An unforgettable experience

Our group is 15 people, 7 of which are young kids. This was perfect for us because of the flexibility of the private group. We changed our pickup time from 7am to 8am, so that we had time to have breakfast before the 2 hour drive to Tulum. The adults enjoyed the tour in Tulum but it was too hot for little kids 3-5 years old. The lunch at the local restaurant was very good. The tour in Coba was wonderful, we rented bikes. Little kids were on the tricycles with local drivers. The last stop was swimming in cenote. It was at the end of the day and we had the cenote all to ourselves. The water was so clear and beautiful, we also saw many small fish. It was truly an unforgettable experience. Our tour guide Chippa was very professional and kind. Definitely worth the higher cost especially when you have little kids.

A great experience

This private tour was great. It was customized to our timeline, we did not feel rushed at all. Our guide was very knowledgeable and delightful to be with. The buffet lunch was delicious. We swam in an amazing cenote and our guide snapped amazing pictures for us. This private excursion was well worth the price.

I’d do it again!

In every way, this was amazing. Arianna shared her knowledge and passion for culture with us, and flying on the rickshaw bikes through Coba was so peaceful. So was the tranquil, underground cenote, as was our driver Fernando. It was all truly spectacular! Thank you.

All Day Trip

Fernando was a great tour guide. He was full of information answering all questions. The driver was safe and got us to all the places. I would highly recommend the tour was private and avoided large crowds. It’s all day and things went smooth.

Thank you for an excellent experience!

This was absolutely the best way to tour Coba and Tulum! Joseline could not have been a better guide (we learned so much from her) and Luis was an excellent driver. We had a smooth, laid back pace and the lunch stop was delicious! Thank you so much for a great day trip. Would completely recommend to anyone.

Great tour, long day!

Excellent tour. We loved our guide, Fernando. A big bus trip would’ve been miserable, so this was worth the high price tag. Take more cash than you think. Bike rental at Coba and drinks (even water) at lunch were extra charges. Also be aware it’s really an 11-12 hour day depending on traffic, even though the description says 7-8 hours.

Operator response

Thank you very much for sharing your wonderful experience during this incredible tour. We will send your kind comments to your guide. We hope you have taken with you an incredible experience.

Fantastic Tour of Mayan History

The tour with Guillermo was fantastic! He has such a wealth of knowledge on a wide variety of topics such as history, biology and other sciences, which really enriched our tour experience. Both he and our driver Luis were extremely professional, punctual, and friendly. Seeing the history at both the ruins of Tulum and Coba was incredible, but riding bikes through the jungle of Coba was absolutely the highlight of our vacation. Going to the cenote afterwards to cool off was nice as well, and it has some really cool stalactites inside. We are grateful to have had the chance to have this experience and can’t recommend it enough! It’s definitely worth it to do the private tours…you won’t regret it! Thanks again to Guillermo and Luis 😊
