22 Feb 2025

Accommodation

For both the 5 and the 8 days packages you must choose between a standard or a deluxe hotel for the 4 nights in Palenque, while the hotels for the nights in Mexico City and on the extension tour are set.

Hotel & room options

All package prices are per person and are based on two people sharing a room. If you are traveling with a companion and book together, you will automatically be put in the same room. If you book separately but would still like to share with a specific person, simply put the name and/or booking number of your companion in the ‘Comments’ section of your booking.

If you are a solo traveller and have chosen shared double room you will be paired with another traveller of the same gender in a room with two beds.

Any participants that wish to have a room for themselves can pay the single supplement fee in order to obtain a single room. 

Kindly note that we reserve the right to change hotels, but will only find alternatives of the same standard or better.
