Here we will learn about its history through its museum, Mayan pyramids, and Mayan ball courts in ruins that tell the story of a forgotten empire that, through its ruins, wants to continue to exist through its secrets and mysticism hidden among them. This activity is suitable for families, young people and adults and of any age. In addition, we will visit a local farm called the Swiss Corner, full of animals such as horses, ponies, goats, and sheep. We will also have the opportunity to enjoy a local lunch at the Swiss Corner restaurant.
