Alondra was an amazing tour guide! If I go back, I will book anything she guides. She was knowledgeable, charismatic and genuinely fun to be around. I learned so much about Mayan culture while at the ruins. The sheer ability for such architecture to still be standing and such an important part of Mexican culture can truly only be understood after seeing it. Lunch was actually at a place I had on my food bucket list and it was worth all the hype. Followed by the most beautiful boat ride to float through a once in a lifetime reserve was both perfect. Perfect for the heat and humidity, but also a way to bask in the nature after basking in the history. It was absolutely worth it. I wouldn’t have wanted any other driver or tour guide. It was one of the best parts of my trip. I’m grateful I had the experience. Thank you!
We had an amazing time. Our guide Carlos was incredible and provided tremendous information about the history of the area. He was sensitive to the needs of everyone in the group and made sure everyone had a great time.

Full description
After being picked up from Tulum you will first visit TULUM ruins, then have a delicious Mexican lunch and then be transferred to the Sian Kaan Nature Reserve. Walk through this inspiring reserve and gaze out at an unblemished jungle.
Next, float and swim down through the canals between mangroves and gently make your way back out into the crystal-clear waters around the peninsula.
Experience the very best of this region. The food, the culture, the nature, and a bit of relaxation in the water make this a perfect half day trip.
