A trip with Tui

Following visiting Tulum and Coba, we went on a day excursion booked with Tui to Chichen Itza. Chichen Itza is a huge place and was really fascinating. We arrived very early and missed the majority of the crowds and vendors. We both really enjoyed being guided through the history of this archeological site which has really clear carvings of Mayan frescoes. We were given a small amount of time to explore by ourselves but for such a big site, I'd would have preferred to have had more free time for exploring but not everyone is into historical sites as much as us! The rest of the day was very hit and miss...our tour guide was a character and continued talking at us for the majority of the day whilst travelling on the bus! Initially it was interesting as he was talking about the history of the Mayans but his chatter continued and continued and after being collected at 6.20am I wanted some peace and quiet and not treated as if I was in school! On the second half of the day we travelled a further half hour to Hubiku Cenote. Here we were given lunch which was a self service buffet and in nicer surroundings than in previous trips we have completed. We were given the opportunity to taste tequila which we were both keen to try different flavours and have a refreshing dip. The centre however was busy with lots of day trips from the same company and you were given lots of opportunities by the employees to spend money with tips for dancers and buying tourists souvenirs. Lastly we were taken to the city of Valadolid and given 25 minutes to wander and explore! This seemed quite an interesting city and I'd have preferred a little longer to do further exploring!! Although I have negatives about the tour guide, him and his helper were very kind and ensured we all had enough food and drinks through out the day!! Overall I was disappointed with this tour and on reflection may have preferred visiting Chichen Itza with a smaller group or independently to be able to spend more time exploring this great wonder! And yes the vendors have spoilt the inside of the park but grin and bear it because it is worth it.

I am so happy I finally got a chance to go. Its gorgeous, so much history! It felt almost unreal, the architecture, the stories. This is something you have to do at least once in your life!

chichen itza tour tui

This was a very educational and enlightening day trip. I had never heard of Chichen Itza before and what I knew of the Mayans was embarrassingly small and very distorted. Francisco (Frank!), provided a very concise yet greatly educational history of the Mayans, their plight and Chichen Itza. The site, the small portion that we were able to see in the early access express tour was awe-inspiring! Francisco's knowledge and guidance made me feel as if I was actually in a bird's eye view hundreds of years ago.

We visited very early to avoid the large crowds and the heat. We arrived just before opening time which meant we were among the first to get in. We had a guide to tell us about the site and the history but there are many plaques around giving you info, in English and Spanish. El Castillo dominates the center of the site and looks amazing. There are many other parts to the site that look fantastic and are very interesting too. There are many many vendors on the site selling various goods, we found them to be cheaper than in cancun by s long way.

This site is SO impressive but it is really brought down by all the sellers surrounding it. Tulum ruins are much better and hassle free.

My parents gave me one day for tours with them. I knew I needed to take my family to both Chichen Itza and Tulum, but no tours did that. Then I saw Make Your Own Tour, so I did! I emailed Nefi and asked if he could squeeze both places into one day and he did, even added a cenote, Ik-Kil, which is close to Chichen Itza. Nefi was a terrific tour guide. He picked us up at our hotel and whisked us away on the long drive. We had the whole van to ourselves. He gave us some history and then let us ask questions and doze off on the early morning drive. We were able to stop for coffee and bathrooms when we needed it, and again doze off at will. He told us about the little towns we drove through and about the good deals we would find. When we arrived, we given freedom to wander and again use restrooms. While we did, he took care of tickets and everything we needed. We never stood in line. Nefi knew everything. He made us stop and check out vegetation, rocks, old barriers. He had a folder of information about counting and xrays of the building and, well, everything. We walked the entire grounds. He did the clap thing with my mom and daughter, he told us the history of every alter and statue. He took pictures and was patient. We walked the entire campus. He was incredibly knowledgeable about this World Wonder. He gave us shopping time. And yes, these were the best deals we found. Be prepared to bargain. I think everyone in our family would say that this was one of the favorite things we did on our trip, the nine year old to the 75 year old.

Nat Geo Day Tour: Exploring the Underworld and Mayan Culture

Nat Geo Day Tour: Exploring the Underworld and Mayan Culture

When you imagine the ancient Mayans peering into mysteriously deep and limpid underground pools, it's easy to see how they came to believe these cenotes were windows to the underworld. This National Geographic Day Tour is a journey into the deepest aspects of Mayan culture, bridging the gap between the tempting beauty of the cenotes the region is so famous for, and the significance they hold in local tradition. You'll begin the day with a descent into either Abuelo or Zoi Che cenote, where you can choose to enjoy a cooling dip. These water-filled caverns offer a tangible connection to the Mayan way of life. Your National Geographic-trained guide will explain how the fresh water of cenotes was crucial for the survival of Mayan settlements, especially given the scarcity of rivers and lakes in the Yucatan. As well as their spiritual status, the guide will also describe the Mayan concept of the underworld, or Xibalba, and it's nine layered structure which is reflected in many of Mexico's Mayan pyramids. Next, you'll take a guided stroll along the Mayan Path of Xibalba where thirteen representations of Mayan gods punctuate the route, and your guide will unravel their stories on the way. National Geographic guests will have private access to the park's recently discovered fifth cenote, steeped in the aura of the ancient world. After your exploration of the connection between cenotes and Mayan culture and beliefs, it's time to relax over a traditional homemade local lunch, a homage to the region's culinary heritage.

Start with a guided visit of the archaeological site of Tulum, then head to a cenote for a swim. Next, it's off to Akumal for a spot of snorkelling. Round off your day with lunch at a beach club. Carmen, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The most photographed structure in the archaeological site is the Castillo, which is perched on a cliff overlooking the Caribbean Sea. The Castillo might be the most famous, but there are plenty of other ancient Mayan ruins to explore, such as the Temple of the Descending God and the Temple of the Frescoes.'The marvels of the Mayan culture will be revealed on your guided tour around Tulum. You'll learn about it's past as a walled city, and its former role as a trading hub. After the tour you'll have free time to explore at your leisure. Next, prepare to be dazzled by colours at an ancient Mayan cenote, a natural cave with a freshwater pool fed by underground water sources and considered sacred by the Mayans.After a cooling swim, we'll head for the picturesque seaside community of Akumal, known for its laid-back atmosphere, natural beauty, and abundant marine life. With its intriguing underwater world, Akumal offers one of the best snorkelling experiences in the Riviera Maya. Encounter an array of tropical fish, corals, and perhaps even sea turtles. To complete your day, unwind and indulge in a tasty meal at a nearby beach club.

And of course, we wanted to do it in the most budget-friendly way possible, truly living up to our motto of   #SeeTheWorldSaveADollar

So here’s the deal, this article will ensure you’re fully prepared before you go to Chichen Itza on your own in 2024.

visiting chichen itza on your own

How much will it actually cost you? Are there any restrictions you need to know about?

And what are the absolute must-see spots during your self-guided tour of Chichen Itza ?

These burning questions are probably on your mind, and I’m here to share our recent first-hand experience and guide you through it all.

With the right preparation and a small dose of adventure, you’ll be well on your way to an unforgettable experience at this world wonder.

Continue reading for a complete guide on how to visit Chichen Itza on your own.

Key Takeaways :

  • Consider driving and factor in tolls and parking.

  • Dress in lightweight, sun-protective clothing.
  • Essential items: Bring cash, bug spray, and water.
  • Explore the temples, platforms, and cenote using this self-guided tour .

Where To Go to Visit Chichen Itza?

First things first, let’s talk about the logistics.

Chichen Itza is located in Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula, approximately 95 miles west of Tulum or 125 miles west of Cancun.

If you’re planning to drive to Chichen Itza yourself , it’s essential to factor in the cost of tolls . 

It’s important that you have Mexican pesos on hand to pay the toll when driving to Chichen Itza. 

During our visit, we made the mistake of not having enough Mexican pesos and found ourselves unable to pay with US dollars.

As a result, we had to pull over and search for someone to exchange our currency with.

Needless to say, it wasn’t the most ideal scenario.

To avoid any inconvenience, I highly recommend exchanging some currency for Mexican pesos before heading on this journey.

Do better than us!

visiting chichen itza

The amount you should set aside for roundtrip toll expenses typically falls within the range of 500 to 1000 Mexican pesos. 

That’s pretty broad, I know, but the exact toll fees depend on your starting location and the route you choose.

I recommend using Goole Maps to get a more accurate estimation of toll costs.

Simply input your destination and Google Maps will provide an estimate of the toll costs.

This will help you determine the exact amount you should carry for tolls.

visiting chichen itza on your own

You can also toggle on the “avoid tolls” option when using Google Maps. 

However, depending on your starting point, it may not always be possible to completely avoid toll roads.

Take this into consideration when planning your journey.

You’ll also need to budget 80 Mexican pesos for Chichen Itza parking. 

Once you’ve parked, get ready to explore! The Chichen Itza entrance fee is 614 Mexican pesos.

Keep in mind that the Chichen Itza ticket price may vary, so it’s always a good idea to double-check the official website before your visit.

US Dollars and other foreign currency are not accepted, so have Mexican pesos on hand. 

You can pay with a credit card but that is not always reliable and you’ll need to present identification with the credit card.

When To Go to Chichen Itza?

Timing is everything when it comes to visiting this UNESCO World Heritage Site .

To make the most of your experience and capture stunning photos without the crowds at Chichen Itza, it’s essential to arrive early.

Chichen Itza opens at 8 am and closes at 5 pm, but the last tickets are sold at 4 pm. 

Make it a priority to arrive before the tour buses roll in to have a more exclusive experience at this world wonder. 

The early wake-up call is definitely worth it. During our visit to the Chichen Itza ruins, we arrived at 9 am. 

We managed to beat the crowds and had the opportunity to explore Chichen Itza without the hordes of tourists.

visiting chichen itza on your own 2

As the late morning and afternoon rolled around, hundreds of visitors started flooding in. 

Having those precious moments of uninterrupted exploration in the early hours made all the difference.

So set that alarm clock, get there early, and enjoy Chichen Itza before the rush begins. 

Also, of note, every Sunday there is free admission for Mexican citizens and foreigners living in Mexico with proof of identification. 

What this means for you - Sundays are likely the most crowded in general.

It might be best to plan your visit to Chichen Itza on a different day of the week.

What To Wear to Chichen Itza?

As you plan your Chichen Itza adventure, keep in mind that it is located in an area with maximum exposure to sunlight. I’m talkin', no shade.

To protect yourself from the scorching sun, wear light-colored clothing that covers your skin. A wide-brimmed hat is a must-have accessory. 

The very first thing I bought when I pulled up to Chichen Itza was a hat for 200 Mexican pesos. 

visiting chichen itza on your own 3

You can either bring your own hat or buy one once you get there to ensure you have some shade during your exploration.

And don’t forget to wear comfortable shoes , as you’ll be doing quite a bit of walking. 

Since Chichen Itza experiences hot weather for most of the year (think 90F degrees hot), sunscreen is your best friend . 

Protect your beautiful skin from sunburns by applying a generous amount of sunscreen with a high SPF .

If you plan your visit to Chichen Itza during the cooler months of December and January, when temperatures can dip down into the 60s F, consider bringing an extra layer such as a poncho for added comfort.

Always check the weather forecast before your visit to ensure you dress appropriately.

What To Bring to Chichen Itza?

Now that you know what to wear, let’s discuss what essentials to bring along . Below we'll go through a quick travel checklist.

Make sure to bring enough cash with you.

You’ll find numerous vendors at Chichen Itza, and bargaining is a common practice.

If you’re eyeing a souvenir, be prepared to negotiate the price.

Vendors often sell similar items, so don’t hesitate to explore your options and find the best deal.

Remember to stick to the price you have in mind and remain consistent.

If you’re patient and persistent, you might end up with a great item at a fraction of the initial asking price. 

The initial asking price is significantly inflated, specifically targeting tourists like yourself.

When we were browsing for souvenirs, we found an item we really liked.

However, the seller initially quoted a price of $450 Mexican pesos, which was more than what we were willing to pay.

It was negotiation time. We managed to strike a deal and purchased the same item for just $50 Mexican pesos. 

This price was much closer to what a local would typically pay for the same item, and it felt like a fair transaction.

visiting chichen itza

You’d be surprised how much you can save by engaging in a friendly negotiation.

It’s a good way to strike a balance between budget-consciousness and supporting the local community. 

So don’t hesitate to haggle and find a price that works for both you and the vendor. It’s all part of the shopping experience at Chichen Itza.

2. BUG SPRAY

Chichen Itza is located in an area abundant with mosquitoes.

These pesky insects can quickly turn your visit into an itchy nightmare.

Arm yourself with insect repellent to keep the bugs at bay and ensure a more pleasant experience.

Hydration is key! The sun at noon shines directly overhead, intensifying the heat.

Stay hydrated throughout your adventure by carrying a water bottle with you.

It’s essential to drink plenty of fluids to avoid dehydration . 

Trust me, you don’t want to pass out in the middle of exploring this incredible ancient city.

The Temple of Kukulcan also known as the Castle (El Castilo) steals the spotlight at Chichen Itza. 

It’s the iconic pyramid that instantly captures your attention.

Prepare to be amazed by its intricate architecture and fascinating history.

This temple is a symmetrical masterpiece, featuring 91 steps on each of its four sides with one additional step at the very top.

That’s a total of 365 steps, representing every single day in the year.

But here’s the coolest part: when you clap your hands in front of the stairs, the sound of a sacred quetzal bird echoes through the air. 

Of course, Chichen Itza is not just about the Temple of Kukulcan.

You’ll come across several other temples, each with its unique charm and story. 

Here are some others that you don’t want to miss out on: 

  • Temple of the Tables (Templo de las Mesas)
  • Temple of the Beared Man (Templo del Hombre Barbudo)
  • Temple of the Warriors (Temple de los Guerreros)
  • The Nunnery (Las Monjas)
  • The Snail Observatory Temple (El Caracol)
  • Temple of Xtoloc (Temple de Xtoloc)
  • Thompson’s Temple (Palace of Ahau Balam Kauil)
  • Osario Pyramid (El Osario)

Every structure has its own tale to tell.

You can still catch snippets of their explanations and gain insights into the historical and cultural significance of each site by positioning yourself within earshot of the guided tours passing by.

Or, if snooping is not your thing, you could download a self guided audio tour for less than $10 USD.

By exploring Chichen Itza on your own, you can go at your own pace and delve into the details that captivate you the most.

Great Ball Court

My husband used to play basketball in college so one of the first things he wanted to check out at Chichen Itza was the great ball court (Gran Juego de Pelota). 

As we took a look around we learned more about the game.

This massive court was used for a unique Mesoamerican sport that resembles basketball.

Players were sacrificed through decapitation when they lost this game, and sometimes even if they won the game because it was considered an honor to be sacrificed.

I guess you could say “Ball was life.”

Chichen Itza boasts several remarkable platforms that are worth exploring.

Visit the Skull Platform (El Tzompantli, Plataforma de los Craneos) to witness a chilling display of skulls.

These skulls served as a warning to intruders, reminding them of the consequences of challenging Chichen Itza’s might.

Another impressive platform is the Platform of Eagles and Jaguars (Plataforma de Aguilas y Jaguares), adorned with intricate carvings depicting these majestic creatures.

Lastly, don’t forget to check out the Platform of Venus (Plataforma de Venus), which offers a glimpse into the celestial knowledge of the ancient Mayans.

Sacred Cenote

The Sacred Cenote (Cenote Sagrada) is a natural sinkhole of great importance to the Mayan civilization. 

While swimming is not allowed in this cenote, you can still admire its beauty and learn about its significance in the Mayan religious practices.

If you’re looking for a great cenote experience, check out Cenote Oxman which is not too far from Chichen Itza.

We took a 40-minute drive to Cenote Oxman in Valladolid after visiting Chichen Itza. It cost only 150 Mexican pesos to enter Cenote Oxman.

Marketplace

The Marketplace (El Mercado) is a vibrant hub that offers a wide array of traditional crafts, jewelry, textiles, and more.

Remember to negotiate prices and find that perfect memento to commemorate your adventure.

The Group of the Thousand Columns (grupo de las mil columnas) is right across from the marketplace. 

It’s a captivating sight to see and provides a glimpse into the architectural wonders of the ancient Mayans.
