Get ready for a full-day tour of Tulum and Akumal. You'll visit ancient Mayan ruins in Tulum perched above the Caribbean Sea, then snorkel with sea turtles in Akumal Bay. Then, take part in a traditional Mayan ceremony led by a local shaman – an authentic spiritual ritual that connects you with ancient customs – before tucking into a buffet lunch. Later, cool off with a dip in a couple of freshwater cenotes. These natural pools were believed by the Mayans to be portals to the underworld.

We didn’t realise the full scale of swimming involved with the turtles. Got by but could do with being more descriptive
