The tour begins with pickup from hotels in centrally located areas of the Riviera Maya, including Cancun, Playa Mujeres, Costa Mujeres, Puerto Morelos, and Playa del Carmen, or from a designated meeting point. Participants travel in an air-conditioned vehicle to the Tulum Mayan Ruins, an archaeological site that was once a significant port city in the ancient Mayan civilization. Upon arrival, visitors receive priority access and take a guided tour lasting about two hours. The guide explains the main attractions within the walled city, including temples and the Mayan astronomical observatory, providing information about the site's history and cultural importance. After the Tulum visit, the tour continues to Cenote Nohoch, where there is approximately two hours to swim in the freshwater cenote. Snorkel gear and lifejackets are available for rent at an additional cost. After swimming, the group returns along scenic routes to the original departure point. The full tour lasts about six hours and includes admission fees and priority access at the Tulum archaeological site, a professional guide, and roundtrip transportation if hotel pickup is selected. Mandatory government taxes and fees for Tulum and the natural reserve are payable in cash on the day of the tour. Participants should be prepared to walk about 1.5 miles (2 kilometers) at a leisurely pace and to climb stairs during the visit. It is recommended to bring swimwear, a towel, a change of clothes, sunscreen, insect repellent, and spending money for optional expenses such as lunch, snorkel rental, and gratuities.
