Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

High atop a cliff overlooking the sparkling Caribbean, the Maya ruins of Tulum’s ancient walled city have been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is the only seaside Maya archaeological site in Mexico, providing visitors with unusual photo opportunities. The significance of Tulum is apparent by the convergence of roads coming from surrounding Maya communities, even today. Highlights include the “castle,” temple frescoes, and God of the Wind Temple. Below the cliffside ruins, travelers will find Paradise Beach, one of the area’s biggest and most spectacular Riviera Maya white sand beaches. The ruins are 15 minutes outside Tulum proper and can be reached by taxi, colectivo, bike, or car.
