At Foxiepass, we're passionate about showing you the very best this magical place has to offer. So, grab your sunhat and let's dive into some of the must-see spots you'll experience on our guided tours!

Step Back in Time at the Convent of San Bernardino de Siena

Picture this: you're standing in front of a massive, honey-colored stone building that's been around since the 16th century. The Convent of San Bernardino de Siena isn't just a pretty face – it's got stories to tell! Our guides will walk you through its fascinating history, from its days as a fortress against Maya rebellions to its current status as a cultural icon. Don't forget to check out the cenote in the convent's backyard – it's a hidden gem that'll take your breath away!

Take a Dip in the Breathtaking Cenote Zací

Speaking of cenotes, you can't visit Valladolid without taking a plunge into Cenote Zací. This natural wonder is right in the heart of town, and trust me, it's a sight to behold. As you descend the stone staircase, you'll feel like you're entering another world. The crystal-clear water is perfect for a refreshing swim, and if you're feeling brave, why not try jumping from one of the platforms? Just imagine the cool water enveloping you as you surface, surrounded by ancient rock formations and dangling vines. It's an experience you won't forget!

Stroll Through the Vibrant San Gervasio Church and Main Square

Ready for some people-watching and local flavor? The San Gervasio Church and the main square are where it's at! This isn't your average church visit – the unique design features two bell towers of different heights, giving it a quirky, charming appearance. Our guides will fill you in on the local legend behind this architectural oddity. Afterward, we'll hang out in the bustling main square, where you can soak up the atmosphere, grab a delicious marquesita (a local crispy crepe treat), and maybe even catch a free cultural performance if you're lucky!

Indulge Your Taste Buds at Casa de los Venados

Art lovers and foodies, rejoice! Casa de los Venados is a private home turned museum that houses the largest collection of Mexican folk art in private hands. But here's the kicker – on our tour, you'll not only feast your eyes on stunning artworks but also your taste buds on authentic Yucatecan cuisine. Imagine savoring cochinita pibil (slow-roasted pork) or papadzules (egg-filled tortillas with pumpkin seed sauce) while surrounded by vibrant colors and intricate craftsmanship. It's a sensory experience you won't find anywhere else!
