Creator's Key Takeaways

This excursion was sponsored by the ship.

Chichen Itza is one of the most famous archaeological sites in the world.

You definitely don't want to go here without a tour in my opinion because I learned a lot of things about these pyramids that I wouldn't have known otherwise.

It was a great experience. I've never been, the kids have never been.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Try to be on time for the excursion.
Be prepared with sunscreen due to heat and little shade.
Bring electric fans for kids to help with temperature.
Consider mobility issues as there is walking on gravelly paths.
Book a tour to learn about the pyramids and history.
