Upon my arrival in Cancun, what transportation service do you provide to Tulum and the return trip back to Cancun?

There are no transfers included on this trip, but we can organise a private transfer for you Cancun Airport to Playa Del Carmen - USD110.00 Tulum to Cancun Airport USD170.00

Please give me a price for me alone not sharing bedroom and or bathroom.

We've asked Tour Radar to quote you on the tour with a single supplement.

What do I need for visa and entry requirements?

It's the traveler's responsibility to ensure that all required documents for entry and exit are prepared prior to travel.

Is there a timeframe for booking this tour?

It is advisable to book at least a few weeks in advance to secure your spot and accommodations.

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?

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.

How much should I budget for tips during the tour?

Tipping is customary in Latin America, generally around 10% for services. For local guides, about $5-10 USD per day is suggested.

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.

Unfortunately we do not assist with flights and these need to be booked independently. You can extend your dates but we can only assist with onward accommodation - we can't book flights or activities once the tour has ended.

What do I do if I have special dietary requirements?

Please inform the operator of any dietary restrictions in advance so arrangements can be made.

Is travel insurance mandatory for this tour?

Yes, travel insurance is required for all participants. It must cover medical expenses, evacuation, and repatriation.

Do you provide airport transport from Tulum to airport on this trip?

We can offer a departure transfer from Tulum to the Cancun airport at an added cost of $150USD. Likewise, there are shuttle buses that operate from the Tulum bus station which can take you to the airport as well (ADO buses is the company if you do a google search).
