Three new sections of the Maya Train, which is designed to connect travelers to sites and attractions throughout Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula, are on track for completion by the end of February, said Óscar David Lozano Águila, Maya Train’s general director.
“We are going to conclude in February 2024 these three sections that will allow us to see all the archaeological zones and all the tourist places that travelers will be able to discover through the Maya Train,” he said.
In all, the three sections will “cross 11 municipalities of Quintana Roo and Campeche,” and include routes from the Cancun Airport to Tulum, Tulum to the Chetumal Airport and the Chetumal Airport to Escárcega, Campeche,” Maya Train officials said.
“Once finished, those three train routes will pass through 12 archaeological sites that include El Meco, Tulum, Cobá, Muyil, Xel-Há, Paamul II, Dzibanché-Kinichná, Chacchoben, Oxtankah, Ichkabal, Kohunlich and Calakmul.”
The Maya Train’s first section – a route between Campeche and Cancun – debuted in December 2023.
