Get ready for a full-day tour of Tulum and Akumal. You'll visit ancient Mayan ruins in Tulum perched above the Caribbean Sea, then snorkel with sea turtles in Akumal Bay. Then, take part in a traditional Mayan ceremony led by a local shaman – an authentic spiritual ritual that connects you with ancient customs – before tucking into a buffet lunch. Later, cool off with a dip in a couple of freshwater cenotes. These natural pools were believed by the Mayans to be portals to the underworld.
