Family vacations in the Riviera Maya are perfect for enjoying the sea breeze and the sun. Above all, it's the ideal opportunity to get physically active! Tulum and Playa del Carmen have all kinds of activities to disconnect from the routine and focus on quality time and physical activity with our family.
These are some of our favorite ideas to enjoy with the whole family, including our little ones!
Tour at Río Secreto
The scenery offered by Río Secret is unique and mystical. Witness the stalactites and stalagmites up close as you amaze yourself with the cenote's ancestral nature. Usually, the tour guide will explain the importance of taking care of the environment.
This tour is appropriate for all ages and provides everything you need for a safe and comfortable experience.
Spend the day at Xenses
Xenses is an exhilarating interactive park that will play with your five senses. Among its main attractions are “El Pueblo,” which defies gravity, the “Bird Flight” on a zip line, and the slide that descends to a cave inspired by the region's cenotes.
Its most unique attraction is the “Path of Feeling,” which consists of a tour in a controlled environment but entirely in the dark, in which you will experience the ecosystems with all your senses except sight.
Sanctuary for monkeys and rescued animals in Akumal
In Akumal, you will find this sanctuary with the noble mission to house animals found in vulnerable conditions.
The sanctuary offers educational tours with certified guides. The purpose of these tours is to get to know the stories of the rescued species as the family learns about environmental education and raises awareness for the care and respect towards wildlife.
Activities to boost adrenaline
We recommend guided tours in all-terrain vehicles through the Mayan jungle if you are looking for action-filled activities. Usually, these tours include activities such as ziplining and bathing in a cenote to cool off after all the adrenaline rush.
Most of these tours offer transportation and lunch, which is perfect after a day of demanding physical activity.
Bike ride in Tulum
This is another way to explore the landscape of the Mayan jungle. If you want a more relaxed and contemplative option, then a bike tour is for you.
In Tulum, you can find guided bike tours with different routes. Choose your favorite! Do you want to visit the archaeological zone? Or maybe explore different cenotes? Most of these tours also offer lunch to replenish the energy invested and to taste the local cuisine.
