The 10 Best Self-Guided Tours & Rentals in Yucatan Peninsula, Yucatan Peninsula

June 6, 2021 Sheron Bogner

Hidden gems of Yucatan, such as Tulum, Akumal, Chetumal, Chichen Itza and Merida, offer an authentic taste of Mexico. Akumal and more Caribbean-style Chetumal, near the Belize border, deliver delectable white-sand beaches and great snorkelling. Merida, Chichen Itza and Tulum, with their ancient ruins, offer a passage into the Yucatanâs native history. Nature lovers can jungle trek and swim in subterranean sinkholes filled with crystal-clear water. Bike around the ruins and hop between towns in colectivo vans.

We had a great time on this adventure! This was our first time going to a cenote and it was amazing. Christian met us there on time. We are experienced paddle boarders so we got on the water quick. Christian gave us a lot of history of the area and explained cenotes to us. We were the only ones there, it was awesome. I will admit, I was stressed when the crocodile wasn’t in his usual spot. I was fearful that he was going to suddenly appear. But we never saw him. Christian let us go at our own pace. We stopped and snorkeled and took pictures for a while and then continued on. We loved snorkeling through the mangrove tree’s. That was incredibly beautiful. Overall it was a great time! I would highly recommend it.

The best way to get around and explore this exciting, booming Caribbean beach town in the heart of the Riviera Maya. Instead of crawling around in the crazy city traffic more and more locals and visitors of Playa Del Carmen are choosing to hop on beach cruisers and glide around town with a smile and get a little exercise.

We stay in Playa del Carmen Centro from Feb 10th-Feb 14th 2020 and we wanted to rent a bike for a day. While searching for options, I found this local entreprise. 1. Communication was great between me and the owner / employee. 2. Great deal for 1day/rental compare to other companies. They have great deals for long rental and they deliver to your door if needed (keep that in mind :). 3. Bikes were in great condition. 4. And last but not least, Roberto (the employee) provided us with EXCELLENT references for food and beaches locations (locals restaurants and spots). We went to ALL of his recommandations and we were really amazed. Should you need to rent a bike, PLEASE GO THERE!!!! We had to walk 40min from our AirBnB to get there (it was our choice to do so) but it was TOTALLY worth it. Roberto's excellent customer service enhanced our trip in Playa Del Carmen. PLUS - it feels good to help local entreprise to grow. Keep up the great work guys! You are AWESOME!

Victor’s tour was absolutely amazing! He’s super passionate about the wildlife, natural history, and indigenous cultures of the area and put 110% into our personalized, private tour. He showed us birds and explained things about Mayan ruins that we never would have seen or known on our own or with a less knowledgeable guide. Oh, and he even snapped some awesome photos of us while we were on the tour! Thank you, Victor!

We had a wonderful time in Bacalar with our fantastic guide Elliot. It was very windy that day so we decided to not kayak and instead used tubes and went swimming, the water was beautiful shades of blue and greens. The food and drinks were awesome and Elliot was full of knowledge and made our time there an awesome experience. Please tell Elliot if he ever gets to NY to look up Bob and Kim, also Brent and Brenda, you are more than welcome into our homes.
