Ek Balam: Self-Guided Tour with Audio Narration & Map
Overview
Ek Balam is the incredible site where ancient Mayans kept the tombs of their kings.

Visit the awe-inspiring Ek Balam pyramid, learn about the Mayan civilization’s rise and fall, and uncover the significance behind the site’s ancient artwork. Even better, you’ll do all this completely on your own schedule, without the hassle of a tour group!
