Mexico · CANCUN TOURS & ACTIVITIES
Cancun is a base, not a destination — the good days start with a bus out of the hotel zone. These 15 cover the ruins, the cenotes, the reef and the islands, each priced, timed and honest about how much of it is spent in transit.

Cancun ATV jungle adventure with 3 zipline flights, cenote swim, and tequila tasting, plus hotel pickup from many areas for $49.
“The experience was amazing from the beginning. Carlos our driver made the first impression and he is honestly the best driver we’ve ever had. You could tell he genuinely enjoyed his job and wanted to provide the best quality experience he could. Our jungle guide Alan was also awesome. He carried a speaker throughout the jungle and even helped me get out of my comfort zone by going upside down on one of the zip lines. The entire experience was well worth the money. Make sure you bring cash to tip your driver and tour guide, they really appreciate it. You won’t regret booking. 10/10. Thank you!!!!”
One-day tour from Cancun to Tulum ruins, reef snorkeling, and cenote caves with pickup and lunch included, $35 tax extra.
“Pros and cons. On the positive side the guide was good and the variety of activities was good. We saw turtles coral stingrays and colourful fish. The photographs were nice and surprisingly we purchased the package (100 usd for 5 people and group shots) The cons. The timing was way off. We were told we would arrive in tulum about 9 (our pick up was 710) but arrived after 10 am. We were told by operator we would be back by 5 so we made dinner plans for 7. We arrived back after 7 pm. A second issue was how crowded the reef area was. We had about 15 people…”

But we left an hour later and was sunny, the lunch wasn’t good. At the hotel they say the operator pick people all the time at this hotel.”
Pick the day out first, then the town it happens in.
