Chukum cenote swim and flavours of the Yucatan Peninsula

Chukum cenote swim and flavours of the Yucatan Peninsula

The cool rush of freshwater as you plunge into the Chukum Cenote awaits you on this flavour-packed tour that explores the Yucatan Peninsula's colourful culture and cuisine. After arriving in the pastel-painted town of Valladolid, you'll head to a lively local market where the air is thick with fragrant spices and the stalls overflow with fresh produce. Sofia, one of our local expert guides, says “Valladolid's market isn't just a place to shop, it's where you will feel the heart of Yucatan. The stories, the flavours, the people…it all starts there.” You'll head to a traditional mill to discover the ancient art of transforming corn into masa – the base of Mexico's famous tortilla. Then, you'll learn about the native Chukum tree, whose bark is used in both ancient and modern designs. You'll take part in a traditional Mayan ceremony before that well-earned cool-down dip in the cenote. Next up, you'll wander through a garden to harvest a few fresh picks before visiting a thatched-roof space and traditional Mayan house, each offering a glimpse into daily life shaped by the community. Then, it's time to get hands-on with workshops focusing on ancient Mayan cooking techniques. You'll master the art of salsa, press your own tortillas, and learn about the beloved cochinita pibil, a slow-roasted regional classic. After all the discovery, fun and creativity, you'll then enjoy a buffet lunch bursting with those rich traditional Yucatecan flavours.
