There’s a reason why people flock to visit the Seven Wonders of the World. They’ve stood for thousands of years and serve as a magnificent testament to human creation and ancient technology, and did you know you can easily visit one of these Seven Wonders while enjoying the sun and sands of Cancun?
With Apple Vacations, you can add a private guided tour to the 1,000-year-old ruins of Chichen Itza with Amstar DMC on your all-inclusive Cancun getaway. It's approximately 120 miles from the Cancun Hotel Zone, offering a culturally stimulating day away from the resort. It's like traveling back in time to the Mayan Empire, except with the comforts of a private vehicle, a knowledgeable tour guide, and a curated experience.

The Itinerary
This tour is a full-day, private experience, ranging from 10-12 hours, depending on your resort location. Your bilingual tour guide will greet you at your hotel in the morning between the hours of 7 a.m. and 8:45 a.m., and your group will board a private, air-conditioned vehicle to begin your journey to Chichen Itza.
The entry fee to Chichen Itza is included in the price of your guided tour. Upon entry, you’ll see famed Mayan structures like the Temple of Kukulkan, Ball Court, the Observatory, and the Temple of Warriors.
Tip: Plan your Cancun vacation around the spring and autumnal equinox to see slithering snake-like shadows of the Kukulkan, the Serpent God, descend on the main temple.
After an in-depth walkthrough of the historic sites, you’re guide will transport you to the nearby town of Piste for lunch at Pueblo Maya. This heart buffet will include classic Yucatan dishes as well as tamales, fajitas, burgers, and vegan/vegetarian options.
The tour will make a final stop at a nearby cenote, a natural cavernous sinkhole that was once the Mayan’s main water source and their believed “gateway to the gods.” You’ll be able to stop, jump, and swim in the sacred, rejuvenating waters to cool off and experience a unique natural phenomenon.
