Trip Itinerary
Day 1: Arrival to Merida – Hacienda Xcanatun
Arrival to Merida city, capital of the State of Yucatan, then, transfer to Xcanatun, one of the most beautiful haciendas of the Yucatan Peninsula, just 15 mins away from downtown and surrounded by a lot of vegetation. The Haciendas of Yucatan are part of the history of the peninsula. They are its soul. The families of conquerors reigned there. The base of Yucatan industry was born there, which is very related to the natural fiber production from the Henequen. Deserted for centuries many of the Haciendas were turned into hotels-boutiques offering a special atmosphere of the history and ethnography of the epoch. Fantastic designs, silence, calm and quietness, resemble a different time, a different world like no other. Every Hacienda offers its own special atmosphere; every Hacienda has its own history.
