"Tulum + Playa del Carmen" Tour
"Tulum + Playa del Carmen" Tour
Description
Tulum is the site of a pre-Columbian Mayan walled city which served as a major port for Coba, in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo. Tulum was one of the last cities built and inhabited by the Maya; it was at its height between the 13th and 15th centuries and managed to survive about 70 years after the Spanish began occupying Mexico. Old World diseases brought by the Spanish settlers appear to have resulted in very high fatalities, disrupting the society and eventually causing the city to be abandoned. One of the best-preserved coastal Maya sites, Tulum is today a popular site for tourists.
Tulum archaeological site is almost compact compared with many other Maya sites in the vicinity, and is one of the best-preserved coastal Maya sites. Its proximity to the modern tourism developments along the Mexican Caribbean coastline and its short distance from Cancún and the surrounding "Riviera Maya" has made it a popular Maya tourist site in the Yucatán. The Tulum ruins are the third most-visited archaeological site in Mexico, after Teotihuacan and Chichen Itza. In addition, a large number of cenotes are located in the Tulum area such as Maya Blue, Naharon, Temple of Doom, Tortuga, Vacaha, Grand Cenote, Abejas, Nohoch Kiin and Carwash cenotes and cave systems.
Tulum is a wonderful place, ideal for nature lovers, that immerses you in the Mayan culture and beaches, of unparalleled beauty, known to many for having the best beaches in Mexico and Central America. It has archeological zones aesthetically unparalleled archeological zones, cenotes, Caribbean Sea, turquoise beaches, white sand, underground rivers, the Great Mesoamerican Reef and the Sian Ka’an biosphere reserve, known as the World Heritage Site for its biological diversity.
