The experience

The Story Behind This Tour

The journey from Cancun airport to Tulum is about 130km south on Highway 307 — one of the more straightforward drives in Mexico. How you do it sets the tone for everything that follows.

The shuttle bus option means waiting for other passengers, multiple stops in Playa del Carmen, and arriving tired, slightly disoriented and having already spent time dealing with strangers you didn't choose to travel with.

We meet you in arrivals with your name on a board. Your driver speaks English. The vehicle is air conditioned. Cold water is provided. You go directly to your hotel. If your flight is delayed, we monitor it and adjust with no extra charge.

We also do the return journey — Tulum to Cancun airport. Book both directions at the same time for a combined discount. Your Tulum trip starts well and ends cleanly.

"Start your trip properly. The first two hours matter more than most people realise."
