Tulum Day Tour with Archaeological Site Admission
Overview
Venture to Mexico's most photographed location, the picture-perfect Tulum Maya ruins perched on top of scenic seaside cliffs. Explore the ancient town's history and sights led by a professional, knowledgeable local guide, after which you get to sink your toes in the soft sand of the adjacent beach.
Next, continue to a mystical cenote, a freshwater cave pond that is so typical for the Yucatan peninsula. Equipped with a snorkel and a flashlight, discover the unique rock formations both above and underneath the surface. Take in the out-of-the-world views and snap some unique photos of the underground basin before returning to your hotel many memories richer.
