The Sun God shines all day then transforms itself into a jaguar to pass through the underworld. Learn more about these Maya and pre-Hispanic philosophies and belief systems, while viewing sacred sites, natural wonders, and reveling in rich Mexican traditions and vegan food. This is our Mayan Magic Tour of Mexico.
We’ll camp out on the site of the pyramids of Teotihuacan, before taking a hot air balloon ride at sunrise the next morning.
We’ll admire floating gardens, explore the pyramids at Chichen Itza, delve into Mexican-German artist Frida Kahlo’s life at her blue house museum, swim in pristine cenotes or volcanic sink holes, hike to the top of a sacred mountain with a hidden temple at the top, indulge in local vegan delicacies, while on a rooftop overlooking the luminescent skyline, and dance salsa in the Zocalo or central square of Mexico City’s vibrant plaza.
These are just some of the wonders that await participants. ellorawellness.com
