Tulum Ruins Tour & Xel-Ha Eco-Waterpark - Intro

Discover the history and beautiful nature of the Riviera Maya with a visit to Tulum Ruins, the only local archaeological area with views of the sea, and Xel-Ha Park, a natural aquarium ideal for snorkelling in crystal-clear creeks and lagoons.

Tulum Ruins Tour & Xel-Ha Eco-Waterpark – Full Details

Tulum Ruins are perched high on a clifftop with the glittering Caribbean Sea as a backdrop.

This one-of-a-kind archaeological site dates back to the 12th century when it was one of the few Mayan trading ports still inhabited before the arrival of the Spaniards.

Whilst at Tulum Ruins, enjoy a guided tour and learn more of the history of the Mayans. Your experienced guide will point out all the historically significant buildings at the site, including the Temple of Masks and castle.

Xel-Ha Park is your next destination, a natural aquatic eco-water park said to be so beautiful it was created by the Mayan Gods themselves!

Your ticket to Xel-Ha Park is all-inclusive which means all you have to worry about is having the time of your life!

Enjoy swimming in the crystal clear lagoons and creeks, and visit natural wells and grottoes fed by ancient underground rivers which flow out to the azure-blue Caribbean Sea.

Swim, scuba or explore the Xel-Ha Park marine-world by snorkel, where you’ll come face to face with angel fish, curious rays and all manner of underwater flora and fauna.

Whilst at Xel-Ha, you’ll visit two underwater grottos, the Cenote Paraiso and Cenote Aventura. And if you’re up for a challenge, head to the “brave stone” and see how you fare!
