The moment you arrive to the main entrance of Zamná Hacienda, you will get involved in the warm environment of a historic heritage that takes you to its times of glory. You will be surrounded by its huge sacred kapok trees, and you can walk around the gardens until arriving to the main building of the property, where hosts will be ready to tell you some stories and histories of the hacienda while you refresh with a delicious Yaxkukul horchata.

Once the tour around the house is over, you will get to the bullring palapa, where you can ride a horse, after signing a responsibility waiver. You will be trained with the basic rules to perform this activity. When you are ready, you will have a demonstration of how to ride a horse, guided by a horse rider, and then everyone will be assigned a horse.

You will practice for 15 minutes in the bullring so that you can then follow the tour along the henequen fields and the sheep livestock areas. In these two stops you will learn in a general way about the “green gold” sowing and the sheep breeding, you can even carry a little lamb. To finish, back in the bullring, you will enjoy a delicious Yucatecan snack at the palapa, and you can rest while enjoying nature.
