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.

“INDIA AT ITS MOST INCREDIBLE”
Unbelievably brilliant from start to finish. The Ultimate Travel Company gave us complete flexibility while tailoring the trip to our personal preferences. Communication was excellent throughout, and the in-country team in India was super-efficient at every stage. The quality of the experience was exceptional – and the value for money, remarkable. From expert naturalists to thrilling wildlife encounters (tigers, leopards, 140 species of birds), awe-inspiring temples, the Taj Mahal, scenic walks and warm, welcoming people – not to mention the fantastic curry – it was a truly superb holiday. “Ultimate” really is “The Ultimate Travel Company”!

“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.

“PROFESSIONAL, PERSONAL – AND A REAL PLEASURE”
From the moment we got in touch, everything felt smooth and well looked after. The team were not only professional and thorough – providing tailored suggestions with clear costings – but also genuinely friendly. Even after we returned, a follow-up email (and a bottle of wine!) showed just how thoughtful Ultimate Travel really is. Nothing was too much trouble. We already have more trips booked and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
