FAQs about tours in Riviera Maya

What are the must-do tours in Riviera Maya?

What do you feel like doing on your trip to Riviera Maya? At Xplora we offer the best Riviera Maya tours for lovers of adventure, water experiences, archaeology and pure nature. But the one tour you should never miss on your first trip to Riviera Maya is the VIP Chichén Itzá + Xkokay Cenote + Valladolid

Do tours that include lunch have vegetarian, vegan or allergy-friendly options?

Are there vegetarian, vegan or allergy-friendly options?

Options depend on each tour. Some include vegetarian alternatives; if you need a vegan menu or have an allergy or intolerance, contact us before booking to check what’s possible for the activity you’re interested in.

What are the entry requirements for traveling to Riviera Maya from Spain?

To visit Riviera Maya you’ll need a valid passport, the Multiple Immigration Form (FMM), a customs declaration, a return ticket to Spain and a hotel reservation. Need more information? Check out our article Requirements for traveling to Riviera Maya (Mexico) from Spain and required documents.

How far in advance should I book Riviera Maya tours?

We recommend booking your Riviera Maya tours as early as possible so you don’t miss out. But if you love last-minute trips, you’ll need to book at least 48 hours in advance to join our tours.

Where can I exchange money in Riviera Maya?

The best place to exchange money is at an exchange office in Playa del Carmen or Tulum, where you’ll get the best rates. If you’d rather bring local currency from home, your bank is the best option. You can also always exchange money at the airport or at your hotel. We recommend paying for tours in euros and only exchanging some money for souvenirs, tips or extra expenses.

Should I use biodegradable sunscreen and insect repellent in Mexico?

Yes. Some places, such as Grupo Xcaret parks, are very strict about it. Mexico is also full of nature reserves where applying any product is prohibited, for example Isla Contoy or when swimming with whale sharks. We recommend applying these products before you’re picked up and only where it’s allowed.

Is it safe to travel to Riviera Maya?

Riviera Maya is a safe place for tourism, as it’s an international tourist hub and a major source of income for the country. Still, you should follow some tips to avoid trouble: keep an eye on your luggage at the airport, look after your belongings, don’t flash cash, etc.

What time do Riviera Maya tours depart?

Each tour page shows an estimated departure time. Keep in mind that pickup depends on where you’re staying, so we’ll confirm the exact time when you book.

Is it safe to buy a tour with a credit card?

Absolutely. Our website has a secure payment system that protects all your data, so you can book with complete confidence. We accept MasterCard, Visa and Maestro cards, as well as PayPal and bank transfer, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

When and how do I pay for Riviera Maya tours?

You pay for tours when you book on our website, by credit card, debit card or PayPal. Once you’ve completed your booking, you’ll receive a confirmation within 24 to 48 hours with all the details you need to enjoy your tour. If you have any questions, our team is here to help.

How much do Riviera Maya tours cost?

The price depends on the tour and the option you choose. Each tour page shows the rate, what’s included and any extra costs, such as fees payable at the destination. Check the activity you’re interested in for its price and availability.

How many days should I spend in Riviera Maya?

Riviera Maya has so much to offer for unique experiences on your trip. We recommend at least a week, so you can unplug from everyday life, make new memories and immerse yourself in Mexican culture.

What documents should I bring on Riviera Maya tours?

We recommend bringing a photocopy of your passport and leaving the original safely at your hotel.

How do I get to Riviera Maya from Spain?

The Mexican Caribbean is a one-of-a-kind destination you can’t miss. Check out our guide Traveling from Spain to Riviera Maya: how can I get there?   where the Xplora team sums up all the ways to get to Riviera Maya.

What’s the weather usually like in Riviera Maya?

Riviera Maya is known for its warm, mild weather all year round, although the dry season from December to April is the best time to go, with less chance of rain.

What are the power outlets like in Mexico?

Outlets are 110V, with the same two-prong plugs used in the US. If your devices use a different plug, you’ll need an adapter, which you can buy before your trip, at the airport or at your hotel.

What happens if a Riviera Maya tour has to be canceled due to weather?

All activities are subject to weather conditions. This applies especially to sea activities: if they’re canceled due to storms or rain, the decision is made by the port authority, and we’ll either reschedule your tour or refund it.
Weather may also affect certain parts of an activity. In that case no refund is possible, since any activity canceled or changed on the day of the tour is for the customer’s safety.

How big are the groups?

Groups are usually small so you can make the most of the experience, although it depends on the tour. If you prefer, you can also enjoy a private tour and experience the tour with just your family or friends.

How and when can you contact us?

We’re here to help before, during and after your trip. Feel free to write to us at any time through our contact form, by email at infotours@xplorariviera.com or by calling (+34) 670 098 836 from Spain or (+52) 998 126 12 69 from Mexico.

Contratamos con ellos las excursiones a Isla Mujeres e Isla Contoy, la de Chichén Itzá, Valladolid y cenote de Noolha, y también la de quads con cenotes, y la verdad es que todo fue suuuper bien. Lo pasamos genial en todas, cada una tenía algo diferente y nos llevamos muy buenos recuerdos. Además, estaba todo muy bien organizado y el trato fue muy cercano, así que estuvimos muy a gusto. Nos quedamos muy contentos de haberlas reservado con ellos. ¡Si volvemos a Riviera Maya, repetimos seguro!

We had the best time with this company! From the beginning the communication was so great and they made it so easy to book and listened to our needs as we had 16 people ( four families). Russel and his team took such great care of us on the tour - the ATV ride was so fun and the cenotes were amazing! What was so great is they made it a private tour for our group and we felt it was so personalized. They even made us some food at the end of our tour which was a nice unexpected surprise! We would do this again in a heart beat- it was the highlight of our trip and the coolest cenote experience without all the crowds. Thank you Jesus(Sos) for helping arrange the tour for us and Russell, Sam and the rest of the guides for an incredible day!

¡Experiencia de 10 para nuestro grupo de amigos! Viajamos un grupo de 7 amigos a México y decidimos organizar todas nuestras excursiones con Xplora Riviera. No pudimos haber tomado mejor decisión. Desde el primer momento en que nos pusimos en contacto para planificar el itinerario, la atención, la cercania y la rapidez para resolver cualquier duda fueron impecables. Organizar un viaje para tanta gente no siempre es facil, pero ellos nos lo pusieron facilisimo y todo estuvo pertectamente coordinado de principio a fin. Las excursiones súper completas, puntualidad absoluta en las recogidas, grupos muy bien organizados y guias fantasticos que hicieron que cada día fuera divertidísimo e inolvidable. Nos cuidaron muchísimo durante todo el viaje. Relación calidad-precio inmejorable. Sin duda, si volvemos a México repetiremos con ellos y los recomendamos al 100% a cualquiera que viaje a la zona. ¡Muchisimas gracias por hacer de nuestras vacaciones una experiencia genial!

Hemos reservado muchas de las excursiones de nuestro viaje a México con ellos y sin duda destacaría la buena atención. Hemos tenido un par de malentendidos con las compañías allá, y ellos lo solucionaron al momento. Destaco la amabilidad, buen rollo, cercanía y acompañamiento de Suso. Gracias por unas experiencias inolvidables!
