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!

Coolest experience!
We had the most incredible cenotes trip with Eduardo, and we cannot recommend him enough. From start to finish, he made the entire experience feel so personal, fun, safe, and unforgettable.
Eduardo was warm, knowledgeable, and so easy to be around. He shared so much about the area, the cenotes, and Mexican history and culture, which made the experience feel so much more meaningful than just a tour. You could tell he genuinely cared about making sure we had the best day.
The cenotes themselves were absolutely stunning, but Eduardo made the trip even better. He knew exactly where to take us, helped us feel comfortable the entire time, and made everything easy and relaxed. It never felt rushed or overly touristy — it felt like such a special and authentic experience.
This ended up being one of the highlights of our entire trip. If you are visiting Tulum or the Riviera Maya and want to see the cenotes, book with Eduardo. You will be so glad you did.

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.

Three Cenotes and a Handstand Backflip Dive
Julio did a great job with the tour and preparation. We met in front of a little pizza shop on the street, easy to find, and hopped in the tour van. Julio provided water and snacks and gave us history of the three very different cenotes we visited. First a long beautiful snorkeling guide through mangrove trees and the underwater world. Then the Gran Cenote, the first with two mystical caves—yes there are bats but they’re chilling and the history is amazing—including the blend of limestone and tree roots which this cenote feeds. Finally we went to a fun cenote with jumping platforms. And Julio wowed us with a handstand plunge and backflip dive. The water is immaculate in all three, history was intriguing and Julio was a great guide. Highly Recommended!

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.
Her knowledge of history was exceptional, truly understood everything she was explaining. Got to meet new people that were kind and genuine. 10/10 book it!

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.

Excellent Mayan Ruins Tour
Excellent Guide. He told us great stories as we toured the ruins. He had a great sense of humor. Provided us with water and allowed us to explore at our own pace. He even let us stop for gelato on the
way back to our villa. Would highly recommend this tour to family and friends.

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!

Miguel was an excellent...
Miguel was an excellent guide who provided us with a brilliant day. He took us to the three different cenotes with enough time in each one. The first and last three cenotes were especially great as we were on our own. To top everything off, we had a lovely lunch at Valladolid. A great experience!

Nice Cave Dive
Excellent cave dive. I have never done that before. The water was beautiful blue and turquoise green. The dive guide was knowledgeable, he gave good advice, and helped when I had difficulty getting the right balance with my bc. He also pointed me to a good restaurant, place for mojitos, and another Cenote to explore. One recommendation I would give is to save the battery life on the camera. I was given the camera. Having a photographer would have been worth it. However, I ended up burning the battery life when the end of the second dive had the best scenery.
