Want to be one of the first visitors of the day to explore Chichén Itzá? Welcome the day with these top Chichén Itzá Sunrise tickets. Your tour guide's background in archaeology and Maya culture will make it easy for you to imagine how the Maya once inhabited this ancient city as dawn turns slowly into another spectacular day. Stroll through the well-preserved ruins, learn all about Maya mythology, philosophy and cosmology, and get a special in-depth understanding of the meaning behind the stone sculptures and platforms. Then beat the heat with a refreshing swim at Cenote Saamal, before tucking into a Mexican buffet lunch. To end the trip, visit Ek Balam, which was probably one of the most important places for the kingdom of Tlalol. Climb the pyramids to soak up panoramic views of the Mayan jungle at your feet.
