About This Tour
Discover Kohunlich, one of Bacalar’s most undervalued Mayan gems, on a private tour guided by certified, professional native guides. Famous for the imposing Temple of the Sun (Temple of the Masquerades), Kohunlich offers an authentic experience among ceremonial squares, pyramids and structures surrounded by a unique forest of palm trees, away from the crowds of the most well-known sites. This tour is designed for travelers looking for something extraordinary: tranquility, time for photography and a deep connection to Mayan history and worldview. You can choose between two options: 1. - Visit only Kohunlich, ideal for a relaxed cultural experience. 2. - Combo Kohunlich + Dzibanché, which adds the visit to Dzibanché, ancient capital of the Kingdom of the Serpent, where you will explore monumental pyramids hidden in the jungle and live an experience comparable in depth to the great Mayan sites, but without masses or hurries, and without traveling long distances.
