Cook Tamales & Cenotes Adventure
Experience the heart and soul of the Yucatán on this immersive cultural and culinary journey to the town of Homun. After a scenic 1.5-hour drive, begin with a private introduction to daily life in this charming Mayan community. Then, join local cooks for a hands-on tamale-making experience, learning centuries-old techniques for preparing corn masa, flavorful fillings, and wrapping tamales in husks or banana leaves. While your tamale steams to perfection, explore two stunning cenotes—one an underground cave, the other an open-air natural pool—both offering crystal-clear waters ideal for a refreshing swim. After your swim, return for a delicious tamale lunch with one complimentary drink and a keepsake recipe to bring the flavors of the Yucatán home with you.
