Explore history on the Chichen Itza Mayan Ruins Tour!
On this special tour, you are led by a premium LDS guide who takes you to all the corners of the incredible Chichen Itza ruins. Stand in front of the Temple of Kukulcan, get your selfies, and enjoy a delightful archeological explanation that brings the ball court, the astronomical observatory, the nunnery, the steam baths, the military headquarters, and the great Maya market back to life!
Our tours to Chichen Itza offer a casual stop along the road to get to know the town of Yucatek, have lunch at a beautiful little thatched-roof locale to taste delicious beans, the native dish poc-chuc (grilled and marinated pork meat), handmade corn tortillas, pork baked underground wrapped in banana leaves, Yucatek soda or natural juice, and many more delicious dishes made by a Maya cook.

There is a fantastic site in the jungle of the Yucatan Peninsula that has amazing cenotes, and we take you to the five-star cenote Palomitas. At first sight, it’s just a simple entry to a rock cave, but once you enter, you’re in front of one of the most magnificent natural landscapes of the Maya world, a dazzling wonder of the nature that embraces you with its beautiful crystal waters.

All of that and many more experiences await for you on our Chichen Itza Explorer day tour.

Dear friends, Brethren, Family.

Today, I want to share an important decision I’ve made regarding the publication of my book. After 15 years of hard work, dedication, and a passion for writing, And in an effort to capitalize in order to deliver high-quality printed versions, I have decided to distribute my work for now, independently.

Throughout my journey, I have had the opportunity to learn and grow, but I have also witnessed how publishers and platforms impose restrictions, prices and incredible fees on our work, undervaluing the effort and creativity that each author puts into their works. After reflecting on this, I realized that my story, my voice, and my hard work deserve to be valued in a way that is fair and authentic.

By choosing self-publishing, I have complete control over my work—not just its content, but also how it is presented and the price assigned to it. I firmly believe in the importance of fair recognition for an author’s work, and I am excited to share my book directly with all of you, my true readers.

Thank you for your unwavering support over the years. I hope you enjoy this work that is just the first delivery of more yet to come.

If you’d like your PDF Copy and be among the very first ones to obtain it please send me DM or just tap on this Venmo link $21
And you’ll get to your email.

Printed versions should be available in October 2024

A little Over 20 years ago I received the greatest Tender mercy ever from part of my Heavenly Father, just minutes after I promised that if he would intervene in the situation I was going through, then I would teach to everyone the gospel and tell to everybody about the Book of Mormon for the rest of my life.
I never imagined that my main job would be teaching the scriptures and my culture at the same time but ever since then I’ve procured to be myself a connection, a bridge and a link between our faith and the works of our ancestors.

That is why, loyal to my promise 20 years ago, I have decided to open new routes from which we can explore the ancient Mayan ruins and bring to life the stories of the Book of Mormon through the multiple stone testimonies that flood the yucatan peninsula. Stay tuned and don’t miss the posts in which I will be informing you about all our new tours and destinations!

Thanks for always being there!

Fortune Teller’s Pyramid
This is the tallest building on the site and in the Puuc region, it is 32 meters high.
The pyramid is also called “The Sorcerer” or “The Dwarf”, which was given due to a story known as “The Legend of the Dwarf of Uxmal”. This construction has a symbolic meaning, since it represents the thirteen levels that the Mayans considered the sky to have.

Contemporary to major Book Of Mormon Events Dzibilchaltun was inhabited from 500 BC until the Spanish conquest in approximately 1540 AD. It has an area of ​​19 square kilometers, with approximately 8,400 structures in the round enclave. It is possible that it had a population of 40,000 inhabitants, which makes it one of the largest cities in Mesoamerica.

The Temple of the Seven Dolls

The Temple of the Seven Dolls is in the Mayan archaeological site of Dzibilchaltún, 16 km north of Mérida. Dzibilchaltún means “the place where there is writing on the flat stones”, which refers to the many memorial stones found

The Temple of the Seven Dolls is also known as the Temple of the Sun, a square structure that was the focal point of the city. This second name may originate from the phenomenon that occurs twice a year, at the spring and autumn equinoxes, when the rising sun is visible through one window and rises from another, a tribute to the incredible mathematical knowledge of the Mayans. The temple is connected to the rest of the site by a sacbé, or “white path,” so named because they were originally covered in white limestone rock, built on top of stones and rubble like in 3rd Nephi.

The best-known name, Temple of the Seven Dolls, comes from the seven small rough effigy dolls found inside the temple. The one-story square building has a central room surrounded by a hallway. There are four entrances with windows next to each one, facing west and east. It may have been used as an astronomical observatory.
