“Love, love, love! Everything about this day was amazing! It was my first time traveling solo, but I never felt alone. Raul, Marcel, and Ivon were great: professional, courteous, friendly, and knowledgeable. I’d definitely do this again, but I’d also do excursions to each of the places separately to have more time there.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 924 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $79

“I reserved on Thursday afternoon to be picked up on Friday at 9am. They didn't respond to messages via Viator or whatsapp on Thursday afternoon or Friday morning. I waited for them for an hour before giving up. They finally sent me a message several hours after the pick up time, after I sent them many messages and I complained to Viator. I received a refund but wasted a day of my vacation.”

5.Tulum Mayan Ruins and Cenote Swim from Riviera Maya

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 176 reviews · 6 hours (approx.) · from $79

Visit Tulum with a local guide, then cool off in Cenote Puerta Maya. The six-hour outing includes Tulum admission and priority access, with guides such as Jackie, Julian, and Marie leading some departures. Hotel pickup is available from much of the Cancun and Riviera Maya area.

“Transportation there and back way too long longer than the actual Tour even though we were only 30 min away from Tulum. Picked up and waited for many other added on passengers and went opposite way to drop them off. Had to line up at Tulum for multiple wrist bands. No guide speaking on the bus and short explaining at Tulum. Two hours at the centre way too long. Full of Bat poop. Used Viator in Costa Rica and had a much better experience. Might be hesitant to use viator again”

6.Tulum Mayan Ruins and Cenote Swim from Cancun

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 154 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $79

Visit Tulum with guides such as Mary, Jackie, Jerry, or Gabriel, then cool off in Cenote Puerta Maya. Expect Maya history, beach views, a swim, optional snorkeling, shared transport, and a long day from Cancun with 750 MXN in cash fees.

“We drove around in circles picking up people and in one case, waited 45m for a family. The travel time both ways was over 5 hours when it should have been 2-2.5h max. It kind of ruined what were 2 beautiful experiences. The cenote was lovely - small, quiet, refreshing and the Tulum ruins were pretty cool too - lovely area. But just not worth spending 3/4th of a day with most of it driving in random directions.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 70 reviews · 7 hours (approx.)

Start with a guided visit to Tulum, then ride a Can-Am ATV through jungle trails, snorkel an underground river, and eat a Mexican buffet lunch. Hotel pickup, gear, guides, and return transport are included. Expect a brisk day with some extra fees and limited free time.

“I love archeology and my best friend loves adrenalin filled activities, so this seemed like the perfect combo. Yes, she was a little bored looking at the ruins, but I found it fascinating and learned quite a bit about the Mayans. Our incredible guide, Armando, then took us to the activities. Although the ziplining wasn't as gorgeous as Costa Rica (in all fairness, I doubt anything ever will be), it was incredibly fun and I felt much more secure on those lines than the ones in Costa Rica. The ATVs almost lost the review a star as mine had some clear mechanical issues. Our guide for that portion swapped ATVs…”
