Explore Tulum ruins, swim through a Mayan cenote, snorkel Yal Ku Lagoon, and enjoy a beachside lunch on this full-day Riviera Maya tour.

“This excursion exceeded our expectations! It was well organized, the guides were great, and each experience was special in its own way. The trip was run by Cancun Adventures and our guides, Jessie and Julio, explained everything in great detail and with unexpected humor. We weren’t really sure what to expect with the cenote swimming, but it really was quite exhilarating and educational. The cenote we were in could definitely be considered a bit claustrophobic, so be aware of that. Special shout out to Jessie for paying special attention to my 74-year old mother-in-law and making sure she was comfortable and safe during the whole trip. Personally, I loved the…”

Review of Cancun Adventures’ Tulum tour with Mayan ruins, a cave cenote, Akumal turtles, lunch, transport, and practical tips.

“Wow! This experience was great. In our view, they have timed the length of each individual activity perfectly - you felt like you always had enough time on each activity without it being too much or too little. The guide David and driver were very friendly and knowledgeable. We were a couple and our 12 year old son. Plenty of cold water and snacks offered in the tour bus to keep you fed/hydrated. Tulum is interesting and the views over the sea are breathtaking. The cenote we visited was in a cave and you were swimming underground amongst staligtites and even some bats. It is very narrow in places and…”

I truly hope the owners appreciate what wonderful employees these guys are. These gentlemen are as this excursion was one of our favorite activities during our entire stay in Tulum. Alexander was such an impressive captain and the way he and Dedear interacted was truly impressive. These fine gentleman deserve a raise!!! We enjoyed how hard they worked for us and the history they provided.…”
