Join us on a moderately active half-day tour to the ancient place of Mayan pilgrimage known as Chacchoben, "The Place of Red Corn." Onboard the bus your guide will brief you on interesting tour details. When you arrive, surrounded by tropical jungle, your guide will escort you through the ruins, giving you complete explanations of the sacred temples and other structures located at the site. See the original red paint on the stucco walls of one of the pyramids and the temple where a mural was found showing the astronomical positions of the planet Venus. You will have time to climb the Gran Basamento. Here archaeologists found ceremonial offerings dating to around 1,000 B.C. Also learn about the medicinal plants that are still used by the modern-day Mayan people. Relax with a complimentary beverage and soak up the images of the unfolding centuries on your drive back to the pier.
