With an easy pace, this cultural, religious, and historic sites trip offers the perfect balance—leisurely walking and plenty of time to soak in each locale’s atmosphere.

This tour package’s unique draw lies in its authentic connection to both iconic sites and living Mayan heritage, offering a rich, sophisticated experience that lets you discover the region beyond the usual tourist track.
GAdventures offer all you need for a convenient and safe vacation time. The sceneries during this tour are quite diverse and always breathtaking. Palenque was my highlight. I highly recommend a jungle hike in the early morning (with termites for breakfast!) and a swim in the waterfalls in the afternoon.
Wonderful, pyramids climbing and Cenotes.
This was an incredible opportunity to commune with ancient and current Mayan culture. I had powerfully deep experiences with the ancient ruins and the church that we visited that I will always remember. The lessons learned from the Mayan history and culture were impactful as I reflect on the current times we are in. I would absolutely recommend this trip to others. It is my favorite G Adventure's tour.
Fantastic tour
Got to see alot in a short space of time in Mexico and Guatemala. Logistics were taken care of, that made it easier as a solo travellers. Just take note of the long hours on the bus days.
I loved the crew I made friends with! I learnt lots from JC and saw so much! I loved it all except never again will I do a home stay! I will sign a waiver!!!!! (I did do a home stay in Bali and it was absolutely fine- it was basically a hotel/hostel with the family living on site) But this family on this trip you could tell it was all about money. They had construction workers there, the children didn?t engage with us, the mother didn?t want to engage with us either, she sat at a completely different table and spoke to us across the room. They didn?t eat dinner with us. They then left for Zumba straight after our dinner! It was all somewhat manageable until there was no running water! Unaccceptable!
This trip was everything I wanted it to be and more! It had the perfect balance of activities - from relaxing by the water, to outdoor recreation, great food, and an incredibly immersive cultural experience that's truly unforgettable.
I had a great time and saw some amazing places!
