Ride back in time through the sacred land of the Maya, the oldest and most mysterious civilization in the world. You will be riding through the lush rain forest of Cozumel, discovering Cozumel's hidden tropical savannas. Look out for the birds and different animal species that may come your way! You will visit El Cedral, Cozumel's oldest Mayan ruin. Its historical tradition dates back to the island's discovery on May 3, 1518 and re-population in 1847 due to the war of Casts taking place in the State of Yucatan. Long ago, this site was taken over by farming and marine activities. On your ride back, be sure to take notice of the natural sounds and sights around you. In this relaxed paradise the Mayans lived in harmony, and this feeling of nature and man becoming one still lives on today.
Cozumel is located just 40 minutes by sea from Playa del Carmen, and the frequent and modern ferries make the trip across very comfortable. From the mainland, many tours and visits to the Mayan world are available. The most important and monumental city of the Mayans is Chichen Itza.
