About this activity
Enjoy a convenient pickup from your Cancun or Riviera Maya hotel at 8am, then set off with a professional guide to visit two of the premiere ruins in the Riviera Maya. First, discover the ruins of Tulum, juxtaposed against the beautiful backdrop of the Caribbean's white-sand beaches. Stroll past the temples and pyramids, hearing from your guide about the importance of this archaeological site to the Maya culture.
Next, visit a Maya community and hear personal stories from the locals about their heritage. Gain insight into Maya history and traditions, then sit down and enjoy a buffet lunch of typical Mexican fare. Choose between chicken fajitas, beef fajitas, panela cheese, or chile relleno; plus beans, rice, and handmade tortillas.
After lunch, visit Coba — one of the largest cities built by the Mayas. Explore the vast ruins, and learn about its history from your certified guide. Climb to the top of Nohoch Muul–the tallest pyramid on the Yucatán Peninsula–before being taken back to your hotel around 3pm.

Loved this trip! There was a problem with the van we were originally scheduled on, but they quickly got us with another group and we were picked up only 5 minutes late. The tour was fantastic and the tour guide was so nice and very goood about speaking in both Spanish and English. He was knowledgeable about all of the sites, and the provided lunch was the best authentic Mexican food we had while on our trip. Highly recommended!
This tour was very disorganized. We paid for a small group tour, but when we got to Tulum, we were combined with other vans for a group larger than a tour bus. We were handed off from guide to guide, the tickets weren't ready when it was time to enter, end result we got 45 minutes inside Tulum and only because we ditched the group. We had a group of 7 who were always late returning and yet nothing was said to them. We had a flat tire on the way back not their fault, of course which took 90 minutes to get repaired no spare!. Instead of taking us back to our hotels, the group that was always late wanted to go into Playa del Carmen and were late again! Got back to our hotel after all the restaurants were closed and had another excursion leaving at 7 AM the next day. We saw what we wanted to see, but we could have just taken a taxi and done the same trip better ourselves. Would not go to the end of the block with these people.
Was switched to a different tour groupAmazing Adventures from original tourKbron travels. This added extra stops that we were not aware of. Original tour was suppose to return at 3pm id not get back to Hotel until 7pm. Our van did not have a tour guide and I think we were at a disadvantage from the other 2 vans that did. We met our tour gulde at Tulum. No guide at Coba. Lunch was second rate compared to Chicken Itza.
The trip was great. Tulum and Coba were beautiful and we had plenty of time to explore. We were also able to swim in a cenote near Coba which was amazing. The guide, Jesus, was very friendly and knowledgable and gave a wonderful tour of the area. The only knocks I have on this are that the food was not very good and that the tour was MUCH longer than advertised it said 7 hours, it took over 11 and it caused us to miss our dinner reservations. Beside these small things, I would highly recommend it
