The Experience

Discover two remarkable Maya archaeological sites hidden deep within the Lacandona Jungle, combining ancient history with an unforgettable jungle adventure. Cruise along the Usumacinta River by boat to reach Yaxchilán, a spectacular archaeological site surrounded by lush rainforest and known for its carved stelae, lintels, and impressive Maya architecture. Continue to Bonampak, famous for its extraordinary and remarkably preserved murals depicting scenes of Maya life, ceremonies, and warfare. Along the way, enjoy a local breakfast and experience the remote landscapes of Chiapas that make this journey much more than an archaeological tour.
