Tulum ruins and Swim with Turtles Private Tour
Swim with turtles tour … with Tulum ruins! When it comes to making the most of your trip to the Riviera Maya, there are two things you should definitely do: visit a Mayan archaeological site and enjoy the stunning natural beauty of the Caribbean Sea while snorkeling. This all-inclusive package, which combines a guided tour of Tulum with the chance to go snorkeling with sea turtles, will check both of those activities off your list. Better still, this private tour is ideal for families and those who are new to snorkeling!
We’ll start the day by visiting the ancient Mayan ruins of Tulum, a key trading post that was used by the famous civilization during their Post Classic period.
They traded all kinds of items here, from honey and textiles to precious stones and coffee beans. Your professional guide will lead you to all of Tulum’s most popular attractions, including the main temple El Castillo and the fascinating artwork in the Temple of the Frescoes. You’ll also have plenty of time to soak in the amazing views of the nearby Caribbean Sea, and of course take as many photos as you like.
Once your group is finished enjoying the wonders of Tulum, we’ll visit Akumal, a protected bay nearby where you can go for a swim with turtles! We’ll provide all of the equipment you need, and a professional certified guide will accompany you to ensure that everyone has a fun, safe time while snorkeling with these majestic creatures.
After a morning packed with exploring ruins on foot and swimming with turtles, you’ll undoubtedly be a bit hungry. That’s why our final stop is a local restaurant, where you can sit back, relax, and enjoy a traditional Mexican lunch with your friends and family.

Arturo and Omar were our Guide and driver ..they both showed extreme patience with my daughter and i as we ran a little late they still made time to stop for coffee..Thank God..the day was truly pleasurable ..Arturo becomes an instant friend that goes out of his way to make sure you are taken care of and attends to your request as if he truly considers you his personal guest in his country..and even when hit with my daughter’s desire for an authentic coconut beverage in Mexico he made it a mission to make it happen..the turtle experience arranged by Absolute Adventures is a Wonderful Experience but make it A forever Memorable Day and ask that Arturo be your guide ..You will Be Grateful You Did!

We decided to do this private tour to Tulum and Akumal bay. We were lucky to get the best tourgide. We had the most amazing tour with Arturo who showed us the most important places on the ruins and told us lots about the Mayan history. He was in a good mood for the whole morning and we felt very comfortable travelling along with him and his driver Ervin, who was the first driver we had we felt save with.
Also we received a lot of photos taken by our guide during our tour which are amazing. Such a great photographer!
Thank you so much for this amazing experience and fun day with the two of you.

We booked last minute for a Tulum/snorkel with turtles tour. It was to be or last adventure before leaving PDC the next day. Claire responded immediately and we were set to go. It was a private tour and well worth it! We also ate at a local restaurant in Akumal and it was wonderful.

We did the Tulum and Turtles tour. It was fantastic! Tulum was beautiful and we were there before it was too busy. Our tour guide had a lot of interesting facts to share with us. Snorkeling with the sea turtles was so cool. We saw about 6 or so which was totally rad. We loved having the van to ourselves and getting to take as much time as we needed everywhere.
