Overview

This activity is unique, since topics are addressed from a local perspective, for example the time of construction of this city of Mérida, its origins as a Mayan city, which we will see reflected, through Mayan aesthetic stones in some buildings.

Likewise, we will talk about the culture and traditions of this city, as well as a wide variety of places to have fun and eat delicious food; from restaurants to famous taquerias in the historic center of this city.
On Sunday mornings, we will visit the most popular market in the city, the famous Lucas de Gálvez to see the colorful fresh fruits of the region.
