Description
Do you love beautiful water and off-the-beaten-path locations? Join us for a day of exploring stunning archeological sites amid lush fauna, paired with boating and floating in the turquoise waters of the freshwater lagoons of the Sian Ka’an Biosphere.
Begin by exploring the ancient structures surrounded by vast plant life and the melodies of chirping tropical birds. The average time spent at the site is about 45 minutes.
Next, follow us along a secret path that leads to a stunning network of turquoise lagoons, arguably the most beautiful segment of the Sian Ka’an Biosphere.
Hop aboard for a quick boat ride to a hidden canal system that now serves as a lazy river.
Float in the soothing turquoise waters through beautiful mangroves, surrounded by endemic fish. Enjoy an ecosystem that is nothing short of therapy for the body and mind. We usually spend about two hours here.
Afterward, you can choose to head home or stop for lunch* at any location you’d like in the area. Private tours are all about freedom, and with the help of your host, you can choose exactly what you’d like to enjoy. Our transportation to any option in the area will be at no extra cost.
**Guests cover the lunch expense.
