Creator's Key Takeaways

We had a good time, good food, lovely sites. Yep. Highly recommended.

Everything is lovely. The bean's good. Rice really good. But as I said, not a lot of spice or everything. That is still lovely.

We saw five ruins. Yeah, five ruins. Everything is ruined.

It's kind of fast. I think I think uh Ultimate Abyss is faster. Really? Yeah. Sorry to say.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Book excursions through shore excursions group for smaller groups.
βœ“Pay the $4 recording fee at the ruins to avoid issues.
βœ“Bring water, but the tour guide provides it.

πŸ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Climbing ruins steps β€” Steps can be steep and uneven; take your time and use ropes where available.
Spice levels in Mayan food β€” Food is bland by default; ask for spice on the side if desired.

Join us for Day 4 aboard MSC World America as we visit Costa Maya, Mexico for an unforgettable Mayan Experience excursion (see link below)! 🌴 We explore the incredible Chacchoben Mayan Ruins, one of Costa Maya’s most fascinating archaeological sites, where ancient history comes to life. During our guided walking tour, we learn about the history of this ancient Mayan city, dating back as far as 1000 B.C., and see temples and ceremonial areas surrounded by lush jungle. Then the adventure continues as we visit Chacchoben Village to meet a local Mayan family in their home. We experience authentic Mayan culture, learn about traditions and home remedies, and enjoy a traditional Mayan lunch featuring local dishes and flavors passed down through generations.
