Private Tours in Playa del Carmen

126 tours · €38–€886 per person · ★ 5.0

Every private tour in Playa del Carmen on this page was picked by hand: we read every listing and kept 126 tours rated 4.5★ or higher. Prices go from €38 per person for Akumal snorkelling visits to €886 for private yacht charters priced per boat. A private Chichen Itza tour can combine the ruins with a cenote swim and lunch, with transport just for your party between stops.

A quick way to choose: check whether Chichen Itza taxes and road tolls are included, as some trips charge them separately; on a private cenote tour, snorkelling gear can be included while lunch is extra; yacht charters often exclude transfers and dock fees, even when food and drinks are covered.

Frequently Asked Questions

Start with Private Cenotes for a half day underground. If ruins are your priority, give Chichen Itza a day of its own: the Chichen Itza VIP Express tour still takes a full day. The private Chichen Itza tours here have a median duration of 9 hours; private cenote tours have a median of 5 hours. For example, Chichen Itza VIP Express costs €188 per person, rated 5 from 82 reviews. Private Cenotes costs €223 per person, rated 5 from 154 reviews.

Budget per person for Private Cenotes and per boat for Private Yacht Snorkel and Beach. For the charter, divide the vehicle price by your party size. Per-person listings here have a median of €231; the middle half cost €187 to €274 per person. Yacht charters on this page have a median of €1,454 per boat. For example, Private Cenotes: €223 per person, rated 5 from 154 reviews. Private Yacht Snorkel and Beach: €1,089 per boat, rated 5 from 290 reviews.

Choose Tulum Express for a short ruins visit or Sunset Sea Ray for an evening on the water; keep a Chichen Itza trip for a day of its own. 26 of the 126 private tours that state a duration take up to three hours. For example, Tulum Express costs €124 per person, rated 4.94 from 69 reviews. Sunset Sea Ray costs €762 per boat, rated 4.98 from 123 reviews.

Among 126 private tours, 37 are operator-marked accessible: filter first, then confirm with the operator. For a family outing, choose Private Cenote Snorkeling with Mayan Lunch. The kids filter means strollers and infants accepted; 104 of 126 private tours list both. For example, Private Cenote Snorkeling with Mayan Lunch costs €163 per person, rated 5 from 67 reviews. These child flags do not establish swimming suitability, and a boat or car format does not establish accessibility.

For entry and lunch, start with Chichen Itza, Cenote and Valladolid with Lunch. The custom Chichen Itza, Oxman and Valladolid tour leaves both sites' tickets, meals and other drinks extra. For example, Private Chichen Itza, Cenote and Valladolid with Lunch costs €291 per person, rated 5 from 243 reviews. Private Chichen Itza, Oxman and Valladolid costs €167 per person, rated 5 from 153 reviews; both sites' tickets, meals and other drinks are extra.

Choose Cenotes of Tulum and Riviera Maya for a private day with hotel pickup. For Private Yacht Snorkel and Beach, budget for transport separately. 74 of 126 tours list hotel pickup; none of 39 yacht charters list it. For example, Cenotes of Tulum and Riviera Maya costs €181 per person, rated 5 from 406 reviews. Private Yacht Snorkel and Beach costs €1,089 per boat, rated 5 from 290 reviews; transport and dock fees are extra.
