Please go to TULUM, you won't regret. A tip, if you stay in any resort in Riviera Maya, don't go with a organized trip from the hotel, just take a walk to the main road an get a "colectivo" (small white van's) for only 2$ U.S. or 10 Pesos. It's safe and you have one every 5 minutes with A\C... more

These Mayan ruins overlook the beautiful, blue ocean.The history of the ruins are fascinating. The grounds have tropical vegetation and plenty of iguanas roaming around. Be prepared for a decent walk to the ruins themselves and make sure to bring water with you because sometimes it gets humid and hot with no breeze. more

This is truly a beautiful site. We opted for a private driver with transport from our resort in Cancun to Tulum, then Xel - Ha. We booked this on-line before hand with entertainment-plus.net. They were fantastic. Great service and wonderful driver! We left early in the morning to get to Tulum first. Our driver (Andrew) walked us in and got... more

We chose to visit the Tulum ruins because we wanted to visit a site on the ocean in a very picturesque setting. Tulum was definitely beautiful, perched on the rocks with lots of foliage and wildlife (birds, iguanas). It was crowded when we went (around four o'clock), but once we started looking around we didn't really notice the other tourists.... more

We are not excursion/group people and like to do our own thing sightseeing. I gathered lots of info eg history/significance of the different buildings and a detailed map of... more

The trip to Tulum and the Mayan Ruins was an unforgettable experience. The hotel tours are very expensive but the more adventuous can take public transportation. Safe during the day, but at night may be different . You can save a "boatload" of money. Be sure to take your bathing suit and enjoy the most beautiful beach in the WORLD.... more

We went to Tulum on December 24, 2007 with a Grayline Tour that also included Xel-Ha. We bought the tickets at the kiosk in the Playacar shopping plaza. We were picked up there which probably saved a lot of different hotel pick ups. The drive was in a large full size air conditioned bus. We picked up one family at... more

While staying at the Playacar Palace in Playa del Carmen we took advantage of the included tours to visit Tulum, Chichen Itza, Ek-Balam and after transfering to the Xpu-Ha Palace, Coba. We deliberately chose to visit Tulum first as we were aware that the other sites contained structures far more impressive than anything offered by Tulum and this proved to... more

I'm very late in writing this review as we visited Tulum Ruins in July 2006 but the memory of being there is crystal clear. We loved the Tulum Ruins. It was an amazing sight to see. The beach is beautiful--the nicest one I have ever seen in my life. Just make sure you bring your bathing suit, towel a bottle... more
