Why Choose Tulum for Your Next Getaway? 


Tulum is a dream destination that has something for everyone. Known for its bohemian vibe, stunning beaches, and eco-conscious resorts, Tulum offers a balance of relaxation and adventure. Whether you're planning a romantic honeymoon, a family beach vacation, or a solo retreat, Tulum's charm will captivate you. Its laid-back atmosphere, clear turquoise waters, and lush tropical jungle create the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable vacation. 


 


Top Things to Do in Tulum 


Tulum is a playground for nature lovers, history buffs, and adventure seekers alike:



  • Visit the Tulum Ruins: Perched above the turquoise waters of the Caribbean, the Tulum Ruins are one of the most well-preserved ancient Mayan sites. Walk through this historical treasure and take in breathtaking views of the ocean while learning about the region's fascinating history.

  • Relax on Tulum’s Beaches: Tulum is famous for its pristine beaches, where powdery white sand meets crystal-clear waters. Spend the day at Playa Paraiso, one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, or explore quieter spots like Soliman Bay for a more peaceful experience.

  • Swim in Cenotes: Tulum is surrounded by cenotes—natural freshwater pools formed by ancient limestone caves. Whether you prefer a secluded, jungle-hidden cenote or a more accessible one like Gran Cenote, swimming in these crystal-clear waters is a must-do experience.

  • Explore Sian Ka’an Biosphere Reserve: For nature lovers, the Sian Ka’an Biosphere Reserve offers a unique opportunity to see Tulum’s diverse wildlife, including sea turtles, dolphins, and exotic birds. Take a boat ride through its canals or enjoy a guided eco-tour through the lush mangroves and coastal ecosystems.

  • Yoga and Wellness: Tulum is a global hotspot for wellness and yoga retreats. Spend your mornings meditating on the beach or practicing yoga in one of the many luxurious eco-resorts. With wellness being at the heart of Tulum’s offerings, it's the ideal place to reconnect with yourself.

Whether you’re looking for a luxury beachfront villa, an all-inclusive resort, or an eco-luxury retreat, Tulum offers something for every style. Stay at exclusive resorts like Coqui Coqui Tulum or Azulik, which focus on sustainability while offering high-end amenities and unique experiences. Many accommodations offer private pools, jungle settings, and beachfront views, ensuring your stay feels like a paradise within a paradise.

Tulum is an ideal destination for all kinds of travelers.

Best Time to Visit Tulum

Another fabulous trip!
Rey has booked several domestic and international trips for me over the years. Each time the experience was fantastic. Rey is not only a knowledgeable and experienced travel agent, he is patient with groups and always provides stellar customer service. The resorts are always fabulous and his recommendations on what to do when we arrive at our destinations make my vacations more enjoyable. I’ve counted on Rey to book fabulous vacations for over 10 years and he always delivers the best. I’ve always enjoyed the individual attention and care Rey provides his clients. He understands the apprehension that comes along with trying new places and is thorough and accommodating as a result. He’s also great at making suggestions on future vacations and I’ve never been disappointed when I follow his suggestions. Rey will remain my travel confidante for many years to come. He’s the best, hands down!

We have worked with Rey for many years and have always enjoyed the experience. Most of our travel has been river cruises in Europe but last year we did a trip to South Africa. Rey is very thoughtful, thorough and responsive.
