Tulum ruins & Coba ruins Private Tour
If you’ve come to visit the Riviera Maya because you’re fascinated by the ancient Mayan cities, then this all-inclusive private Tulum Coba tour is perfect for your group. Not only will we take you and your fellow history lovers to explore the ancient city of Coba, which dates back to the Classic period of the Mayan history, but we’ll also visit the coastal ruins of Tulum, a former trading port that was at its peak during the civilization’s Postclassic period.
Our tour begins with a visit to Tulum, which is widely considered to be one of the most important sites left by the Mayans.
We plan our tours to avoid the crowds so that you can enjoy the experience as much as possible, and also provide you with a friendly, knowledgeable personal tour guide who will show you all of the archaeological highlights and share fascinating facts about the Mayans with you. In addition to viewing the beautiful temple of the descending god, you’ll be able to view the impressive main temple “El Castillo” and spend as much time as you like enjoying the breathtaking views of the nearby Caribbean Sea.
Once you’ve explored every single nook and cranny of Tulum, we’ll head to the ancient city of Coba, which is located a bit further inland. To start, we’ll go for an unforgettable ride through the jungle on the city’s famous network of ancient stone roadways.
Your tour guide will also take you to see Coba’s most interesting features, such as the large pyramid Nohoch Mul, which you’ll be welcome to climb if you want! Finally, we’ll end the tour by stopping for a delicious lunch of authentic Mexican food at a local restaurant, where you can relax and discuss all of the amazing things you’ve seen and done throughout the day.

Certainly recommend this company. We had a large group of us including two young children and a disabled adult. We booked a private tour of Coba and Tulum archaeological sites. Claire was very kind and very helpful on the phone regarding our booking – which we admittedly did with just a few day’s notice. They had snacks and drinks in the air conditioned vehicle. The price was very reasonable for what was on offer. Arturo was very knowledgeable and Ervin was very friendly. We went to a nice Mexican restaurant for lunch too.

We had an amazing time visiting both sites. It was so interesting to learn about another culture. The vehicle was comfortable. The food was good. Everyone was so friendly. I would definitely recommend this to anyone taking a trip to Playa del Carmen.

Great private tour to Tulum and Coba. Good communication prior to our arrival in Mexico. Well Informed guide. Pace was good and the tour was appropriately tailored to our interests. Having toured some of this area with other companies, these guys are much better. Far more personal and service oriented. Highly recommend

Our family private tour was awesome! Jaun was our guide and he was friendly, honest, knowledgeable and easy going. He was the best tour guide our family has ever had. Thank you for a great experience and for really making the private tour worth our time and money. Excellent service. Would work with the company again and again.

Absolute Adventure staff was very professional. They arrived on time at our hotel and we arrived first in Tulum. Arturo was always checking how we are doing and reminded us that we can go at our own pace. There were plenty of drinks in the van. We couldn’t have wish for a better day! Thanks Arturo!

We were looking for a specific private tour of Tulum and Coba ruins and most companies offer an either/or option with snorkeling or a cenote swim. Juan and Ervin where our guide and driver respectively, and they were great. Juan was very knowledgeable, personable, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a safe, fulfilling, and enjoyable experience. We were picked up at our hotel on time and headed out to Tulum first, arriving before the park opened and before the massive crowds. Juan got our entry tickets and arranged for our guide, selecting a guide that complimented my wife’s interest in botany, then accompanied us through the ruins, adding much to our experience with his knowledge. We then headed to Coba where again Juan took care of everything including bicycle rental and a guide of the archaeological site. Then off to lunch at a nearby local restaurant with great food. We cannot recommend Juan and Absolute Adventure highly enough.

Arturo was our guide for the Tulum and Coba tour. He answered all our questions and told us about the Mexican culture. We were not sure about booking a private tour but we loved it. We had a driver, van and guide for ourselves, and we were never rushed! Arturo took pictures of us and they were emailed to us the next day. Thanks for this “Absolute” Adventure!
