Overview

Experience firsthand the traditional Day of the Dead celebration at any time of the year! Start visiting the Convent of San Bernardino de Siena (Valladolid), a place filled with rich history and architectural splendor, to then be transported to a Mayan village where the Day of the Dead will come alive next to a magical cenote.

Engage in the ancient art of Mayan body painting, indulge in the flavors of traditional Mexican liquor, tequila, and savor the rich essence of its gastronomy. Also, experience the spirituality of a sacred cenote at night, which is believed to be a portal between the living and the dead.

You will be for sure captivated by what your guide tells you. Then, you will participate in a Mayan ceremony of offering to the dead led by your guide, to pay homage to your ancestors.

And finally, you will enjoy a Mexican tacos dinner to completely feel as so! This tour will allow you to be part of the Mayan community for one day!

Sorting, ranking, and search results

Activity name

Cool Destinations wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
