      TravelerWritten April 2026

      If I were to want to visit Mexico City for a few days, would you be able to help me arrange to get there?

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten April 2026

      Our Sat, 11 Jul - Sat, 18 Jul departure is currently on sale for $1317.00 USD per person (for twin-share). Should you wish to request the single supplement, it would be an additional $579.00 USD for that service. Bringing the total around: $1896.00 USD.

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten April 2026

      We can assist with an arrival transfer from Cancun Airport to Playa del Carmen Hotel at an additional cost of $110.00 USD.

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten April 2026

      Unfortunately, we do not have a supplier we can recommend in Mexico City; therefore, you will need to arrange that independently. In addition to this, we are unable to assist with transfers to Mexico City.

      Martha

      TravelerWritten April 2026

      Since it is optional, how do we secure a tour of Uxmal? In addition are the Cenote visit and the Anthropology visit a part of the trip to Uxmal? Or do they occur separately?

    • M

      Martha

      TravelerWritten April 2026

      Since we stop in Tulum, how do we get to Cozumel? Is there a bus that we could take to the Cozumel airport on the 18th?

    • M

      Martha

      TravelerWritten April 2026

      How do we get to the Cancun airport?

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten April 2026

      The Uxmal visit is an optional activity that can be arranged locally with your CEO during the tour. The cenote and anthropology visits are separate experiences and not included in the Uxmal excursion.

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten April 2026

      For travel from Tulum to Cozumel, the usual route is to take a bus or private transfer to Playa del Carmen, then a ferry to Cozumel, as there is no direct bus to the island.

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten April 2026

      For your departure, we can arrange a transfer from Tulum to Cancun Airport. Current pricing is approximately USD 170 for 1 traveller.

    Asked on January 26th, 2025

    I am very interested to do the "highlights of the yucatan" tour. Unfortunately i have to travel back to switzerland on friday 25th from Mexico City. So i would prefer to leave Mérida and travel to back to CDMX on thursday 24th. Is it possible that i book this tour and get a discount for the 2 days that i have to leave earlier? Or if not, can you recommend me a similar tour that ends earlier?

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten January 2025

      With regards to the trip you are interested in for Highlights of the Yucatan, sadly we do not have anything similar around the same dates. If you were to book this trip and had to leave earlier, please note no discounts / refunds / credit will be given for services not used as part of the tour and it will be your own responsibility to get back to the airport from where the group is. Any additional costs will be for your own account.

    We would like to explore the highlights of Yucatan on October 4, 2025, but we plan to return only on October 16, 2025. What alternatives do you have for an extended stay? Would it be possible to fly business class? What would the cost be? The flights would depart from ZRH.
