What to expect

One day, two of the Riviera Maya's most loved places: the ancient walled city of Tulum, perched on a cliff above the Caribbean, and Xel-Há, a natural park where fresh water from the jungle meets the sea. We pick you up at your hotel in Cancun or the Riviera Maya and handle the drive both ways.

Your morning starts at the archaeological site. A certified bilingual guide spends about 45 minutes walking you through how this Maya seaport worked and what landmarks like El Castillo and the temple dedicated to the Descending God meant to the people who built them. After that you get another 45 minutes to wander on your own and snap the classic shot of the ruins against turquoise water.

In the afternoon you trade history for water at Xel-Há. Grab fins, a mask and a life vest and snorkel the inlet as many times as you like, surrounded by colorful fish. Climb the Scenic Lighthouse for a view over the jungle and coastline, then slide back down into the water.

Food is taken care of too: snacks, a buffet lunch, soft drinks and a domestic open bar are all part of your day at the park.

It's a great pick if you only have one free day and want culture and nature in the same trip, whether you're traveling as a couple, with friends or with kids who love to swim. Book your spot and leave the logistics to us.

“This service surpassed everything! They were kind, and above all, I appreciated their punctuality; they were very helpful; I took their services to go from the airport to Playa Paraiso, and I even hired them again for my return. No doubt I will choose them again on my next trip.”
