Product Info

-What you can expect-
On this self-guided walking tour of Coba, you'll start by hearing the story of how the Mayan advanced civilization rose and fell. You’ll get to know some of the little-known facts about the unique trees found in these ruins and what importance they held in ancient Mayan society.

Start from the ball court, a site likely used for ceremonial purposes, to depict a struggle between dark and light. Pretty high stakes for a ball game!

See La Iglesia Pyramid and the Crossroads Pyramid, an example of an unusual twist on the usual Mayan architecture. You’ll notice the surprisingly intact network of ancient roads crisscrossing the site. The next major landmark is the Pyramid of the Painted Lintel. This impressive limestone structure was once painted in bright colors, and you can still find traces of those colors if you know where to look.

Learn all about the religious beliefs and practices of the ancient Mayans, as well as the infamous calendar by which they tracked the passage of years. Find yourself at the foot of the Nohoch Mul Pyramid, the second-largest Mayan pyramid in the entire world. But what’s better than admiring a pyramid like this from the bottom? Climbing to the top! Scale the 120 steps and survey the Coba Ruins from a whole new perspective.
