About this trip

Have no fear leaving Cancun to visit these archaeological sites. Tulum Archeological Zone grants visitors a horizon of turquoise ocean, and check a Wonder of the World off the list when seeing the great Chichen Itza steps. Coba Archeological Zone may require a workout, but the view of the ocean is worth it.
