Visit Campeche Yucatan Peninsula - Campeche located in the Yucatan Peninsula, and is the least visited of the 3 Yucatan states. 40% of the state is covered in jungle. Campeche is great for adventure seekers, teachers, seniors and for travellers looking for unique experiences like archaeology, birdwatching and botany.
Campeche City is a historic fortified city and an UNESCO World Heritage Site; the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve, another UNESCO site, offers 1.5 million acres of wildlife-watching. There are Mayan archaeological treasures from all eras of the civilization, and with much less foot traffic than more well-known sites in Mexico, providing an unspoiled, less ‘touristy’ experience.
One will find restored haciendas, two Starwood “Luxury Collection” hotels (Puerta Campeche and Hacienda Uayamon), gourmet dining, the availability of world-class guayaberas (traditional shirts) and Panama-style hats, plus private escorted tours available in the city-state.
