The archaeological site of Muyil is located in the northern part of the Sian Ka'an Biosphere reserve. This ancient Mayan trading post is the perfect place to enjoy astounding Mayan temples such as the 17 meters (57 ft) building known as El Castillo in the incredibly diverse semi-deciduous forest of Sian Ka'an. From the archaeological site you will take an interpretive trail towards the tallest observation point of Sian Ka'an to admire the exuberant vegetation of the jungle and the fresh water wetlands. Once you reach the Muyil lagoon, you will take a boat across two lagoons connected by an artificial canal that has been in use for many centuries. Xlapak is the name of the building at the beginning of the lazy river and the start of an incredible floating experience in crystal clear pluvial water on its way to the Caribbean ocean. You will float for over 30 minutes surrounded by mangroves, orchids, bromeliads. A delicious vegetarian picnic with seasonal fruits is included in the tour.

We genuinely had an amazing time on this trip. The team that helped make their reservation were really accommodating and communicative. They made it really easy to organize the meeting location and let us know when they were out front. Iber and Jesus picked us up right on time and even came with a car seat for our nine month old. They were so helpful and accommodating, making sure that we made any necessary stops along the way. The tour was really interesting and, beautiful. The ruins were incredible and Iber knew a lot about the history and geography of the area. Once we had lunch organized, we came back after the ruins to an incredible Mayan lunch. As a vegan, they had options and it was one of the best meals on the trip. From there, we were able to float down the river in the reserve. It was really easy to do with the baby and very enjoyable. The water was warm and the area was gorgeous. I would strongly recommend this adventure. I think the price is a little steep, but it was as great as it could be.

Our family of five had a wonderful half-day tour of Muyil and Sian Ka'an in large part because of our extremely well-informed guide Leire who showed and shared a clear passion for both Mayan history/culture and wildlife in the bio-reserve. Her enthusiasm was infectious! The river float to end the day was especially memorable and relaxing. She and our driver were also very flexible when we had to switch up the timing on our return. Thanks so much for the great experience!

Sky was an excellent tour guide. The transportation was on time and we were made aware of in advance when pickup and drop off roughly was. The views and activities were great. It was a lovely half day adventure but was pricier compared to other tours that we have done in Mexico that travelled a longer distance. It was hard to see where the money went.
