Last April, Alea Tulum had the pleasure of hosting 11 national media, which were provided with a complete experience, both in terms of lodging, gastronomy and destination activities.
With the valuable support of important commercial partners such as Volaris, Tukankin, Tulum
Diving Travel, and Quique Tours, Alea Tulum gave these media 4 incredible days. As the flight was very early, they were welcomed with an energizing Mexican breakfast of mole chilaquiles with barbecue, followed by a relaxing massage on the dock and a beautiful Mayan ceremony at sunset.
This first day closed with an interesting mezcal tasting offered by Encuentro, artisanal mezcal and a delicious dinner with live music at Alea´s sister neighboring restaurant Umbal at Nerea Tulum.
During the second day, Caballito Tours sponsored a gorgeous tour to two cenotes in Coba and a Mayan Community, where the press had their lunch and visited the melipona bee hatchery; as a curious fact, these bees are small, non-aggressive and stingless, their honey is medicinal and delicious.
At the Mayan community, Xunaán Kab, they learned the process of making tortillas and tasted the traditional “poc-chuc”, cooked pork with salad and rice, served with beans, fresh hand-made tortillas and hibiscus water. They also have a temazcal and a refreshing pool.
