CHAN CHICH LODGE, GALLON JUG

EXPLORE MAYAN ARCHAEOLOGY

Set on the site of an actual Mayan plaza, this eco-hotel does not scrimp on luxury. The lush, surrounding jungle and the abundance of ancient Mayan architecture make the Chan Chich Lodge the perfect place to explore.

It is an eco-dream come true. You could stay in a thatched-roof cabana on the actual site of a Mayan plaza, surrounded by over 130,000 acres of unspoiled, private nature reserve.

You can walk through mile after mile of deep jungle trails, looking out for exotic birds, canopy creatures, monkeys and the highly elusive jaguar. You can explore Mayan archaeology, visit farms and coffee plantations, discover the wetland habitat of Laguna Seca – home to spider monkeys – or take part in night excursions to see the jungle from a different perspective.

Come to Chan Chich Lodge – leave with memories that will stay with you for the rest of your life.

“FAULTLESS AND FUN”
We’ve just returned from a Danube cruise with Douglas Skeggs and Joanna Worsley, with a few days in Vienna beforehand – all brilliantly overseen by Emily. From meet and greet at the airport to every detail on board the Amadeus Cara, the organisation was seamless. We’re already looking forward to our next Escorted Tour with The Ultimate Travel Company.

“THREE HOLIDAYS IN AND STILL HIGHLY RECOMMEDED”
Dan Mills organised perfectly a challenging itinerary to incorporate a wedding we were attending in Kathmandu. A fantastic balance of trekking, rafting, safari, sightseeing and R&R. This was our third holiday with Ultimate Travel and we cannot recommend highly enough

“MONGOLIA STOLE MY HEART – A JOURNEY I’ll NEVER FORGET”
It was one of the best trips of my life. The itinerary you crafted for us was absolutely perfect; I wouldn’t have changed a thing. What made it even more special was the incredible team who looked after us. Edda was fantastic, and the two drivers we had for the Orkhon Valley and Gobi sections of the trip were possibly the best I’ve ever had.
