Reliable, Fun and Interesting: All Inclusive Tulum and Coba for the family! - We move to Playa del Carmen and stayed near the beach. It was fun and interesting to book this great activity, all inclusive, reliable and well organized. Tulum and Coba sites were astonishing! The lunch time was right on time, we were starving. Be prepared for a day full of soft action. Very recommended!

Two thumbs up to this great tour! We spend an exciting day! - It was a long but interesting day, and we experienced the most exciting places near Cancun. Our visit to Tulum, Coba and the cenote was perfectly guided, and we were attended to by the best, Miguel. We feel so lucky to have him tell and explain each detail during our trip.
It's a long day of activity, but it is worth it. Ask for Miguel if you book this tour.
(Thumbs up) Recommended!

A perfect mix of Ancient places in a single tour! - This experience welcomed us at its best. We were staying in Cancun and booked this activity to finally discover the Mayan mysteries. It's curious since the Riviera Maya is not located in the Yucatan, which is something that our guide explained to us. So the route for this amazing tour to Tulum and Coba was through Quintane Ro.
We walked through the jungle in Coba, visited a cenote for the first time, and explored Tulum ruins. The stop at Playa del Carmen was the perfect mix for us.
Excellent attention and service; it is worth every penny. Recommended!

Tulum, Coba & Cenote, the best experience!!! - When coming to Cancun we never thought this was going to be a cultural-historical journey, but after checking deeply, there are so many interesting things in the Yucatan that time's not enough to visit them all. Tulum is a splendid place, far from the ruins, it is also the view and how Mayans dominate the seas from that point. Coba has this tallest pyramid from the Mexican Mayan cities. Bring some boots, sometimes it gets muddy.
We enjoyed the Cenote, the food. 10 out of 10 for the excursion in short. Excellent organization and staf!

Full-day Adventure, Amazing Combo in Riviera Maya!!! - Get ready for an all-day tour, but it will be worth it in every way. We end up exhausted. This activity transports you to a movie adventure. It's too much information, so much to learn. Our respect and thanks to the Tourballoon Travel team, as they have very capable guides and provide first-class service. Tulum with its incredible panoramic view of the Caribbean Sea, Coba with its colossal pyramid, exquisite Mexican food and the cenote, what a great combination!

Tulum and Coba the idea complement after Chichen Itza! - My wife and I took this activity, we don't wanted to leave Cancun without visiting all this fantastic sites. Grandma stayed with the kids at the hotel so that we could embark on our adventure to learn a little more about the great Mayan heritage. The weather was perfect even when we saw that it was going to be raining, temperature was suitable for this. Visiting Tulum and Coba is different, Tulum is a Mayan ruins site in front of the beautiful Caribbean sea, Coba is hidden in the jungle and has the tallest pyramid in Mexico. Architecture styles have creative variations.
Cenote, drinks and food, completed this great package. We loved it!
A big "abrazo al amigo" Daniel our guide, we even made friends with him.

Riviera Maya Adventure with a touch of taste! - We visited the Riviera Maya on this awesome tour, which includes everything for a reasonable price. They are a pro team with years of experience; I asked our guide, Carlos, who is, by the way, a very charismatic guy.
We were picked up early in the morning on time. The customer service agent Maru, was very attentive and assisted us until we were on the bus. That was so kind of her. They use comfortable new buses with an open bar with sodas, water and beer. The food was yummy; my wife and I repeated the "Taco de Cochenita". The facilities in the restaurant are clean and good-looking.
The cenote was different in form from the other cenotes (four) we have visited before. This one has a platform, so you can enter by walking to the edge of the sinkhole. We had lots of fun!
Tulum and Coba were the "cherry on the top." We felt so excited being there and learning about the Mayans. We were amazed that this civilization was so advanced in knowledge and technology. Later, I even bought a book about the Mayan History. I fell in love with such civilization.
Overall, we strongly recommend Tourballoon Travel for this tour!

Tulum, Cenote and Coba, an explosive combo! - Since the first archaeological experience was kind of wet because of the weather, we decided to pick another great hit visiting Tulum, Coba and Cenote in the Riviera Maya. The weather was humid and the temperature not as high as the previous days. We learned that in this area of the Caribbean the weather predictions are not so accurate, so the best thing was to venture out and leave without thinking about it.
This time we had the most radical photos and dry (not muddy) terrains. To be in the high ground in Tulum and watch the sea landscape was unique. We visited also Coba which is a funny adventure. You have to take bicycles or tricycles guided by local natives, they take you to the heart of the ruins through the jungle. There you can find the main pyramid which they say is the tallest of al in this region of Mexico. Unfortunately they no longer allow climbing on it. Even if was possible, I wouldn't have gotten on :)
Food and drinks are OK, you have all you can drink on board and all you can eat at the restaurant.
I really recommend this tour, it has a good quality and it is really affordable.

An archaeologist in the right places! - My wife is an archaeologist, we're from LA, so you can imagine how amazing this experiences were. We went to Egypt the last year, this time we came to Cancun to visit many amazing ancient places (Chichen Itza, Tulum, Coba, Uxmal, Ek Balam) in two days! We took a lot of photos and experienced firsthand what was once a great city full of life and Mayan inhabitants, with all its commercial activity, politics and customs. This was our best experience by far in many time. We chose right by going with Tourballoon Travel. Excellent agency!
