Guidekin's take

A private half day that starts at the Tulum ruins when they open, then Akumal to snorkel with turtles and a cenote swim, with entries, snorkel gear and your own air conditioned van.

The pace and order are yours to change; lunch is an optional taco stop paid on the day. 5 from 239 reviews at €270 per person.

In our comparison: #1 of 27 in Tulum Ruins Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
