Fantastic private tour of hidden gem cenotes
A perfect visit to cenotes that are off the beaten path and absolutely gorgeous. We had both sites to ourselves for a good portion of our tour. Juan was such a lovely guide—so knowledgeable about every aspect of what we were seeing. Having someone who understood the history of the place as well as the environment and ecology added so much to the visit…not to mention flawless English and great junky snacks that we just can’t get in the States :). Pro-tip: recommend you accept the shortie wetsuit if you tend to get cold while snorkeling. Highly recommend!!

Trip of a Lifetime
Absolutely the most incredible tour with multiple awesome experiences. Coba ruins are awesome, you can climb one of the temples, but there's practically a whole city there to explore, and it's quiet, shady, very nice. We got to bike in there,too which was a surprise but definitely beat walking! We got a welcoming blessing ceremony by a Mayan elder and then to see wild spider and howler monkeys up close which was incredible and then zip lined and canoed across a beautiful lake. Then we swam in an incredible cenote which was beautiful and mysterious and only the few of us on the tour. Finally we had lunch with Mayan household that also runs a wildlife sanctuary where they show you the animals (and can even pet a few, my daughter was totally smitten with the faun, of course. And our guide, Santiago was totally chill and very knowledgeable and able to help people in 5 different languages, perhaps overqualified for the job,but we were really grateful for him. They managed to pick us up from the hotel in PDC and drop us at the ferry for our next leg. All in all worth every cent, an unforgettable trip!

Tulum ruins private tour
The tour operator Eli was great. Communication was on WhatsApp. Eli gave me a picture of his vehicle which was helpful. He was casual,very friendly, and knowledgeable. His personality was such that you felt at ease and was just hanging out with a friend. It was a private tour just for the two of us and the one one experience was awesome.

Beutiful Cénote tour
Truly an amazing experience with such lovely tour guides. Both were extremely knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and went above and beyond to ensure we had the best trip. I will definitely be recommending this tour to friends as well as returning someday! Thank you both 💕

Ek Balam and Cenote
Chichen Itza was closed so we went to Ek Balam. We were able to climb the structures and learned a lot about the culture on the drive out! The Cenote was very refreshing as a long hot walk. Lunch was avg at best. The driver was very cautious and our guide was very knowledgeable. The price is a bit spendy, but we were not jammed in a hot bus and could control our AC and move on our achedule.

Extraordinary excursion
I had an amazing time! My experience was wonderful, was so beautiful. My tour guide was extremely nice, she even offered to take picture's. I felt safe the entire time, best trip ever. I recommend you book this excursion.

Great tour of 2 sites:...
Great tour of 2 sites: Coba was much more active (choice to bike through the site and climb) and Tulum was beautiful. Super convenient and comfortable to be picked up from our hotel and the van was well stocked with snacks. Guide and driver were both very friendly, knowledgeable and patient with the pace of my family that spanned the ages of 10-75.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wonderful and authentic cooking experience
I had a really lovely experience at Riviera’s Kitchen and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Tulum.
The class was small and intimate with only six people, which made it feel very relaxed and personal. The host was friendly, welcoming and very knowledgeable, and she explained everything clearly so it was easy to follow along.
We made several delicious dishes together, starting with a really hearty soup made with corn, courgette and chicken broth. Then we prepared tacos with a pork filling and made a variety of fresh salsas, including avocado salsa and chilli salsa. We also made some cheesy empanada-style snacks which were really tasty.
It was such a fun experience cooking together as a group and learning about the ingredients and techniques used in Mexican cooking. I feel like I could actually try making some of the dishes again at home.
Overall it was a fantastic experience and I would give it five out of five. I highly recommend it if you’re looking for an authentic and enjoyable cooking class in Tulum.

Great experience! Go for it
Great adventure and fun, really glad we did it. Negative reviews give some useful practical suggestions, but some must be down to expectations. Keep an open mind and go for it!
Raphael was a great guide and kept it moving along. Not everyone in a group responds in the same way but he was very patient.
Bear in mind this is in the middle of the forest/jungle - paths are rocky and rooty, steps to platforms can be uneven but take your time. The chain came off one ATV but they got it sorted quickly. No other issues.

Wonderful half day activity outside Tulum
Rodrigo was a wonderful, thoughtful guide - he was on time, a great driver, and very knowledgeable and funny. He clearly cared about the local community and had great relationships with the various people we encountered along the way. He offered bathroom breaks, snacks, stops, etc. with no pressure. Before pickup they were very responsive via text and it was super easy to arrange everything. Highly recommend doing this as a half day activity!

So fun!
It is very fun. If you expect to eat a lot, you won’t, but that is not the point of the tour… you will get to sample different and delicious tacos as well as get a history and explanation of the differences. We were with Armando and he was such a delight! Very knowledgeable and entertaining.

Jorge was an amazing guide
My husband and I were very pleased with this tour. It is indeed private so it was only us with our guide Jorge. He picked us up on time and was very attentive to our needs. He didn’t rush us at all and was very knowledgeable about Mexican history.
We promised to book this again when we return next year!
