| Days 1-5: | Fly into Cancun Airport, take shuttle to Playa Del Carmen, Shangri La Resort, go diving, snorkeling, wind sailing, swimming, sunbathing, and shopping. Go to Heather and Johns wedding Jan 27th. Take a ferry out Cozumel or a collectivo to Tulum, more white sand, amazing ruins... |
| Days 6-7: | Go go Isla Muejers (island of ladies), take bus to Cancun and asked to be dropped off at the ferry. There are limited ferry rides, so you should find out schedule before hand. Last ferry I believe is at 7pm. I rented a hotel room $50 USD and stayed the night. Enjoy great food, beaufitul culture and beaches. Visit more about this place http://www.islamujeresonline.com.mx/ |
| Days 8-9: | Take a bus or rent a car. Merida, a city of about 1 million people, is a wonderful mixture of colonial city and cosmopolitan destination. The famous Mayan pyramids of Chichen-Itza are over 1500 years old and are located only 75 miles from Merida. The name Chichen-Itza is a Mayan word: CHI (mouth) CHEN (well) and ITZA (of the Itza tribe). As the most famous of the Mayan pyramids on the Yucatan peninsula, Chichen Itza has been studied extensively and is the most popular Mayan ruin in Mexico. Much has been written about it. Below are some links to websites with in-depth information about the history of the site. Try to visit Chichen Itza early in the morning or late in the afternoon, as the sun can be punishing at midday. The main attraction is the central pyramid, El Castillo del Serpiente Emplumado.
