Here is a list of the top 5 places to see and things to do in the Riviera Maya (in no particular order, they are ALL amazing):
1. Ruins of Tulum
The city of Tulum is the only known archaeological site located by the sea. Tulum acted as a major port for Cobá, a large Mayan city.
There are over 60 well preserved structures can be found here including the Temple of Frescoes, a small shrine that marks a break in the barrier reef and the Castillo. This truly is a remarkable site saturated with history. A can’t miss!
2. Golf
Riviera Maya is home to many championship-style golf courses. Puerto Aventuras is definitely a step above the rest with its 36 hole golf course.
This unique course was designed by Thomas Lehman. Surrounded by lush tropical foliage and encounters with iguana, deer and a variety of tropical birds, this is truly a jungle gold course. Enjoy!
3. The Jungle Maya Expedition
Get ready for a real adventure! The Jungle Maya Expedition from Alltournative starts with a ride in an all-terrain vehicle that takes you to the Nohoch Nah Chich Cenote system.
Here you will be snorkeling into deep caverns exploring stalagmite and stalactite formations.
After some snorkeling, you hop back into the Unimog (4X4) and cross the jungle where you will see a variety of flora, fauna and animal prints! The journey takes you to Yax-muul, the most amazing natural swimming pool in the Mexican Caribbean for some more snorkeling.
A traditional Maya lunch awaits you on your return to the Rancho San Felipe.
