Want to climb a pyramid?

Published on Mar, 2024

Being able to climb the steps of Ek Balam was wonderful. Not many options elsewhere to do this. The Cenote was beautiful. John and Omar were great guides, friendly and professional. A bit of humour mixed along with the history lessons.

Very interesting
