Trek Notes

Our Mexico tours are open aged departures jointly operated by TrekAmerica & Grand American Adventures.

This tour is operated in private vehicles and does not use local transport. You will not lose time waiting for local buses, shuttles and other inefficient means of travel, which can waste up to half of your valuable holiday time. While local transport tours maybe cheaper, they cannot provide the efficient, safe and controlled transport that we can.

Private Departures

Why not arrange your own TrekAmerica departure? For groups of 8 or more, we can offer private departures on any of our published itineraries enabling friends, families or organizations to enjoy our classic "Trek" style of travel at special rates. Although tours will run as per our standard itinerary shown here, slight modifications may be considered and dates can be chosen to suit your needs. (Subject to seasonal/operational restrictions). So contact us today and start planning your own adventure.

• Day: 1-2 Cancun & Merida

  We hit the road running in Cancun and cruise through the Yucatan to the spectacular Chichen Itza ruins. Famous for their well-preserved condition, you will explore the living history of the Mayans and imagine how their legacy has lasted throughout the centuries. After exploring this amazing archeological site, we carry on to Merida, capital of the Yucatan for two exciting evenings. The city is full of historic architecture, local markets and surprisingly good restaurants. It's a great place to explore or chill out and absorb the atmosphere, as well as to purchase the famously comfortable Mexican hammocks!
  Accommodation: Hotel included. Meals paid locally.

• Day: 3-4 Palenque

  Leaving the city and its modern conveniences behind, we head for the wild side. Hiking around the lost city of Uxmal is a feast for the senses as the jungle hums with life. Then, we carry on to mystical Palenque. Palenque is home to some of the most spectacular ruins in Mexico and they are set in the heart of the steamy jungle. Be ready with your camera as there are numerous howler monkeys and tropical birds in the trees, not to mention hidden waterfalls and natural swimming pools.
  Accommodation: Hotel included. Meals paid locally.

• Day: 5-7 San Cristobal de las Casas

  From the jungles to the mountains, we continue the journey to San Cristobal de Las Casas, the heart of the state of Chiapas. With fascinating Indian markets and cobblestone streets to wander, you will be sure to fall in love with this colonial mountain town. After exploring the city try one of the great restaurants - each having their own special flair.
  Accommodation: Hotel included. Meals paid locally.

• Day: 8 Chiapas

  Driving back down to the lower plains, we visit the rambling waterfalls of Agua Azul, or Blue Water. Stunning blue-green waterfalls form perfect natural pools where you can kick back and just relax in the sun. Then, nature never ceases to impress as Misol Ha Waterfall cascades some 35 metres down into a jungle lagoon, forming the perfect place for a refreshing swim.
  Accommodation: Hotel included. Meals paid locally.

• Day: 9 Bacalar

  From the jungle of Chiapas, we travel across the vast Yucatan peninsula to the crystal clear "Lagoon of Seven Colours" at Bacalar and the famous Cenote Azul. After a swim in the Caribbean spring water and the huge cenotes, there will be time to enjoy the sunset with an ice-cold margarita.
  Accommodation: Hotel included. Meals paid locally.

• Day: 10-13 Caribbean Beaches

  And now, the crown jewel of the trip - four nights on the Mayan Riviera. The Caribbean sunny beaches are a dream come true and there is more than just perfect blue water and white sand, adrenaline awaits! Snorkel or SCUBA the underground caves system, quad bike in the jungle or explore Xel-Ha Marine Park before enjoying a drink on the beach in the evening.
  Accommodation: Hotel included. Meals paid locally.

• Day: 14 Cancun

  After enjoying the morning on the beach and perfecting your tan, we will return to Cancun to say farewell. Hasta la vista, baby!
