Due to the pandemic, we haven’t been able to travel abroad for 2 years, so instead we made a video of a previous bike tour in Mexico!

Here are 7 Tips for a successful bikepacking trip through The Yucatan, Mexico.
-
We love exploring ruins, so we made sure to check out the Maya archeological sites on our cycle route from Mérida to Tulum. Here they are in order from west to east…
-
We rated the cities we cycled through in The Yucatan, Mexico based on sights to see, affordability, food and accommodations.
-
As we cycled closer to the more touristy area of the Yucatan Peninsula (the east coast), the roads became bigger and busier. We couldn’t take quiet state roads anymore; it was time to hit the highway!
-
We took a day off from cycling to explore the Maya ruins of Chichen Itza.
-
After walking around Izamal to see the Convento and the Kinich-Kakmó pyramid, we cycled the scenic route to Chichen Itzá… which dead-ended at a goat path with actual goats.
-
We left Merida for Izamal and took a scenic detour to the Aké ruins – which turned out to be one of the best and worst parts of this ride!
-
We were in Mérida, Mexico on a Sunday, so of course we had to go to Biciruta Mérida! aka Car-Free Sunday.
-
We cycled from Merida to the Maya ruins of Dzibilchaltún, stopping halfway to check out the Gran Museo del Mundo Maya.
