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.

“SEAMLESSLY ORGANISED, TRULY UNFORGETTABLE”
The itinerary was spot on. Claire really listened and understood the kind of holiday I wanted – from the hotels to the pace of the trip. The team on the ground were exceptional: friendly, efficient, and always one step ahead, helping with everything from flight check-ins to tax-free procedures at the end. The guides were knowledgeable and genuinely helpful. I had an amazing time. Thank you!

“IN SAFE HANDS, EVEN WHEN PLANS CHANGE”
Every detail of our Patagonia tour was expertly arranged – from transfers and flights to the choice of hotels. When our onward flight to the Falklands was delayed by two days, The Ultimate Travel Company stepped in immediately and secured a hotel for us. It was an enormous relief, especially as we don’t speak Spanish and had no idea what to do next. That level of thoughtful, responsive service stayed with us – it turned a potential travel hiccup into a lasting positive memory.

I’ve trusted The Ultimate Travel Company with my holidays for many years, and they’ve never let me down. The team are friendly, patient and truly know their subject. My recent two-week trip to Croatia was just as seamless as always, with well-planned travel and excellent hotels throughout.
