I very much appreciated the opportunity to be able to visit these sites. Being able to climb some of the restored pyramids was a treat and everything is well marked for review. I would recommend bug/mosquito spray, durable walking closed toe shoes (as a sandal wearer, I say this is a must), and patience for humidity. For those who know, yes, there are rest rooms and yes there are souvenirs.

Beautiful site with two pyramids temples that are nicely restored. Nice flat trail around the site made of limestone and can be accessed with a mobility device. The whole trail is approximately 3/4 of a mile. Lots of mature trees and palms providing plenty of shade. We saw several spider monkeys and a variety of birds during our visit. New visitor center and bathrooms. Food and gift stores at the front entrance. If you visit plan on spending about 30 to 45 minutes to see the whole place. Can be done faster if you’re on a hurry. One unique thing to note, we were told we can take photos but they request a $5 donation if we wanted to take videos.

We visited the Chacchoben Mayan Ruins on Tuesday, November 4, 2025. Our tour guide was really great and went into thorough detail describing their life and the village that once stood there. We got to walk around and climb a little bit and overall I really enjoyed Chacchoben and I have zero complaints about my experience. (Written 11-12-25)

I liked, but didn't love this place. For some reason (I don't know why) I thought the ruins/pyramids would be taller, more impressive. But it is a nice place to get some history. Just keep in mind that you can't get anything to eat or drink inside the park, and if you take anything in, you have to hold onto the bottle/container until you come back out. There are no trash cans inside. Also, if you have mobility problems, there are no paved walkways, so it can be a challenge.

Very cool historical site to check out not too far outside Costa Maya. Check out some Mayan ruins, see some monkeys, and some of the local jungle. Make sure to get here before the cruise ship tours for the best experience. Low crowds = plenty of uninterrupted pictures opportunities!
