★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 588 reviews · 12 hours (approx.) · from $89Our pick

Early-access Ek Balam, Chichén Itzá, and a cenote swim from Playa del Carmen with buffet lunch. Small group tour.

“Marcella was absolutely amazing! Our driver was really good too. He drove safe, our van was nice, and comfortable. Sexy Marcella knew the history of the area, it's people, their customs, their story, as well as what each one of the buildings in the ruins were used for. She had no problem diving into the ground to get the most perfect photo for us. Sometimes she would tell someone "wait stand still!" And take a picture. She knew how to get all the best pictures. She was friends with all the locals too. Marcella gave us more than a tour through the area. We got back to the hotel and…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 196 reviews · from $89

Playa del Carmen day trip to Chichén Itzá, a Chichikán cenote swim, buffet lunch, tequila tasting, and a quick Valladolid stroll.

“Paul was brilliant & very knowledgeable. Driver Ivan made us feel very safe & comfortable. The only downside is it’s a long day but it’s out of there control of course. We was also told soft drinks would be included in the price but when we arrived at the Cenote after a scorching day we had to pay. Not much of an issue just a heads up in case you planned not to bring money if you think it’s free.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 73 reviews · 12 hours (approx.) · from $37Best value

Chichén Itzá, Saamal cenote swim, and Valladolid in one 12-hour tour with hotel pickup and a regional buffet.

“Overall it was a good trip. We were picked up 20mins late at 7:45am. Bus picked up all guests and first stop around 11:45am was at a Mayan Village (Kaua) followed by lunch. Lunch had lots of vegetarian options which was nice. After this we headed to Chichen Itza and spent about 2 hrs there. We were given 15mins tour by guide, rest we were asked to explore ourselves. It was fun looking around but very very hot there. After that we headed to Oxman Cenote where we stopped for an hour. After that we went to Valladoid and spent 30 mins there. By 530 we were on our way…”

5.Tour to Cozumel by Catamaran with Snorkeling and Buffet Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 47 reviews · 10 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $161

Catamaran day trip from Playa del Carmen to Cozumel for reef snorkeling, starfish sanctuary, lunch at Playa Mia, and a town stroll.

“Please do not book with this company ever! I’ve had the worst experience with them. Their advertisement never states a child age restriction. They allow you to purchase tickets for children without advising people that children under 6 are not allowed on a catamaran and children under 8 are not allowed to snorkel in Cozumel waters. My daughter is 5 1/2 and after arriving at the meet up point, they told us we were not gonna be allowed to board the boat due to her being under 6. They took my full payment of $498 for 3 people (me my husband and daughter) and never informed us of an age…”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 47 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) · from $69Top rated

A full-day Tulum and Cobá combo with a cenote visit, Mayan traditions, and a buffet lunch, plus expert-guided archaeological stops.

“A better experience with two archeological sites at Tulum and Coba with two cenote swims. The immersion into the Mayan Village was a nice touch with the lunch. Chichen Itza is too long of a trip at 12 hours. However, it is a one of the Seven Wonders of the World now. The tour guide was great. Susana.”

Extreme Adventure in Cobá (ATVs + Zip Lines + Cenote + Buffet) - Cave cenote: where the Tree of Life story becomes physical

7.Extreme Adventure in Cobá (ATVs + Zip Lines + Cenote + Buffet)

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 31 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) · from $135

ATV rides, zip lines, a cave cenote, and Cobá by bicycle, with pickup from Tulum and Playa del Carmen plus a buffet lunch.

“The only cool thing about this tour is the cave cenote. The facility in Tulum where the vans meet up had a women’s bathroom but no working light so we had to take a flashlight. The road off the highway to get to the activities is so bumpy that it’s takes a good 30 minutes to get down the driveway. The ATVs are really loud. The front tires are super wide and I’m pretty sure they are made to go on the back tires. When you hit a bump, they bite into the road and the steering jerks. I almost crashed a couple times and I have been driving ATV’s…”
