Top 10 Budget-friendly Things to do in Tulum, Quintana Roo

January 19, 2022 Janean Rudisill

Mayan ruins tower over the sea in Tulum. The formerly walled city was one of the last to be built by the Mayans, and its archaeological sites are incredibly well preserved. Take a break from the beach to visit El Castillo, the Temple of the Frescoes, and the Temple of the Descending God. Explore an underground river under a canopy of stalactites in the sacred caverns of LabnaHa Eco Park, or dive into Cenote Dos Ojos to snorkel inside of caves in the middle of a forest.

Cenotes Sac Actun

Underground water paradise in the Riviera Maya, this visit will certainly be a unique experience like no other, mystical and extreme, you can snorkel or dive in the cavern full of formations.

Reviewed By StefR - Brooklyn, United States

After reading about so many cenotes, I was a bit overwhelmed as to which to choose. So we let our tour guide make this recommendation. It just so happened he had worked as a guide at this cenote for several years before becoming a tour guide so we just got lucky. This cenote is amazing! After parking and picking up lifejackets, we headed down the stairs and into the mouth of the cave. Our guide didn't really describe what we were about to do so it was a bit of a surprise to find such a huge cave system before us as we swam around. He knew his way around and we had such a great time seeing this natural wonder. We were there for 2 hours before seeing another soul. We had the whole place to ourselves for almost the entire time. There seemed to be endless tunnels and caves to explore so we were very happy to have a guide as we would have gotten lost very easily. Can't recommend this site enough! Definitely get a guide, bring a waterproof camera (or waterproof case for your phone) and enjoy!

Tulum Tower

You will arrive at our lobby bar where we get ready, store your personal belongings in our lockers, register and enjoy a delicious margarita or piña colada. After a few minutes we went to sit in our revolving gondola where 16 people can fit, we fasten our seatbelts and fly! We climb 35 meters high very slowly, slowly turning 360 degrees, so that everyone can enjoy a moving and unique view. Being upstairs my clients receive very important and interesting information about the Mayan civilization and the region. Then we will take some spectacular photographs, after (30) thirty minutes we go down very slowly. Finally, we went through our souvenir and photography shop. The duration of the experience is (30) thirty minutes, and it is offered in Spanish.

Reviewed By LuisLQ - Monterrey, Mexico

First time getting on this tower; it goes 118 ft up and you spend about 10 minutes up top, taking in the view of the whole area; definitely worth the price, about 8 USD per person; the view is excellent; great service from Salvador, the tower operator; will definitely come again.
