A New Year Is Coming: 2025! New goals and 12 fresh wishes to fulfill… including the dream of exploring one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World: Chichen Itza.
Chichen Itza is not only recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site but has also become a favorite destination for both national and international tourists. Its breathtaking views, including the iconic Pyramid of Kukulcan, the Observatory, the Temple of the Warriors, and the renowned Ball Court, captivate visitors from all over the world.
New Year, New Discoveries, New Journeys… Welcome 2025 at Chichen Itza!
Among your 12 wishes for the year, visiting Chichen Itza—a significant Mayan city in the Yucatán Peninsula—should undoubtedly make the list.
The experience begins the moment you yearn to visit this historical wonder, but the true joy comes when that dream becomes a reality. Fortunately, there are several ways to explore the site, making it accessible and enjoyable for everyone.
Shared tours are a Classic Chichen Itza Tour option, offering a cost-effective way to visit Chichen Itza while traveling in a bus with other tourists. These tours typically start early in the morning, either from a designated meeting point or directly from your hotel, allowing you to make the most of your day.
With shared tours, the itinerary is pre-arranged by the tour operator. It often includes:
Private Chichen Itza Tour offers exclusivity, luxury, comfort, and, most importantly, privacy. These tours are designed solely for your group, ensuring you won’t share transportation or adhere to a fixed itinerary.
With private tours, you set your own schedule and choose the places you want to explore. It’s like having your private driver for the day, giving you ample time to immerse yourself in the majestic ruins of the archaeological site at your own pace.
For a more flexible experience, you can plan your visit independently by renting a car and driving from your resort to Chichen Itza.
This option allows you to choose your departure time, though you’ll need to account for travel distances. For example, the drive from Cancun to Chichen Itza takes about 2.5 hours. Don’t forget the time zone difference, as Yucatán operates one hour behind Cancun.
Chichen Itza is open year-round, but there’s something special about visiting on December 31, 2024, or January 1, 2025. Imagine ringing in the New Year at one of the New Seven Wonders of the World!
A bonus? These dates typically attract fewer tourists, making your experience even more unique and enjoyable.
Absolutely! Chichen Itza welcomes visitors every day of the year, from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
To fully enjoy your New Year’s visit, we recommend arriving early to explore the ancient city and its many wonders, including the Sacred Cenote. Keep in mind that the last entry is at 4:00 PM, so plan accordingly if you prefer a later visit.
Celebrate the arrival of 2025 by exploring the awe-inspiring ruins of Chichen Itza. Marvel at iconic structures like the Pyramid of Kukulcan, the Temple of the Warriors, The Observatory, and more alongside family and friends.
Unforgettably welcome the New Year and start 2025 with a sense of wonder and adventure.
Happy New Year 2025!
