A most excellent tour and tour guide!

Cesar was our tour guide, and he made this a really special experience. He was very knowledgeable, kind, friendly, and he obviously enjoyed being our guide. Super positive experience with him. He should get a raise! The tour itself was better than I expected, and my expectations were high. The Tulum ruins were incredible. It covered a much larger area and was more developed than I expected. Cesar helped us understand what life was like there at that time. The second half of the tour, where we went to Sian Ka’an and floated down a channel through the mangroves was an unforgettable experience. I feel like my wife and I watered able to experience some of the jewels of Mexico. I am grateful, and I would love to come back and see more.

Perfect!

We did this tour with Paloma as our guide and Irbin as our driver, and it was just great! A huge thank you to Paloma, who made this day incredible. She was always in a good mood, smiling, attentive and really concerned about our well-being throughout the tour. She took the time to explain everything in detail, with a lot of passion and clarity. You can feel that she loves what she does, and that makes all the difference. We started with the ruins of Tulum, a beautiful place full of history. The explanations were very interesting and enriching. We then went to the Sian Ka’an Reserve: a magical and unforgettable experience! The scenery was sublime and the kids loved it. As we were with young children, it was very important to us that everything was well supervised and safe — and it was perfectly the case. A snack was even provided if needed, which is very appreciable attention. We also really appreciated Paloma taking pictures for us, as we couldn't do it while swimming. And finally, she even put music on the way home to please the children. A perfect day from start to finish. We recommend this excursion with your eyes closed!
