Itinerary

Day 0- Nov 8th (-/-/d) Arrive in Mexico City

Depending on where you are flying from you might have to leave for Mexico on the 8th and stay overnight at our lovely B&B in Mexico City!

Day 1- Nov 9th (-/-/d) Arrive in Chetumal, Mexico

We meet in Chetumal, Mexico today! From there we begin our journey to our beautiful spa on Lake Bacalar. Arrive at the lovely Akal•Ki Holistic Spa for dinner and a restful night amongst the sounds of the lake lapping up against the shore by our comfortable cabanas. Overnight at Akal•Ki Holistic Spa.

Day 2- Nov 10th (b/l/d) Akal•Ki Holistic Spa

This morning we will gather and set our intent for our week together. Each day we will meet in the morning for some gentle yoga followed by our visit for the day. There will be time for beading every afternoon, working on our altars, sitting in circle together sharing, and learning tools for living more centered and positive lives. Overnight at Akal•Ki Holistic Spa.

Day 3- Nov 11th (b/l/d) Dzibanche & Kinichna

After a delicious fresh breakfast and yoga, we’ll visit Dzibanche & Kinichna; the Pyramid of the Sun. This was a major site containing many glyphs and beautiful temples. The Pyramid allows us views of the surrounding site and jungle. Free time for massages during the late afternoon after our session together. Overnight at Akal•Ki Holistic Spa.

Day 4- Nov 12th (b/l/d) Kohunlich

Today we spend the morning at Kohunlich with its enormous stucco masks representing the different ages of the sun. It is located in a lovely area of the forest and is rarely visited. By climbing up the tallest pyramids we can look over the jungle canopy and often see families of Howler & Spider Monkeys. After our visit we’ll stop for a drink at The Explorean Hotel – a beautiful place to simply be. Overnight at Akal•Ki Holistic Spa.

Day 5- Nov 13th (b/l/d) Chacchoben & Oxtankah

Today we explore Chacchoben the “Place of Red Corn.” It’s a small but lovely set of ruins perfect for exploration and ceremony. If we have time we’ll also stop at Oxtankah located on the shores of the Chetumal Bay, another beautiful site filled with Ceiba and Yaxche trees giving it the feeling of a park. Overnight at Akal•Ki Holistic Spa

Day 6- Nov 14th (b/l/d) Cenote

After breakfast we are off to a wonderful cenote for a surreal swim and ceremony. Cenotes are sink holes formed out of the limestone of the Yucatan and are filled with crystal clear water – simply beautiful! Then we have a chance to just relax at our resort, enjoy our beading, swim and take advantage of the wonderful spa services. Overnight at Akal•Ki Holistic Spa.

Day 7- Nov 15th (b/-/-) Home!

Today we leave the jungle and make our way back to the airport and get ready for our flights home. We say our last goodbyes, hugs and kisses as we prepare to take our new dream of heaven back to our lives.
