A fantastic Mexican experience!
What a fantastic day! Absolute Adventures runs a top notch operation, and we were so happy with our tour guide Josh. He was so welcoming and friendly, and did everything to make sure we had an enjoyable day. From the on time pickup, to the tour he gave us filled with the rich history of Chichén Itzá, to the refreshing dip in the cenote, everything surpassed our expectations. The restaurant in Valladolid where we had lunch was delicious! Great job Absolute Adventures and Josh, keep up the great work, we truly enjoyed our day with you.
Jasmine
Fascinating experience at your own pace
We had an incredible private excursion exploring the Tulum ruins and snorkeling in the Dos Ojos cenote. The experience was both educational and fascinating, made even better by our guide, Juan. He was extremely knowledgeable and personable, sharing so much insight into Mayan history and the natural wonders of the area in a way that was engaging and easy to follow. Choosing the private tour over a shared group experience was absolutely worth it. We loved being able to move at our own pace, linger at spots that interested us, and never feel rushed. It made the whole day feel more relaxed and personalized. Highly recommend this excursion to anyone looking for a more intimate and enriching way to explore the Riviera Maya!
Molly
Wonderful experience!
My family and I visited Mexico this past month and had a wonderful day exploring ruins and swimming in cenotes. Juan was a wonderful guide and we thoroughly enjoyed spending time with him. We will absolutely be back next year for another tour and will ask for Juan!
Karen
Beautiful tour of Tulum with friends
Fantastic experience, loved learning about the history and culture. Jason and Rodrigo were wonderful, on time and very service oriented. Jason was very knowledgeable and really brought the past to life with his stories. The scenery and views were beautiful. Highly recommend.
Christian
First class service Chichen Itza
First class service with a highly engaging and knowledgeable personal guide. Juan gave us insights into the Mexican culture and way of life drawing on his own experiences. The tour of Chichen Itza was superb and he explained the historic significance and what life could have been like in the city
Casey
Amazing tour, amazing views, and an amazing tour guide!
Amazing experience! Snorkeling in the Yal Ku Lagoon was such an incredible time and the Tak bi Ha cenote was UNREAL! Arturo was a great tour guide, showing us so many unique aspects of the places we went. Absolutely recommend.
TTLyon
Top notch with a personal touch. The staff was very experienced.
Alex and Yosmar were the best guides ever. Alex is brimming with knowledge of the ancient culture as well as the geography. Snorkeling the Cenote was amazing and lunch was imitate and private. The water was crisp and clear and the experience was amazing. 5 Stars. We would do it again without hesitation.
Katie

Ryan
10 out of 10, highly recommend, would use Absolute Adventure again.
5 Stars for Josh our tour guide at Tulum. We booked a half day for our family (9 total, 6 adults and 3 children). For less than $100 each, we were picked up from our resort, transported to Parque del Jaguar, guided through the ruins for about 2 hours, bought some gifts, and taken back to our resort. For our family (ages 9 to 70), a half day tour of the ruins only was perfect. Our guide Josh provided an excellent explanation of what we were seeing, how the Mayans lived, what the Conquistadors would have encountered, and answered all our questions about life in pre and post colonial Yucatán. He even had pictures on his tablet to reference for more details. Overall, we never felt unsafe, unsure, or unsettled. 10 out of 10, highly recommend. Would use Absolute Adventure again. Thank you to Josh for making our time in Mexico wonderful!
Amanda
Highly recommend!
Alex was an extremely knowledgeable guide and very pleasant to spend the day with! Never felt rushed. Loved the private van so we didn’t have to make any stops and never had to wait. Omar was a great driver too! Hassle free booking, timely pick-up, and great communication. Highly recommend!
