Mid-March trip from Canada - In Playa del Carmen from Alberta Canada.
We did the tour with Salvador and I loved it. Definitely a highlight of our Mexico trip.
I do not speak any Spanish and I'd highly recommend the tour to any English speaking person. Salvador had perfect English, was friendly and happy to answer any questions we had!

Great value and action packed - Our guide Salvador and driver Victor were amazing. Salvador was very informative and clearly knew the area and history well. The trip was very full, you get a lot of value. We visited Coba and rode bikes through the ruins, then went to Punta Laguna and saw spider monkeys, ziplined and rowed canyons, next was a visit to a cenote, then a meal and tour of an animal rehabilitation center for wild animals. It was a great trip!

Fantastic experience! - This was one of the best experiences we’ve had on a holiday. To start with, our tour guide Marco and our driver Samuel were friendly, informative and overall excellent hosts. All of the activities included were everything we hoped for and a great way to explore the beauty of Mexico and the Mayan history. Our highlight was the lunch at Nojoch Keej, with its beautiful surroundings, warming family and tasty food. We would highly recommend México Kan Tours, specifically with Marco and Samuel!

Amazing authentic and exciting day - The tour was absolutely amazing. The content is perfect if you are a "normal" fit person. Lots of activities but not too much that we didn't have time to breath. Seeing all the local spots, the mayan families that work hard to preserve nature, was amazing. Observing the monkeys from a distance was exciting. Our guide, Lily, was very kind and fun, she explained everything well and answered all our questions. I also had a leg injury, I could do all of the activities but I had to be very careful where I stepped. She kept checking in with me and supporting me on the uneven paths. Overall: book this, it's authentic and not too touristy.

Alondra, our tour guide was so knowledgeable and I learned so much about he rich Mayan culture and had a great time along the way. What a great tour to experience some of what Tulum has to offer all in one day. Thanks Alondra for taking such good care of our family.

A fun day learning about the Mayans and visiting a cenote - Came back of this tour knowing more about the Mayans, trying their food, getting to know their communities and culture. The Cenote this tour included felt very private! It was basically just me and my siblings in the cenote with our guide, Marco, who even swam (and dove) with us. He was fun to be with — like a local friend taking us around town. I could tell a lot of the Mayan locals really liked him too. Kudos to our driver carlos too who was very friendly and helpful all throughout!
