Participants had the opportunity to tour six of the more than 200 caves in the municipality of Tekax, and they were also able to purchase packages to visit the Maxcanú and Chemax caverns, but in all cases the starting points is Tekax, which already has specialized guides.

The festival was officially presented at the Tekax Yucatecan Gastronomy Museum, where all the tourist options offered were in display. In addition to its architecture, Tekax has adventure, ecological and cultural tourism, featuring an attraction in which visitors can learn how the modern Maya communities live in the middle of the Yucatan most representative jungle.

In its territory Tekax has extraordinary caves, such as one where marine fossils that exist since the time of the ancient Mayans are protected, which preserved them intact because they considered that place sacred and mystical.
