What are people saying about Tulum

Tulum Ruins, Turtles in Akumal and Cenote tour

Christine_B, Apr 2026

Excellent day!

Excellent experience! The guide was knowledgeable and fun! Everything was amazing… the turtles were the highlight! Highly recommended! I booked through Viatour which made it easy. Small group… didn’t feel rushed or crowded. Wear UV protected clothing as sunscreen is not allowed on the reef or Cenote.

Tulum and 2 Cenotes Half Day Tour from Riviera

Kyle_P, Apr 2026

Awesome tour guide, short trip overall

Overall, an awesome trip! Carlos Moo was a wonderful tour guide - very knowledgeable, easy to understand, has clearly been doing this a long time. The bus was clean and the whole operation was pretty smooth. Ekinox Tours did a great job! Your enjoyment will depend on what you are looking for in a tour. The whole thing felt a bit rushed (especially Tulum) but it had to, in order to fit within 7-8 hours. It’s the price you pay for a half day tour. If you want a more comprehensive tour, go for the 10-12 hour tours. They’re that long for a reason Also, your pickup time depends on your location. We got a WhatsApp text less than 24 hours in advance with our time. Would have been nice to know that info sooner, but that’s our only real complaint. Very enjoyable overall!

Best tour ever!!!

Our tour guides, Perfecto, and Estrella were amazing. This tour was VIP the whole time one of the best tours I took in Mexico, actually one of the best tours I took in my entire life. They went out of their way to make sure that everyone, including me, was happy, and the amount of extra goodies you get when you upgrade was totally worth it.

Ancient ruins and refreshing cenoté swim

Although a long day of approximately 16 hours, the experience and tour guide were well worth it! Comfortable bus with water, soft drinks and beer included at each stop. Knowledgeable tour guide Alejandro that took the time to give historical answers to all our questions. Tulum and Coba were Mayan ruins in two very different locations on windy coast and inner forest. The ability to walk up the steps of Coba was a-mazing! Local linch and Mayan blessing was a lovely addition for the day. The cenoté was very relaxing and refreshing in the beauty of being totally underground and only our tour at the location. The stop in Playa del Carmen was a bit too peopley for me but was a short stop and the sorbet was yummy. Highly recommend the tour and to bring supper snacks in your day bag.

Megan_M, Mar 2026

So neat!

We had Edar as our guide for this full day activity! Long but very fulfilling day! Loved that we saw the big site first and before the crowds were there. When we went to the cenote, our group had it to ourselves! So quiet and amazing to witness nature in its pure form. Final stop was a more residential mayan ruin....newer and less crowded! So neat that we were able to climb these ones! Powerful to have stood where ancients once did. This is a long day, but I believe very much worth it.

Enjoyable and great learning experience

Thoroughly enjoyed this tour! Our guide, Sergio as well as the coordinator Orlando and the driver were excellent, professional and polite. Sergio’s information regarding each stop was stellar. He did a great job as a tour guide through Chichen Itza. Thanks to all 3 for making this all day tour ( 12 hours) totally enjoyable and a great learning experience.

Small-Group 3 Cenotes Adventure Tour

Michael_R, Feb 2026

3 Cenote small group personal tour a must do

This was an awesome tour led by Jessica who was so informative and took our group to 3 different kinds of centers. We managed to get to each before the crowds arrived which helped this feel as a personal tour. Our family felt comfortable even through some have never experienced being in the water. From the open air, partially underground and then full cave walking tour this was the best time we spent in Tulum. The entire process from pickup to drop Off went perfectly and the lunch stop was a perfect break in the middle of our day. Strongly recommend this tour as you’ll likely never see anything like it again

Guided Tour to Chichén Itzá and Cenote and Valladolid with Lunch

JOE_L, Dec 2025

Amazing tour but the bus ride is a one star

The tour is a FULL DAY tour. Leave around 8:00 am and don’t come back until 10:00 pm. The tour itself was enjoyable but it could have been condensed for us….it was 2:00 pm and we visited the cinote and were just starting lunch (5 hours in). The sites were wonderful and the tour guides were very informative. Five stars for the team!!! I do have to give THE TOUR BUS a one star though. Very uncomfortable ride for the journey. If the person in front of you puts their chair back, you literally have two inches of room. There’s a cup holder on the left that grinds into your left thighs and a seat lever on the right side that grinds into your right side. Overall, the bus was terrible for a 2.5-3.0 one way journey. If you have bad knees, I’d suggest taking a smaller tour with better space inside the vehicle. lol. Sound like a silly complaint but it’s a long journey to have the guy in front of you with his seat tilted back in your lap, a cup holder grinding your left thighs and a seat lever grinding your right side.

Great excursion

It was a great experience! Something I’ll remember for a lifetime! You might think you don’t have enough time to enjoy everything but you do! It’s a great experience and honestly I would do it again! Definitely one for the books! Bring your own snack though but food was 1/5. Overall 10/10 experience though !

Tulum/Cenotes/Playa Del Carmen

This was an amazing experience we got to see the Tulum Ruins. Make sure to bring a hat, umbrella, fan. It gets hot. We went to two Cenotes that were beautiful. We also went to Playa del Carmen. You can eat and shop. Our tour guide Carlos is the best. He is of Mayan origin and knows the culture well. He is funny and friendly. Highly recommended this experience.
