Tour Tulum
Touring Tulum is one of the most beautiful areas on the Mayan Riviera. Very close to Playa Del Carmen it offers a perfect vacation getaway or a great place to tour from your hotel in Playa. There are warm sandy beaches, sunny jungles, stunning ruins, and all the things that make Mexico such a great place. You can even stay in Tulum if you want to really get away from the tourist scene. Many beachside cabanas are offered for you to stay the night in. Relax in a hammock and watch the sunsets and iguanas cross your path. Just next door to Tulum are some of the most stunning Mayan ruins in Latin America.
Long ago, Tulum was a flourishing Mayan city perched just off the Caribbean Sea. This amazing setting makes for unforgettable vistas and truly memorable tous. Just a short day trip away from Playa Del Carmen, Tulum was once a major trading post for Mayans and Spaniards alike. Today there still is a lot to do and see here.
One of the most popular cities on the Mayan riviera, Tulum has escaped much of what plauges Cancun, and yes even Playa Del Carmen sometimes… big business tourism. You won’t find major resorts and crazy bars and over sexed/drunk teenagers here. This is a place of beauty, relaxation and contemplation. You can explore the over sixty archeological sites around the area, well preserved and monuments to great civilizations of long ago. Be sure not to miss a trip to El Castillo that is built atop the highest point in Tulum. This is a temple built like a pyramid that has served as a lighthouse and guard tower for generations. You can see many of the other ruins from this vantage point.
Whether you take a tour of Tulum to see the historical sites, enjoy the uncrowded beaches, swim in the turquoise waters, or relax in a truly relaxed setting, Tulum has a lot to offer for the budget traveler and family vacations as well. You won’t ever forget that time you were able to sleep in a cabana on the beach, watch the sunrise from your palapa and enjoy the sunsets swinging in your hammock. Take a tour of Tulum, you won’t regret it!
