Tour Chichén Itzá, swim in Cenote Chichikán, and stroll Valladolid on a long day with guide-led history, transport, and a buffet.

“The tour was amazing. I would give Edwin 20/10 if possible. He is extremely knowledgeable and charismatic. We learned a ton about Mayan culture and the time we spent at chichen itza was very memorable and we were able to purchase some of their work at a small stop before hand. I would recommend this tour 100% - make sure to prepay your entrance fee to make your day as smooth as possible! Thank you Edwin for a fantastic day! BH”

Lovely atmosphere early evening in Valladolid. Just be aware there is an extra tourist tax of 44 US dollars per person. You can pay this at Chichen Itza in person.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 6,722 reviews · 12 hours · from $49

Chichén Itzá, cenote swim, and Valladolid in one 12-hour day from Cancun. Guided ruins, tequila tasting, and optional lunch.

“What an amazing day and well worth the 5am pick up. Our guide Manuel, driver Carlos and assistant Garry were all super friendly, helpful and very informative. The whole day ran smoothly and everything was explained to us fully before leaving the coach at each destination. Manuel was so knowledgeable but made it funny too so you weren’t just bombarded with facts. Although Chichen Itza was extremely busy on our arrival Manuel & Garry got us through swiftly and after some free time they guided us around the ruins. Cenote just wow it didn’t feel rushed and once we received our wristbands be could explore and have lunch at our…”

4.Early morning Chichen Itza Tour: Cenote and Tequila Tasting

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 6,657 reviews · 12 hours (approx.) · from $26Best value

Early Chichén Itzá tour from Cancun with a cenote swim, buffet lunch, tequila tasting, and a short Valladolid visit.

“The pick up from meeting point was 40 minutes late. Not nice to wait in dark and cold without information. Would have wanted more time in Chichen Itza, we were there 2,5 hours. The food during lunch was rather below average. To swim in the cenote you had to pay extra for locker and life jacket which were mandatory to use. Tequila tasting lasted ca 10 minutes. There was no time to explore Valladolid since we were there for 20 minutes. Notice that in order to visit Chichen Itza you have to pay extra 45 usd for entrance fee, that is not included in the tour price. The tour guides…”

Tulum ruins, reef snorkeling, and cenote caves in one long day. Includes lunch and pickup, plus a separate $35 marine tax.

“The driver picked me up right on time, and everything went smoothly from the start. We picked up Mimi (our guide) and the photographer on the way, then headed to Tulum. Mimi explained everything clearly — where to go, when to change, and what to expect — which made the day super easy and stress-free. Snorkeling at the beach was fun, and the photographer took great pictures, including underwater ones with a GoPro. The cenote cave was a bit scary because it’s dark, but the water was crystal clear and the rock formations were incredible. You can get so close to them, which is something you usually can’t do in…”

8.Chichen Itza Early Access All Inclusive: Hotel Pick up & All Fees

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 4,123 reviews · 9 hours (approx.) · from $165

Early access to Chichén Itzá from Cancún with hotel pickup, a guide-led walkthrough, and cooler morning ruins viewing. Long day, packed value.

“The pick up time is definitely early in the morning between 430am and 6am. The tour guides we had were Alberto(Beto) and Manuel. They filled the day with great information and a true cultural exchange which made it truly enjoyable. The buffet lunch was ok but the small shops around it were nice to check out local artisans and their art. Keep in mind its a full day with the 2.5hr bus ride each way but also a decent amount of time to explore and take pictures.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 3,903 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $49

ATV jungle ride, zipline bridges, cenote swim, and tequila tasting near Cancun. Includes pickup, snacks, and Mayan show for $49.

“It was a lot of fun and worth the money :) great activities, and the guides were fun in encouraging us to face our fears. We liked the relaxed style of the guiding, like throwing us in a safari-type truck and blasting down the highway, making sharp turns into the jungle… it was fun. As we read in reviews, every experience they found a way to offer more products. It did become exhausting after hours of it. At the end of the day, we made a bet at how many more times we’d be asked for money. It begins at entry, as the usher you to a salesman who tries…”

Luxury-style sailing to Isla Mujeres from Cancun with hotel pickup, snorkeling, open bar, and time on the island. Adults-only or family.

“Do NOT book with Cancún Adventures! They modified this excursion after we arrived- stating we could sail but not swim or snorkel due to high winds. We were guaranteed a refund if we decided not to board the boat. They LIED. Extremely unprofessional and deceptive to the customer. Viator should do better researching the companies they represent. DO NOT BOOK ANY EXCURSION WITH CANCÚN ADVENTURES- BEWARE!”

“It was an awesome day cruise. The people are very, very organized, safety, conscious, and extremely nice! The snorkeling was great! The beach time and time on your own was the perfect length before you go back to the boat and back to the home port. I highly recommend this catamaran cruise for anybody that's looking for an excursion on the water and having a great time with a lot of other people from other countries also looking for having a good time. It's a must do!”
