Looking for the perfect day trip from Mérida? Join me as I explore Hacienda Sotuta de Peón — one of the last working henequén haciendas in the Yucatán.

This immersive experience takes you deep into the history of henequén (also known as “green gold”), once the economic backbone of the region. I’ll show you how agave is transformed into fiber using original machines, and explain the complex history behind the workers who powered this industry.

Then, we hop on a mule-drawn carriage (yes, really!) for a ride through the hacienda grounds — ending in a stunning, crystal-clear cenote for a refreshing swim. We wrap up the day with a traditional Yucatecan meal featuring local favorites like cochinita pibil, fresh tortillas, and handmade salsas.
