Mayan Riviera Adventure
ITINERARY
1
Riviera Maya
Beach
After a flight full of anticipation, you'll touch down in Cancún, from where you'll be taken to your new home for the duration of your Mexican adventure – the Hotel Andaz Mayakoba. Set within the beautiful resort of Mayakoba in a prime beachfront location, the Hotel Andaz is the jewel in Mayakoba's crown.

The resort was designed to blend in with its natural surroundings, and to complement rather than detract from the stunning scenery. As a result, there is no end of coves, caves, beaches and woodland stretches to explore. There'll be time for all of that, of course, but for now, you'll want to enjoy a complimentary dinner before relaxing and taking in your new surroundings as you recover from your journey.

Riviera Maya
Activity & Adventure
Today your adventure steps up a gear with a private snorkeling tour of Dos Ojos cenote. Cenotes are ancient natural sinkholes, and this one was considered sacred to the Mayan people – it's easy to see why. The cave is striking, flooded with crystal-clear blue water, lined with colorful rocks and lit by shards of light from above. The cave system is vast but worries not – you'll have your own private guide who will meet you in the hotel lobby, drive you to Dos Ojos, and take you on a short jungle walk to one of the world's largest underground rivers. Here you will be taken through the cave's many chambers to see the stunning stalagmites and stalactites.

These ruins are popular with tourists, but you'll enter through a private entrance, avoiding stress and feeling like a VIP. You'll have your own knowledgeable guide who will offer fascinating insights into life in the pre-Colombian city, and show you sights such as for sacrificial cenotes, sacred temples, and even an ancient ball court.
