Highlights

Itinerary

Your Tulum Coba tour begins with an exciting expedition to a place where the secrets of the ancient world await. Explore the old archaeological zone at your leisure, marveling at the unique prehispanic structures while soaking up the sun on the pristine white-sand beach.

Next, walk along the ceremonial avenues of Coba as we venture into the heart of the jungle. Climb ancient mounds and ascend the tallest pyramid in the state to view the spectacular surrounding lush wilderness from the top. Uncover the old mysteries of this once-great Mayan city, where undiscovered ruins lie covered in roots and vines, evoking an adventurous spirit reminiscent of Indiana Jones.

After a tasty Yucatan-style lunch, we continue our expedition to the beautiful Cenote Tankach-ha (meaning “Deep Water” in Maya), a sinkhole shrouded in enchantment. Plunge into its deepness of 35 m (114 ft) from multiple jumping platforms, or only relax in the crystal-clear waters and swim in this giant cave cenote.

But our journey doesn’t end there! Immerse yourself in the rich Mayan culture at a local open-air museum to witness firsthand the traditions of the indigenous people. A local guide will take you through the village and explain pottery-making, ancient culinary practices, hunting, healing remedies, and much more! Craft your pottery and savor the flavors of freshly-made tortillas, accompanied by eggs, village-grown vegetables, and savory sauces. A once-lifetime experience!

As the sun sets on a day filled with adventure and discovery, relax as we take you back to your accommodation.
