentic Mexican cooking class imparted by local people, learning how to make authentic tamales from corn dough. While cooking with traditional Mexican ingredients, learn about the history of the corn and of the tamale itself, a traditional meal enjoyed all over the country. Accompany the meal with "fresh water", refreshments made with local fruits and herbs.
