Small-group day trip from Tulum to Chichén Itzá, Valladolid, and Cenote Xux-Há with guided history, included meals, and hotel pickup.
“Friendly and knowledgeable guide, good service, and great diverse tour of different places. Suitable for solo travellers.”
Small-group Tulum ruins, cenote cave swim, Yal Ku snorkeling, and beachside lunch from Playa del Carmen with pickup and gear included.
“Saul was an amazing guide for our group. Lots of fascinating information on Tulum. Kept us moving through the crowds at a good pace and has such a positive personality. The Cenote swim was really cool and our favorite part of this tour. Highly recommend.”
Tulum ruins, turtle snorkeling in Akumal Bay, and a freshwater cenote swim with tacos and hotel pickup for one smooth full day.
“You need to be able to swim and traverse the uneven paths. The ruins have many steps, some of it is ok for a scooter, but walking is involved. At the beach a boat will take you out to a destination and drop you off. A person SHOULD know how to swim even though life jackets are provided. You are not allowed to use fins/flippers. The swimming portion is a smaller group than other companies so you are able to enjoy seeing the turtles w/o fear of being kicked by others. The lunch is very good. It was fresh and delicious for our taste. Sophia and Edgar were excellent hosts.”
Sian Ka’an from Tulum: wildlife boat ride with snorkeling when seas allow, sandbank swim, and lunch in Punta Allen. Small group day trip.
“Highlights- Everyone was wonderful: the van driver, tour guides and boat driver. Tour guides were very knowledgeable and good at communicating what we were going to do and what was going to happen next. Loved the boat ride and seeing the vast expanse of water, mangroves and the peacefulness of it all. The boat driver spotted multiple crocodiles, dolphins, manatees. We stopped by an island to watch the frigate birds- very cool. Snorkeling at the reef was fast but good. We saw multiple turtles and a stingray. I would have like to have slowed down this part a bit to get gear situated a bit better and take a breath.…”
Zipline, rappel, and explore two cenotes in Tulum rainforest with taco lunch included. Optional ATV upgrade and small-group snorkel.
“Fun experience. The atv was the best part haha. The cenotes were very beautiful as well. Highly recommend.”
Tulum ruins, Muyil lagoon boat ride, and a Sian Ka’an lazy-river float from Tulum. Small group with pickup and tacos.
“It was a perfect tour, the river floating was ao relexful and unforgettable. Alonso our tour guide was just great; he explained a lot during the historical part and we enjoyed the time very, very much. Thank you for everything!”
Magical cenote cave swim plus Yal-Ku Lagoon snorkeling from the Mayan Riviera, with small-group guides, gear, snacks, and pickup.
“A trip for the history books with Diana guiding us and Lionel driving. Diana shared so much detail about the cenotes and their formation, all while keeping it light and fun. We had a marvelous time swimming and snorkeling with fish in the lagoon. The only feedback I have is that sunscreen was not allowed in the lagoon to protect the fish. If you are sensitive to the sun, bring a rash guard or long sleeve shirt to protect yourself.”
Private Tankah cenotes, zip-lines, canoe time, and a Mayan village lunch with hotel pickup and all activities included for $275.
“This is a beautiful tour and the cenotes and zip lines were great; our tour guide was wonderful. However, and no one is at fault for this, but the mosquitoes were unbearable- granted, it was following a rain and you can’t use bug repellent due to the cenotes, but we were getting swarmed with mosquitoes, which really tainted our experience. Again, no fault to anyone, but beware if you’re going when imthe forecast is a bit rainy and overcast. The lunch was just ok - grilled chicken, pork and rice, homemade tortillas and guacamole. All very good, but not consistent with the price tag of the trip.”
Riviera Maya day trip to Cobá and Chichén Itzá, with a cenote swim near Valladolid, early crowd-free ruins, and optional buffet lunch.
“our tour guide Marcela was very friendly and knowledgeable. Our driver Salvatore was also very friendly and got us to all of our destinations safely :) In comparison to the other tours that we did in Mexico this one is very good value for money and I would definitely recommend.”
A long, organized day from Cancun to Tulum and Coba with a cenote swim, Yucatan buffet lunch, and a short Playa del Carmen stop.
“Clean facilities, very informative and friendly tour guides. By the end of the trip, 58 with Zeferino became my Mayan forever family!”
Cook a 3-course Mexican meal in a Tulum home with tortilla-making, salsa, tacos al pastor, mezcal tasting, and a sweet finish.
“Amazing experience! Felt like cooking with family. Friendly, easy banter, very knowledgeable and of course a delicious end product. Would highly recommend”
Bike Coba ruins, hike Punta Laguna for monkeys, canoe, zipline, lunch with a Mayan family, and end in a cenote.
“Our tour guide Marco is really knowledgeable. He took a white board to draw things for us to illustrate his points which he really didn’t have to. He really makes this experience memorable! Our driver Antonio is nice and punctual too.”
Small-group 3 cenotes tour from Tulum: snorkel Casa and Taak Bi Ha, then explore Aktun Yax Kan cave, lunch included.
“Our trip to the 3 Cenote was magical! We really appreciated our guide Carlos who was very knowledgeable and passionate about the Cenote. It was awesome being able to see 3 totally different Cenote, one out of ground, the other a lot up underwater Cenote and the final a totally underground unlit Cenote. This was one of the coolest experiences I’ve ever had, nothing like it in Australia, an absolute MUST!”
Float ancient Mayan canals in Sian Ka’an, hunt for manatees and crocodiles, swim by Xlapak temple, and eat Mayan meals near Tulum.
“We had an amazing time during our tour in Sian Ka'an. We were picked up at our hotel and drove to the park with already a lot of laughs and hospitality from Jenny en George. We got a delicious traditional lunch when we got there after which we went into the park. Jenny knew everything about the history and the animals in the park and explained it with a lot passion. The lazy river and spotting crocodiles and manatees were the highlights of the tour. Exploring this park with a guide and no one else in sight was an experience never to forget. Thank you Jenny en George!”
Tulum ruins, underground cenote swimming, and Akumal sea turtle snorkeling with lunch at Punta Venado. Pickup and guide included.
“This was an amazing trip; well organized with an excellent tour guide who did all the activities with us. We loved covering all 3 experiences in one day. Only downside is that we were very hungry after 6 hours and felt that a snack after the 1st excursion (that we didn't like) wasn't enough; we would have preferred a sandwich and fruit after the 2nd excursion. Having lunch at the end of the day on the beach was welcomed and delicious!”
