What to expect

Spend an evening with a small Mayan community to learn about their lifestyle and traditions on this half-day tour. You'll begin with a tour of the village, before learning how to make tortillas the traditional way. Next, you'll take part in the temazcal ceremony, a sacred purification ceremony which takes place in a volcanic stone steam bath. Then, you'll have time for a nighttime dip in the community cenote, and, to round the evening off, you'll tuck into some traditional Mayan dishes for dinner.

    The experience was amazing, very spiritual with very knowledgable and inspiring guides Oskar and Gabriella. Although shaman spoke Spanish, Gabriella made every effort to keep us included and translated all to English. I have enjoyed every moment of tamazcal ceremony, cenote swim and I bought lovely souvenirs. Dinner with candles felt really connecting to the local people’s culture and we experienced lighting which added deepness into the experience. I just loved it. Thank you for this experience

    Tui descriptions on this activity was insufficient. You are seal in a pitch black clay doom with dozens of people while the shamen bring heated rocks and the inclosed space makes it a sauna. You cannot do this activity if you have breathing problems or back problems. Or if you are scared of the dark or crowds. You will also not get the full experience if you cannot swim or stand immence heat. Also the 2-4 hour time scale wrong. It is 4-8 including travel The experience itself is amazing

    We felt that the description of the tour didn't reflect the actual tour but this didn't stop us from enjoying it ..quite the opposite but think you should share more break down of info eg not suitable for people with clostrophobia or or a,nervous disposition and also that if you don't take and wear your swimwear you won't be able to do more than half of the events laid on Personally we found it an amazing and rewarding evening thank you.

Tulum, cenote swim, turtle snorkelling and beach club combo tour

Exploring Mexico just got a whole lot easier. On this full day adventure, you'll tick off no less than four different activities.

Carmen, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The most photographed structure in the archaeological site is the Castillo, which is perched on a cliff overlooking the Caribbean Sea. The Castillo might be the most famous, but there are plenty of other ancient Mayan ruins to explore, such as the Temple of the Descending God and the Temple of the Frescoes.'The marvels of the Mayan culture will be revealed on your guided tour around Tulum. You'll learn about it's past as a walled city, and its former role as a trading hub. After the tour you'll have free time to explore at your leisure. Next, prepare to be dazzled by colours at an ancient Mayan cenote, a natural cave with a freshwater pool fed by underground water sources and considered sacred by the Mayans.After a cooling swim, we'll head for the picturesque seaside community of Akumal, known for its laid-back atmosphere, natural beauty, and abundant marine life. With its intriguing underwater world, Akumal offers one of the best snorkelling experiences in the Riviera Maya. Encounter an array of tropical fish, corals, and perhaps even sea turtles. To complete your day, unwind and indulge in a tasty meal at a nearby beach club.
