Mayan Ruins

The Mayan ruins of Tulum, Chichen Itza, and Coba draw visitors from around the world annually. Tulum, the smallest of the three historical sites, is perched on a cliff overlooking the Caribbean sea. Chichen Itza, the largest, is 120 miles from Cancun and it’s Kukulkan Pyramid is now one of the new seven wonders of the world. Coba is one of the lesser-known sites in a jungle setting surrounded by two lagoons. There are 120 steps to the top of the main pyramid; which you can still climb but it is a steep trek.

Cenotes

The Riviera Maya is home to many cenotes, which are part of an underground river system. You can snorkel, scuba dive, swim, and even rappel down into some of the deeper cenote caverns. The La Ruta de Los Cenotes stretches from Tulum to just north of Playa del Carmen. Spend a day exploring some of the top cenotes in the area, and there are also resorts in the region that have a cenote on the premises.

Something very unexpected that no one imagined doing in Mexico; a camel safari. Enjoy a camel ride in the middle of the jungle of the Riviera Maya. A totally exotic and unique experience, ride through rainforests and gaze upon the beautiful beach of Maroma.

The Great Smoky Mountains National Park is a black bear habitat; chances are good that you’ll catch sight of these magnificent creatures when you visit. Our favorite is Grotto Falls. There is something very magical about standing behind a waterfall as it flows to the ground; this is the only waterfall in the Smokies where you can do this.

Get off the beaten path on one of Cades Cove’s numerous hiking trails. The journey along Abrams Creek is worth every step. It’s the most popular trail in Cades Cove. Plan to spend the day at Dollywood, play a round of mini-golf, or take some laps on a go-kart track. The activity options are many, and you can do as little or as much as you want.
