    Lots to see and experience in ONE trip

    The guides were very nice. You get to experience a lot all in one trip. The downside to that is they aren't able talk as much about what you see. I did give a huge shout out to their response time when I had a question. My phone fell out of my bag of the van ride and I left it behind. I got a nearly immediate response on Whatsapp and they arranged to get it back to me the next morning!

    What they don't tell you

    I think its important to know what they don't tell you. Yes, the groups are small, because their vans only hold about 15 people, but, when they arrive with several other vans, its not really an advantage. Their vans are old and very uncomfortable, need serious repairs... we sat in the back of the van and it was a very painful ride with all the bumps. Its important to know because you are in these vans for several hours in the day, especially since you spend so much time picking up other guest from Playa thru Playcar and the resorts along the way. Secondly, they charged us $815 pesos "tax" fee for the parks. To enter the parks. How can the "tax" be more than the actual entrance fee?, combined the total entrance fees are about $745 pesos... I have been on dozens of Trip Advisor tour company tours all over the world and have had some really good guides. The good ones will give you information while you are on the road, history, culture, etc. The really good guides are passionate about their history and want to share it and engage with the group. These guides shared no information on the ride and very little information at the sites... and most people couldn't even hear what they were saying anyway. A good tour company will give you a headset or make sure everyone can hear. We learned more at Coba from the guy that pedaled the three wheel bike we were on than our guide and that wasn't much. Also, you only get to see a small portion of Tulum. They walk you thru quickly and then say "ok, you have 50 minutes to swim"... makes no sense, just to change into a suit and back to dry clothes with the walk to the bathroom (the only place to change) would have taken 20 minutes. It would have been better to see more of the site, that's what you go there for. The other sad part is the driver of the van has a sign posted that says he, basically, lives by the tips.. encouraging the guests to tip him. Tipping is customary on these tours, sure, not a problem, but, to say that the driver lives on the tips doesn't represent the tour company very well and that's sad.

    Response from the operator: Hi Steve Tulum taxes to enter to the site is : 305 MXN for Jaguar Park and Conanp + 215 MXN Tulum Ruins Coba Taxes are 125 MXN for the Coba Ejido (owners of the land where Coba ruins are) + 215 MXN for Coba site Total payment is 850 MXN We are so sorry you didnt enjoy our service, we open an investigation about some of the details you explain in your review Best regards

    5X1: Tulum and Coba Ruins, Cenote & Mayan Village Full Day Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Playa del Carmen.

    How much does 5X1: Tulum and Coba Ruins, Cenote & Mayan Village Full Day Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $1300 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Playa del Carmen usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 5X1: Tulum and Coba Ruins, Cenote & Mayan Village Full Day Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 11 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Playa del Carmen is not rushed.

    Is 5X1: Tulum and Coba Ruins, Cenote & Mayan Village Full Day Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 119 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Playa del Carmen, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 5X1: Tulum and Coba Ruins, Cenote & Mayan Village Full Day Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is 5X1: Tulum and Coba Ruins, Cenote & Mayan Village Full Day Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 11-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 5X1: Tulum and Coba Ruins, Cenote & Mayan Village Full Day Tour?

    +

    Around 42 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Playa del Carmen can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Playa del Carmen and add a light layer if any part of the 11-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 5X1: Tulum and Coba Ruins, Cenote & Mayan Village Full Day Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Playa del Carmen within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Playa del Carmen?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Playa del Carmen experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include VIP Chichen Itza Private Tour, VIP Tulum Private Tour, Chichen Itza Private Tour VIP. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Playa del Carmen?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Playa del Carmen?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
