Qué te espera

Explora el Parque Tankah, en la Riviera Maya de México, con este National Geographic Day Tour. Tras una introducción, podrás nadar en dos cenotes, antaño considerados portales al inframundo maya.

También visitarás el cenote Naval para una aventurera sesión de piragüismo y el cenote Azul para darte otro revitalizante baño en sus aguas cristalinas.

The trip oneself was good the cenotes were great particularly the last one. The mozzies however were out of control I know this is difficult to control but maybe advising customers regarding long sleeves etc would help all our group were bitten to shreds. The Mayan village was also not a great experience not much to see. Buffet lunch delicious

In de informatie staat vermeld dat je gaat koken met de Maya bewoners. Dat is niet gebeurd. Meer van verwacht. Het is een veredelt pretpark weinig cultuur erg touristisch.

Er stond kanoën op het programma. Dit was ons niet verteld, waardoor wij verrast waren. Mijn moeder heeft niet aan deze activiteit meegedaan, omdat ze niet van boten is. Verder was de gids vriendelijk, maar hield geen rekening met ons. Wij liepen achteraan en we moesten onze eigen weg vinden, omdat ze niet achterom keken. Verder werd er weinig verteld over de Maya cultuur. We stonden misschien 2 min stil bij het dorp en het maken van tortilla’s, dat was erg jammer.

Schwimmen in den Cenoten eher langweilig. Kanu fahren super. Führer war sehr gut. Laut Buchung länger als 8 Std. Nach 6,5 Std waren wir daheim. Essen mittelmäßig. Viel zu viel auf der Straße unterwegs. Insgesamt hat es mir mittelmäßig gefallen

We had a really good guide, Victor, who was able to point out interesting facts and guide us through the day. Being part of a small group made it a lovely experience. The only downside was being bitten by the mosquitoes, but that’s what you get in the jungle after rainfall.
