Cancún rediscovered – El Meco, El Rey, San Miguelito & Museo Maya

Tour Details

Did you know there are 2 Maya archaeological sites right in the heart of the Cancún hotel zone?  The San Miguelito site is located adjacent to the Maya Museum, which holds permanent and temporary collections and exhibitions.  Ideal for a rainy day, if you’re looking for a couple of hours of shade or to get an introduction to the Maya history and culture. The El Rey site is a mere 5 minute drive away and is situated on the coastline of the Caribbean Sea.  

About a ½ hour drive from the hotelzone, right in front of Isla Mujeres (the Isle of Women), sits the El Meco site, which formed part of the Maya’s commerce routes.
