Tourist Center
If you want a real jungle experience, ask at the tourist center for Esteban Abán, the jewelry maker, who offers guided trips to Ox-Huadz, an unexcavated ruin. You’ll need to make arrangements at least a day in advance, depending on Abán’s availability, but the trip offers great bird-watching and Indiana Jones-style ruin-hunting.
