WHAT TO EXPECT
Tulum Express from Playa del Carmen is our ruins-only private experience. Your hotel, Tulum, then your hotel again. It is designed for travelers with an evening celebration, an appointment or simply a preference for a shorter, focused day.
Explore the archaeological site above the Caribbean with your private guide. Spend time among the ruins and take in the coastal views, then return directly to your hotel. This visit is focused on the archaeological site.
Enjoy the same private vehicles and personal attention offered on our regular Tulum tour. We choose the vehicle for your party and confirm the guide and pickup personally. Express means a focused itinerary, not faster driving or a guaranteed return time.
Allow approximately 4 hours 30 minutes from Playa del Carmen. The sample schedule below divides the day into the outward drive, archaeological visit and return.
