The Ruins at Chacchoben are something I have wanted to see since I was a kid. And it met my long term expectations! We booked the tour during our cruise and had a great experience. The drive is about 45 minutes from the cruise terminal and the site is really unique. Be sure to take the tour and not miss the unique history of the place.…

Cruise ship ports at 1:30 local time (12:30 ship time), and the park closes at 5 local time. So, the tour can easily be pressed for time, and ours was. The ruins were cool, and if you have someone in your party who is into it, then you will enjoy it.

First, know this is a long hike from the cruise ship. Second, it is well worth it. Our 7 and 14 year old loved this site and the preservation is amazing. This is really why you take an excursion off a cruise ship. To see something you would not ordinarily see, and do something different. A great way to spend time while at port in Costa Maya.…
