The Native Choice

The Native Choice is a tour operator that organizes excursions and tours on the Costa Maya, more specifically in Majahual.

On the one hand, we offer you immersion experiences and interaction with the Mayan culture and the vestiges that still remain of this pre-Hispanic civilization. To do this, we have the collaboration of local indigenous communities.

Our team of professionals will take you to know:

- Archaeological zones: Chacchoben, Dzinbanche and Kohunlich. We have several types of excursions in which you visit a single area of ruins, or that combine 2 areas so you can see more in a single day.

- Mayan Ball Game: We have a representation that recreates this ancient tradition of the ancient Mayans in an elaborate staging.

- Kayak tours: We take you kayaking in the Bacalar Lagoon with 2 different types of tours where you can also mix this extreme sport with visits to archaeological sites.

At The Native Choice we want to give you a very real experience, as if you were transported back in time, that is why you will meet authentic Mayan descendants, live with them.

At The Native Choice we care about providing you with a differentiated service, which is why we offer you original and differentiated experiences. We recreate history through interaction with indigenous Mayan communities that still maintain their traditions and culture despite the passage of time.

Within our excursion and guided tour services, at The Native Choice we offer you, on the one hand, tours of the Mayan Ruins:

- Chacchoben archaeological zone: This is a 2-hour visit to one of the most visited Mayan cities on the Mayan coast. We are going to climb to the "Great Basement", the ceremonial center of the Mayan population.

- Dzinbanche: It is one of the largest and best preserved cities. Its pyramids are intact and are impressive works of architecture.

- Kohunlich: We are going to go up to the temple of the Sun God, one of the most spectacular in the region.

- Kohunlich – Dzinbanche: This is a combined tour that visits the 2 most important cities of the Costa Maya to take advantage of the time.

We also have cultural tours:

- Mayan Experience: In addition to visiting the archaeological zone of Chacchoben, we are going to go to the town where Mayan communities still exist. We are going to learn about the traditions of the ancient Mayans by trying their food, interacting with them in their homes and learning about their celebrations.

- Ball game: This is one of the most famous Mayan traditions and now we share with you in an excellent representation. We take care of every detail of the recreation to be as faithful as possible.

Don't know the story, live it with The Native Choice.

The Native Choice is a tour operator that organizes "alternative" excursions on the Costa Maya to better understand the culture and traditions of the ancient pre-Hispanic civilizations.

To make the history of the region known, we organize interaction tours with Mayan communities. However, as we know that our visitors also like extreme emotions, we organize kayak adventure tours.

Our specialized guides offer you the following tours:

- Chacchoben Extreme Tour: First we are going to take a guided tour of the ruins of Chacchoben. Afterwards, we will kayak through the Seven Colors Lagoon which is located within the Sian Kan Biosphere Reserve.

- Adventure through the Blue Lagoon: We are going to row through the Bacalar lagoon where you can also swim.
