Mexico Yucatan Loop

Day 1 - Cancún
We're starting in Cancún! Caribbean ocean and white sand beaches - that's the vibe we're going for! Cancún is the perfect place to start, it's close to the airport and ideal for easing into the Mexican way of life! Want to explore like a local? Wander over to Market 28, Parque de las Palapas and Cancun beach to browse dozens of Mexican clothing boutiques and accessory stalls. In the evening, it’s time for our welcome dinner where you can get to know your new travel friends aka TruFam, over dinner and a few cervezas by the pool. Salud!

Day 2 - Cancún/Holbox
We're moving onto Holbox! We're not wasting anytime - we're searching for an insane beach straight away! We'll catch a boat over to Holbox and enjoy a chilled afternoon as a group. We can spend the afternoon getting to know each other and watch the sun set in one of the most gorgeous spots - get your cameras ready! Mexico sunsets are known to be legendary!

Day 3 - Holbox
Enjoy a chilled morning before we head out on a busy day! Today is all about exploring and discovering the stunning magic of the islands. We'll visit Bird Island and then head over to the ‘’Eye Of The Water’’ cenote, an amazing natural sinkhole with freshwater springs in the middle of mangroves! You have to see it to believe it because it is really magical! Finally we’re off to Passion Island which is home to flocks of PINK FLAMINGOS! Yes they really are pink - yet another magical moment on day 3 - we're spoiling you already! Next, it’s time to hop back onto our boat and enjoy a few beers if you fancy it (or your drink of choice, you do you boo.) Note: Like all wild animals, it might not be possible to see flamingos at certain times of the year! Travel from April to October for the best chance of spotting some :)

Day 4 - Holbox/Mérida
It's time! We are off to one of the seven wonders of the world, The Mayan Site of Chichén Itzá, a must-see! We will leave Holbox early and once we arrive, we’ll have a guided tour to learn about the amazing history of the Mayan civilisation. After ticking this amazing landmark off our bucket list, it’s time to head to Cenote Yokdzonot. Once we’ve had an afternoon splashing about, floating on our backs and looking up to an unreal view, it’s, unfortunately, time to leave. But fear not, more good times are pending as we head off to Merida and arrive in the early evening. We’ll go on an orientation walk around the city to see all the spectacular sights. Welcome to Merida!

Day 5 - Mérida
Get ready to venture slightly outside of Merida, cycle between three stunning cenotes, with a spot of lunch along the way - we'll have earnt a big'old meal! After we’ve spent our day swimming in the Cenotes, we’ll head back to main town Merida to chill out for a few hours, before it’s time to get ready for our evening of Tequila Tasting Baby!!! We'll head out to sample some delicious local food, or what we like to call, the ultimate Mexican feast! Tacos & burritos galore! After we’re all tequila’d out, why not try out some salsa dancing at one of the many bars dotted around Merida!

Day 6 - Mérida/Playa Del Carmen
Rise and shine Chicas and Chicos! It's our last full day in Mexico - we're not crying you are! This morning we'll wave goodbye to Merida and set off towards Playa del Carmen, arriving in the early afternoon. It's up to you how you want to spend your final afternoon on tour, relax on the beach, check out the best beach bars around or just enjoy exploring Playa del Carmen! We'll then all get together for our final evening together as a group - let's make it a good one!

Day 7 - Playa Del Carmen
It's check out day! It's going to be emotional and if we're honest we're not quite ready to say goodbye...Time really does fly when you’re having fun. If your adventure doesn’t stop here, your TruTravels Leader will be happy to help with any onward travel but if it’s homebound then don’t be a stranger! Stay epic, TruFam, it’s been a dream!
