Discover the Maya Train
Mexico is about to experience one of the most significant tourism transformations with the arrival of the Maya Train, an ambitious project that is connecting some of the most impressive destinations in the southeast of the country.
This new railway system not only promises to make it easier to access the wonders of the Yucatán Peninsula but also to offer visitors a unique journey through the history, culture, and landscapes of the region.
What better way to enjoy this experience than by combining it with a luxury stay at one of our hotels in Cancún: Royal Solaris Cancún, GR Caribe by Solaris, or GR Solaris Cancún?
