Immerse yourself in the unsuspected beauty of San Francisco de Campeche on the “La Joya Frente al Mar” city tour. This journey through time reveals a city unlike any other in Mexico, where history and legend are partners in crime. Vibrant colours, enticing aromas, and rich flavours transport you to a distant era, still present in every magical corner of this walled city.
Your adventure begins with a pickup from your hotel lobby. The tour kicks off with a visit to the Church of San Francisco de Asís, the oldest on the peninsula, followed by a panoramic tour along the scenic boardwalk with stops at key viewpoints and monuments. Explore the Reducto de San Miguel Museum of Mayan Archaeology, home to the famous Calakmul jade masks. Visit the Church of San Román, the city's most important church, known for its veneration of the Black Christ.
Next, enjoy a panoramic tour of the walled enclosure with stops at its main monuments. Then, embark on a pedestrian tour, visiting the Puerta de Mar, the main entrance to the walled city, the Main Park, Cultural Centre House 6—an excellent example of Campechana civil architecture—the Cathedral, tourist walkway Calle 59, and Puerta de Tierra. The tour concludes with a delicious meal in a typical restaurant.
