Cancun, Cozumel & the Yucatan - Yucatan State & the Maya Heartland

Yucatán state sees less tourism than its flashy neighbor, Quintana Roo. It’s sophisticated and savvy, and the perfect spot for travelers interested in cultural exploration. Most come to this area to explore the ancient Maya sites, like the Ruta Puuc.

- marvel at colonial architecture or enjoy a free concert in the cultural capital of Mérida

- find out why they named Chichén Itzá one of the ‘new seven wonders of the world,’ and why Ek’ Balam should have made the short list

- scan the salty horizon for flamingos at the Reserva de la Biosfera Ría Celestún or Reserva de la Biosfera Ría Lagartos
