Mexico: Mayan Route of Yucatan, tailor-made by car

The 'Mayan Trail of Yucatan' is a self-drive tour around one the country's most stunning regions that will take you to a whole host of World Heritage Sites and the sun-kissed Costa Maya. What's more, you'll get a fascinating insight into this incredible civilisation, famous the world over thanks to amazing archaeological sites such as Chichen Itza, Uxmal, Palenque, Calakmul and Tulum. The disappearance of this brilliant Mesoamerican culture is still one of the great mysteries of history. Successive centuries of splendour gave the world vital knowledge about astronomy, mathematics, time calculation, agriculture, architecture, cuisine and natural medicine, which today can all be seen at the magnificent archaeological sites. This road trip also offers a fantastic opportunity to stop at must-sees such as Valladolid, Merida and Campeche. Thanks to the freedom of your rental car, you can also visit eco-tourism attractions such as Lake Bacalar, the Sian Ka'an Reserve, Hel-Há or the XCARET Park. You'll discover an abundance of nature! The trip starts and ends in the heavenly Mexican Caribbean, where you can enjoy all the entertainment and, of the course, the blissful sensation of lying on a sunbed in picture-postcard locations such as Cancun or Playa del Carmen, or on the islands of Holbox, Mujeres or Cozumel. Can you imagine a better plan for your holiday?
