Itinerary
- Zona Arqueologica de Palenque: After pickup from your hotel in Palenque city, you will travel to the Archaeological site of Palenque. Located in the middle of lush vegetation, the UNESCO World Heritage site served as one of the most important ceremonial centers of the Maya culture during the Classic period. Almost 200 years before the pre-Columbian ruins were discovered in the 18th century, the nearby city was named by the Spanish — a literal translation of the Ch’ol word otulún, which means fenced or fortified place.
- Cascadas de Misol-Ha: Misol Ha has over 35 meters high, the sunning “sweeping water” empties into a deep calm pool at the base of jungle-covered cliffs.
Guide not included - Cascadas de Agua Azul: Enjoy the beauty of the mountain landscapes and the wonderful Agua Azul Falls. This place consists of many waterfalls following one after another. The larger waterfall may be as high as 6 meters (20 feet). The perfect place to make beautiful photos. If the weather allows, you will have time for swimming in the crystal falls water.
You will have time to taste the food of any restaurant on your own.
