Visit the Mayan Forest for an Adventure Experience on The Riviera Maya

Mesoamerica's 35 million acres of Mayan Forest is the largest remaining tropical rainforest in the Americas after the Amazon rainforest. Expanding around Belize, Northern Guatemala, and the Mexican Yucatan Peninsula, the Maya Forest is home to endless numbers of rare and endangered wildlife species like the howler monkey, white-lipped peccary, scarlet macaw, tapir, harpy eagle, etc. You can even spot jaguar tracks on the floors of the forest.

In addition, the Mayan Forest tours introduce you to the spectacular harbor of over 400 bird species. Several millions of avian visitors flock in peak winter migratory months. The forest is also the home to vibrant yet ancient Mayan communities. Most Mayan locals continue practicing traditional farming techniques and steward the forest areas as they have done for generations.

If you love the incredible biodiversity of plant life, the Mayan Forest tours in Mexico will never disappoint you. This forest is well-known for the vast concentration of plant life and jungle areas that you  will enjoy venturing into the most. In addition, you will know the knowledge of the people living there and what each plant is used for, etc.

Just imagine people living in this forest area for hundreds of years. Their cumulative knowledge was passed on over generations which is incredible. Sometimes it doesn't seem very easy to visualize the regions looking like a jungle now, which were once the thriving cities of thousands of people. The area took thousands of years to return to its natural state, but you will find evidence of its last inhabitants.

The Mayan Forest is home to a large assortment of animal species that appeal to the attention of vacationers throughout the year. In addition, this forest is the home to the second largest barrier reef in the world. That makes it a perfect paradise for sub-aqua adventurers. You can enjoy diving and snorkeling right there and enjoy so many underwater activities  to spot the spectacular marine species in their natural habitat.

The tropical Mayan Forest protects the stunning Mayan cities and offers spectacular insight into the Mayan civilization. The area encompasses Tulum, Ichkabal, Coba, and Konhunlich – every sighting has unique characteristics that deserve exploring.
