The tour continues to Valladolid, a historic town in the heart of Yucatán. Known as the "Capital of the Eastern Maya" due to its location, Valladolid is one of the oldest cities on the peninsula. After exploring the town, you'll dine at El Atrio restaurant, savouring traditional cuisine on a terrace overlooking the San Servacio Temple.
