    Ruins & Beach – The Perfect Combination

    Why choose between history and relaxation? This multi-day package lets you experience the best of the Yucatan Peninsula: the awe-inspiring ancient ruins of Chichen Itza and the turquoise Caribbean waters of Isla Mujeres.

    Day 1: Chichen Itza – Depart from Cancun for a full-day guided tour of Chichen Itza with cenote swim and lunch. Return to Cancun in the evening.

    Day 2: Isla Mujeres – Ferry to Isla Mujeres (20 minutes from Cancun). Snorkel in the underwater museum MUSA, explore the island by golf cart, and relax on Playa Norte — consistently ranked one of the best beaches in the Caribbean.

    Both days can be booked separately — explore our Chichen Itza day tours and pair with any Isla Mujeres excursion. Or see our multi-day Yucatan packages for more extensive itineraries.

    Booking Tip

    Book Chichen Itza for Day 1 and Isla Mujeres for Day 2. You'll be more tired after the Chichen Itza day trip, so beach relaxation the next day is the perfect recovery. The Ultramar ferry from Cancun to Isla Mujeres departs every 30 minutes.

    What Travelers Say

    4.7/5from 3 reviews

    Increíble tour desde Mérida

    "Being so close to Chichen Itza from Mérida made the day so relaxed. We arrived before the crowds and had time to really absorb the history. The guide's passion for Mayan culture was infectious. Highly recommend the Mérida departure."

    Miguel R.

    Great tour, long day

    "The tour itself was excellent — knowledgeable guide, delicious lunch in Valladolid, and the cenote was beautiful. Only reason for 4 stars is the 2.5-hour drive each way from Cancun. Consider staying in Valladolid if possible."

    David & Maria P.

    Miami, FL2025-12-01

    Perfect family day trip

    "Traveled with our kids (8 and 11) and the guide kept them engaged with stories about Mayan ball games and astronomy. The cenote swim was their favorite part. Family-friendly pace, not rushed at all."
