About this experience
This tour offers two carefully designed experiences across two days, combining history, nature, and wildlife without rushing. On the first day, explore the cultural heart of the Riviera Maya with a guided visit to the Tulum Archaeological Site, a unique encounter with sea turtles in Akumal, and a refreshing swim in a crystal-clear cenote.
On the second day, discover the natural wonders of Yucatán, including the pink lagoons of Las Coloradas and a scenic boat ride through the mangroves of Ría Lagartos, home to flamingos, crocodiles, and exotic birds. Complete the experience with a traditional Mayan mud bath and a fresh local meal. This two-day format allows deeper exploration, better pacing, and a richer connection with the region.
