One of the experiences I really wanted to have when I visit the Quintana Roo state of Mexico, was to learn about, cook, and eat authentic ancient Mayan food. So we rented a van, and drove over to the small jungle Mayan village of Chunhuhub, to meet up with Kíichpam K'áax ( who are aiming to preserve their Mayan culture.
It was about a 3.5 hour drive to get to Chunhuhub from Playa Del Carmen, so by the time we arrived we were all pretty hungry. We walked through the milpa (Mesoamerican crop growing system), and finally to the kitchen within the jungle of the property.
They were already busy cooking, preparing a few traditional Mayan foods, like a variety of tamales and cochinita pibil. They prepared everything to be cooked in the pib, the ancient Mayan traditional way of cooking - an underground hot rock oven (there are many cultures around the world who have used or still use a similar underground cooking technique).
Tok-sel - One of the most fascinating dishes they cooked was white beans, and they took a hot rock out of the fire, stuck it into the pan with the beans, and roasted them with the rock. It was incredible to see, and the beans had an incredible ummai flavor to them. They were delicious especially when paired with freshly made corn tortillas.
Achiote (annatto) - An interesting ingredients, used commonly in Mayan food and cooking, is achiote, a pod filled with red / orange fruit. It has a slight pepper and lemony taste, and also makes everything that uses it, bright orange.
Cochinita pibil - One of the main ingredients in cochinita pibil is achiote. They had pre-marinated it, and it cooked underground as well. The flavor of the pork was amazing, and with tortillas, onions, and salsa, it was truly support.
We had a number of different tamales as well, all of which were totally different from any tamales I’ve ever had. They were hearty and packed full of corn and beans, and very filling. They were a little on the dry side, but I fully enjoyed learning about them, and watching them being made. The different leaves, including the hoja santa, was great to learn about.
Special thanks to Centro Ecoturistico Kíichpam K'áax ( for putting everything together. They have an eco lodge and offer various off the beaten path activities like this.

Inside a Mayan Village of Mexico ????????
In this video, I cross paths with a Mayan Village and I get to see and experience exactly how these people live on a day to day basis. These people utilize their jungle environment to the full extent by building their hut houses with the surrounding trees and leaves. The Mayans grow a wide variety of crops, including corn (maize), pumpkins, bananas, habanero’s, cilantro, etc, and have a natural water source. These Mayans also have handmade their own houses, clothes, hammocks, tortillas, bowls, etc.
Cooking In A Mayan House
- Kristine Ellingson learned cooking in a Mayan house during her marriage to a Mayan man and living in a Mayan village for over 20 years. In the video above, Kristine describes the traditional cooking hut used by her Mayan mother-in-law, Carmen, also explaining Carmen's method of cooking in a Mayan house.
In the video, you'll see the inside of the cooking hut, the fire that's kept burning all day long, the cooking pot where Carmen cooks her sauces, and the way she makes her tortillas.
In Kristine Ellingson's book, Tales from the Yucatan Jungle: Life in a Mayan Village, available from Amazon at (affiliate), Kristine tells her love story, how her chance meeting with a Mayan man while vacationing in Yucatan leads to their subsequent marriage. She also describes her adjustment to living in a Mayan village close to the Uxmal Mayan ruins and the intriguing, rich lives of her Mayan family and friends.
Timeline of the video above:
00:13 This is Carmen's cooking hut
00:18 the hub of activity during the day,
00:23 that fire is started.
00:29 it's a cooking pot - looks like a witch's brew.
00:42 tortillas are going to be made

Tulum, Quintana Roo, Mexico:
My wife Ying and I, and our baby Micah, traveled to Mexico with my friend Carlos and his family. I met Carlos many years ago in University in Phoenix, Arizona, and he’s originally from Sonora, in Northern Mexico. Throughout University, Carlos and I would eat Mexican food non-stop, and we dreamed of traveling in Mexico to experience more. Finally we made this trip happen!
We actually flew into Cancun, and then immediately drove down to Playa Del Carmen where we based ourselves. On our first day we decided to take a day trip to Tulum, a small town on the Riviera Maya coast, and one of the official historical port cities of the Maya.
Taquería Honorio - First things first, we started off with some breakfast tacos at a well known Mexican street food spot in Tulum. I had a mix of four different types of tacos, all of which were extraordinary, but probably the best was the lechon, the roast suckling pig. This is a must eat tacos restaurant when you’re in Tulum.
Price for my plate - 64 MXN ($3.45)
Ruins of Tulum - 70 MXN ($3.77) - One of the main attractions in Tulum are the ancient Mayan ruins. It’s a beautiful place, and what makes it so incredible are not only the ruins, but the fact that they are right up along the gorgeous turquoise Caribbean coast. It was great to walk around, even though it was packed with visitors.
Playa Paraiso - Next we drove over to Playa Paraiso, just down the beach from the Ruins of Tulum, which crystal sparkling water.
Chamico’s - By lunchtime we were all very hungry, so we drove over to a place called Chamico’s a spot I had searched out on Google maps. Just from the photos it looked like a place I needed to go, from the relaxing atmosphere to the amazing fresh seafood. It was just as good as I had imagined. The restaurant was right along the beach, breezy, and the Mexican food was amazing. We had a few plates of ceviche, fried fish, and a shrimp cocktail.
Total price (for 4) - 1,180 MXN ($63.53)
Tulum, Mexico, is a true beach paradise, and it’s an amazing place to visit in Mexico. Thank you for watching!

Mayan STREET FOOD & Artisanal Guatemalan MARKET | Chichicastenango, Guatemala
???? MARIEL:
???? WATCH: Guatemala Street Food
???? DAVID’S BEEN HERE SHIRTS & MERCH:
On my fourth day in Guatemala in partnership with the Real Intercontinental Guatemala we explored Chichicastenango the most famous Maya market town in the country!
We started the day at 5:30am and drove three hours west to Chichicastenango. Are first stop in Chichicastenango was the arch of Gucumatz. This is the entrance to the city and also in the Maya religion to the under world!
We then walk through the whole city and I tried fresh orange juice, pupusas and home made ice cream. Everything was so good! From their we made are way to the Maya cemetery via the poultry market.
After exploring the maya cemetery we went all out shopping. I bought a ton of wood carved mask, Mariel bought some clothing and I bought a table runner for my wife.
We then visited Santo Tomas Church which is the most iconic spot in the city. It's famous because this church is a unified church between Catholicism and the Maya religion.
Next up we went to lunch at the Maya Inn hotel. He we tried some Culche and some Pepian de Pollo which is a traditional dish in Chichicastenango.
After exploring the whole town we drove back to Guatemala city and on the way we stopped at Iximche. This Maya archeological site is one of the most important because this is where the Spanish took country of the country.
Next time you head to Guatemala I recommend working with my friends at A La Carta Tours:

MAYAN HOUSE - MEXICO
ONE OF THE MOST INTERESTING THINGS ABOUT VISITING YUCATAN PENINSULA IS GOING TO A TRADITIONAL MAYAN HOUSE. WE NOTICED THAT ALL MAYAN FAMILY MEMBERS LIVE IN THE SAME HOME. THEY SLEEP IN THE SAME PLACE AND THE COOKING AREA IS USUALLY LOCATED OUTSIDE THE HOME. TRADITIONAL MAYAN HOME COMPRISES OF A SIZABLE PIECE OF LAND. WOMEN FORM AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE MAYAN FAMILY. THEY ARE TASKED WITH TAKING CARE OF THE HOUSEHOLD, LOOKING AFTER THE UPBRINGING OF THE CHILDREN AND ALSO WORKING ON THE KITCHEN AND GARDEN. MAYAN MEN ARE IN CHARGE WITH PROVIDING THE LIVEHOOD OF THE HOME AND TO MAKE SURE THAT THE FOOD IS PROVIDED AND OTHER NEEDS OF HIS FAMILY ARE MET. VISITING A MAYAN HOUSE WAS A VERY INTERESTING, UNIQUE AND INFORMATIVE EXPERIENCE, WHICH ALLOWED US TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THIS TYPE OF LIVING IN MEXICO.

Oaxacan Mole Negro - THE MOST MYSTERIOUS Mexican Food in Oaxaca Village, Mexico!
Mole negro is one of the most amazing Mexican foods!
►SUBSCRIBE for 2 new videos per week:
►T-shirts available now:
Cooking Oaxacan mole negro from scratch was one of the best food and cultural experiences I’ve ever had. On top of that, we didn’t really know what we were going to do when we set off in the morning… but things worked out for the best. Thank you to Javier and his family for inviting us into their home to cook amazing Oaxacan food!
So in the morning the plan was
Rent a van for the day
Drive to a village
Find a market
Ask a nice Grandmother or Aunty to cook us some authentic Oaxacan mole negro
Now, mole negro is one of the most complex and mysterious of all the Oaxacan Mexican food dishes. There’s such a huge mix of random ingredients in the dish, and no one knows for sure how it was invented or how it came about - there are only legends.
After renting a van for the day, our driver Javier came to pick us up and we started talking with him to see if he knew anyone that would make us Oaxacan mole negro from scratch. He called his Mom, and she agreed!
We picked up Mom in a place called Tlacolula de Matamoros, and we went straight to the market to buy all the ingredients for mole negro. Tlacolula de Matamoros is a predominantly Zapotec town, an Indigenous pre-Columbian civilization from the Valley of Oaxaca
We got back to the house and started preparing all the ingredients. Let me tell you, mole negro has to be one of the most complex and mysterious of all Mexican food. It includes so many random and seemingly odd ingredients. It was a lot of fun to learn how to make it.
The end result of the Oaxacan mole negro, was supreme. The sauce was so rich, chocolatey, and you could taste all the random ingredients in it - the nuts and dried fruit. It’s deliciously complex.
Mole was amazing, and having the chance to hang out in a traditional Oaxacan village to cook was priceless.

Unbelievable Mexican Food - FIRE GRILLED MEAT + Cenote and Chichen Itza in Yucatán, Mexico!
Join us on this amazing Mexican food road trip through Yucatan, Mexico!
►SUBSCRIBE for 2 new videos per week:
►T-shirts available now:
We started off in the morning in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico, and the plan was to drive all the way to Merida, the capital of Yucatan state. But on the way, we’d stop off to eat some amazing Mexican food, and also visit some attractions in Yucatan like a cenote and Chichen Itza. It turned out to be one of the most amazing days of my Mexico trip - here’s everything we did and ate.
Tacos De Cecina Estilo Yecaixtla - Before leaving Playa Del Carmen, we desperately needed some taco nourishment, and so we stopped at Tacos De Cecina Estilo Yecaixtla, a street food stall that’s known for their beef tacos. I tried a few of their tacos, all of which were outstanding, and overflowing with meat!
Price - 74 MXN ($3.97) for my plate
Cenote X'canché - We drove towards Valladolid, and not too far from there is a cenote known as Cenote X'canché. The hard thing about Yucatan and visiting a cenote is that there are so many to choose from, but since we had a car, I wanted to go to one that was a little more off the beaten path and quiet. It proved to be an amazing experience, so quiet and peaceful.
Entrance - 50 MXN ($2.69), Bicycle ride - 100 MXN ($5.37) per person
La Tía de Kaua - There’s a Mexican food Yucatan dish known as poc chuc, that’s one of the ultimate dishes from the region - usually made of pork marinated and grilled or cooked over a hot fire griddle. In the sleepy town of Kaua, we stopped at La Tía de Kaua for some incredible poc chuc and freshly ground habanero tomato salsa. It was such an insanely delicious meal.
Total price - 300 MXN ($16.11) for 4 adults
Chichén Itzá - Finally, to wrap of the day of Mexican food and attractions in Yucatan, we drove to Chichen Itza. It’s one of the most visited attractions in Mexico and it’s an amazing sight to see. We arrived in the late afternoon, and luckily it wasn’t too busy.
Entrance price - 242 MXN ($13) per person
Mérida - Finally we arrived to Merida at night. Stay tuned for the next Merida street food tour!

EATING WITH MAYANS outside Cancun, Mexico ???????? Authentic Mexican Food (Cochinita Pibil)
❤️ Travel Deeper Merch ($20 Tees):
???? WATCH NEXT: Best Cancun Tacos:
???? PLEASE SUBSCRIBE:
Cancun, Mexico - One of the best things to do in Cancun is to break away from the all-inclusive resorts and learn more about the rich history of this incredible region of Mexico.
The Maya Civilization was one of the most dominant Indigenous Societies of ancient Mesoamerica. Their empire covered much of Guatemala, Belize, Honduras, El Salvador, with a strong concentration here in the Yucatan Peninsula of Southern Mexico.
Today, the goal is to spend the day with one Mayan family, who live deep within a forgotten corner of this modern world.
We learn how to cook Cochinita Pibil, make the most amazing tortillas, and even enjoy a swim in a local Maya Center. This was honestly the best Mexican food I've ever had.
It was an amazing day tour outside the city, and most definitely one of the best things to do in Cancun, Mexico.

How Maya Indians Used to Cook
The Maya Indians used to cook a lot of their food underground. As we walked past the home of the Perez Osalde family in the village of Tinun, Campeche, Mexico, they invited us in to see how it is still being done today.

MAYAN PYRAMIDS Of Chichen Itza | TRADITIONAL Mayan FOOD | Mexico Travel Vlog
We thought it would be smart to stay locally to Chichen Itza so we could be there right as it opened. We were there within the first half hour and already there were dozens of tour buses and hundreds of tourists. Despite the tourists, we understood what all the hype was about because it was WONDERFUL to see Chichen Itza live -- totally worth the money.
After a warm morning, we decided to stop at another Yucatan Cenote on our way to Merida. Cenote Chihuan was incredible and if you ever get a chance to drive to Merida, make sure to take a quick dip in this underground cave cenote.
We arrived in Merida with empty bellies and excited spirits. So, we decided to go try traditional Mayan food to break us into the Merida food scene. Hope you enjoyed our video!
