Overview

The Mayan Civilisation remains a vital part of Central America's heritage. To truly understand our identity, it is essential to explore its culture, daily life, sacred sites, traditions, and customs. At Joya de Cerén, you will discover the authentic life of Mayan commoners and farmers, gaining insight into their everyday world. Next, we visit Tazumal, a grand temple complex once used for important ceremonies.
To conclude our day, we will enjoy a delicious lunch at a recommended spot either overlooking the stunning panoramic lake or in the charming city of Santa Ana.
Join us and let the stories of our ancient cultures come alive!
