    How to Get From Belize to Cancun

    March 7, 2018 / 1 Comment

    Chichen Itza or Uxmal?

    March 6, 2018 / No Comments

    Mexico is home to a number of Mayan ruins, all of them unique in their own way. It would be ideal to visit all of them, but realistically, many travelers are short on time and only have time to visit one. Having visited both, I will highlight the pros and cons of each and help you answer the question: “Chichen Itza or Uxmal?”   Chichen Itza Advantages 1) Easily accessible: about a two-hour ride from Cancun. You can go by yourself or arrange a tour through your hotel. 2) 1 of the 7 Wonders of the World! 3) Very safe since you can’t climb anything. The chances of getting injured is…

    Day Trip to Izamal from Merida

    March 6, 2018 / 2 Comments

    Izamal is truly one of the hidden gems in the Yucatan area and is worth a visit if you have some time to spare. Izamal is one of the oldest and most important Mayan cities. Locals refer to it as a city of three cultures due to its blend of the pre-colonial, colonial, and modern eras. The Mayan structures in Izamal were so massive that rather than destroy them, like the Spaniards often did, they built churches on top of them. Getting there From Merida, it’s about an hour or so by bus (70km). To reach Izamal, take the bus from Noreste station on Calle 67. Take the bus bound…
