After that, we will pop over to a visit a traditional mezcal distillery. We'll learn all about this energizing spirit before continuing our journey down to Tehuantepec for our overnight stop.

Canyons & Mountains Jumping on a boat, today we'll discover some of Mexico's natural beauty. Cruising through the Canyon of Sumidero we'll see cascading waterfalls, rich jungle, and cross our fingers in the hopes of spotting some monkeys and lurking crocodiles. Later we're heading up into the mountains for our next stop, the delightful colonial town of San Cristobal de las Casas. We will walk you around the charming town of San Cristobal with an optional pottery class for those wanting to show their artistic flare.

Paradise Awaits This morning, we're catching a ferry to Isla Holbox, aka paradise! Imagine sunny beaches, clear waters, lively marine life, and laid-back villages. We'll soak up the island vibe, eat some local food, watch the sunset, and groove to tropical tunes at a beach bar under the stars.

Isla Holbox Boat Tour Today, we're diving (literally) into the wonders of Isla Holbox with a boat tour. On the lookout for those Instagram-worthy pink flamingos, we'll visit secret island hideaways and explore a local cenote. The afternoon is yours to snag a hammock, perhaps finally read that book you've been lugging around. Sea, chill, repeat – it's the ultimate day to unwind and disconnect. Tonight we'll enjoy an included beach BBQ for dinner.

Playa del Carmen Today our Mexican escapade takes us back into the Yucatan. We'll settle into our last hotel in Playa del Carmen with ample time to soak up all the beaches, bars, and tacos this renowned hotspot has to offer. Anyone up for souvenir hunting?

We'll have the choice between checking out the archaeological Tulum Ruins, or hitting the crystal-clear waters of Tulum beach. Back in Playa, it's time for our final group dinner and drinks. Let's dig into some avocado, knock back a tequila shot (or two), and have a blast with our new friends.
