Wonderful

We are a family of 5. This was a great tour. Pick up was at our Hotel, right on time. Read the fine print because an additional $25 per person was needed for taxes - which bumped up the price even more for us. Tulum was very hot, bring a steal water bottle because plastic bottles are not allowed on site. The tour guide offered a cooler of water which was greatly appreciated. Tour guide was knowledgeable, but my 9 year old was bored.. (no fault of the tour guide) -Snorkeling was great, but the best was the caves. It was an all day trip for us, enjoyed it, left with some great pics! Oh and bring a water proof camera case!

Little infrastructure of...

Little support infrastructure. Very hot and no restaurants. Eat only what is available on the walk.

A great fun-packed day!

We had a great tour with Paco- he was super knowledgeable about not only the Tulum ruins but also the general area and Mayan life- he was able to answer the MANY questions our children asked with good humour. Our personal highlight was the cenote which was beautiful and other-worldly, although I also loved seeing turtles while we snorkelled. I would say 2 things for travelling with kids- Tulum ruins are definitely hot so bring non-plastic drinks for sure and big sun hats!! Also the snorkelling was quite challenging with the waves, so I would only consider this if your kids are confident in the ocean or have snorkelled before! It was great to do so much in 1 day and made great memories.
