Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Cenotes Park Hidden Treasures, Carretera Tulum-Cancun km 115-116 Rancho la Teresita, Tulum 77780 Mexico
After pick you up in your hotel we drive you to our cheking point in Tulum before to star the tour to Sian Kaan
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve, Sian Ka'an Mexico
After hotel pickup in Playa del Carmen, it's about a 1-hour drive to Tulum where you will receive a briefing from your guide about the day's adventure ahead. Venture by truck into the UNESCO-protected Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve; you'll travel over rough roads for about 15 miles (25 km) until reaching Paso Lagartos where you will start the marine safari.
En route, make a stop at the Boca Paila bridge where the lagoon and the Caribbean Sea meet. From here you may be able to spot local species of crocodiles swimming in the surrounding water.
Once you arrive at Paso Lagartos, start your 3-hour boat trip. It is likely you will be able to observe wild dolphins, sea turtles, manatees, and different species of birds, all in their natural habitat. After this brush with nature, embark on a snorkeling activity (if sea conditions allow) then head to a natural pool at Punta Allen where you will be able to swim and relax — beer is provided.
Afterward, feast on a local lunch in Punta Allen village followed by some free time to explore the area before a transfer back to your hotel in Playa del Carmen
Duration: 9 hours

WONDERFUL GUIDE, drivers, AWESOME local boat captains! LOCATION BEAUTIFUL. But DO NOT BOOK THIS TRIP due to road conditions! CANCEL it if you have already booked. Why? The hard gravel road to get to Punta Allen is deep potholes for about 35 miles. It is dangerous for your spinal/back health to ride this long in the BACK of a truck with no shocks. Just ask your doctor if you doubt me! It is like riding in a wheel barrow over speed bumps rather fast for 35 miles, each way. 2-3 hours each way. It could ruin your whole vacation with pain, or cause long-term damage. SOLUTION: This trip is basically to a beautiful mangrove area. Take a Viator tour to a mangrove area that is closer to Tulum or not far off hardtop, or in a van with shock absorbers.although this could take 3 hours each way IF you go to Punta Allen. VIATOR SHOULD CHANGE THIS TRIP DUE TO BAD ROAD CONDITIONS. The excellent guide warned us beforehand the road was bad, but the problem is that HARD banging your spine for hours and hours in the back of a truck is truly a risk.
