It's about 2hrs to Tulum from cancun it's an air conditioned coach with a toilet l, we had 10 people on the coach and when we got to Tulum we were then put into groups of english speaking so we did have quite a few people by the time we got into Tulum. Tulum itself is beautiful and it's quite small so it's easy to get around but you can't get to close to anything as it's all roped off. Our guide very knowledgeable and explained the history of tulum very well. you get to walk around the ruins for about half hour then you have to get back to the coach where you have lunch, aslong as you get your lunch ordered you can eat this on the coach to Coba. Coba is again stunning but it is a 2km walk from the entrance to get there there are bikes which you can hire and also locals will bike you up to the temple for a minimal fee. Unfortunately you cant climb the temple due to it needing restoring. The cenote is beautiful crystal clear waters there's 2 of them 1 is a cave the other is outside

Excellent experience! Our tour guide, Edwin, was fabulous. We felt there was just enough time at each location, with some extra time in Tulum for lunch. It was quite a long day (~13 hours) but this was expected given the distance of the various sites from Cancun; fortunately, the bus was very comfortable. We overall thought it was great value and and great way to see three amazing sites in one day. The highlight was probably Tulum but the cenotes were also gorgeous; we got to visit and swim in two very different cenotes at the same location, which was pretty amazing.

Rey and Noe/Ivan were great, but we unfortunately had a few people in our group that left the trip without informing anyone and we had to sit around and wait for a while. We had about 75 minutes at Tulum and then a 30 minute lunch. We had 1 hour at Coba and 1 hour at the cenotes. The transportation home was slightly disorganized and we had to change from our bus to a van back to another bus, but at least we didn't have to wait for anyone. Overall it was a good tour.
