At Nah Experience, we’ve handpicked the best tours to help you discover the most authentic, breathtaking, and unforgettable sides of the Mexican Caribbean. Whether you’re into adventure, culture, wildlife, or relaxation, there’s something here just for you.
Let’s find your perfect match:

Cobá Ruins, Mayan Family Lunch & Punta Laguna Reserve
Mayan Culture, Wildlife & Jungle Adventure
This all-in-one tour is perfect for travelers looking to connect with ancient history, nature, and local communities. Explore the majestic Cobá ruins by bike or “Mayan taxi” (a tricycle pedaled by a local guide). Then, venture into the jungle to visit two hidden cenotes, zipline over the lagoon, and paddle a canoe through the reserve.
A highlight of this experience is enjoying a homemade meal with a real Mayan family – a warm and authentic cultural moment.

Holbox Island
Hidden Paradise with Turquoise Waters and White Sand
If you’re dreaming of postcard-perfect beaches and peaceful vibes, Holbox is your place. This laid-back island is known for its pristine shores, calm waters, and untouched nature. The tour includes a visit to Yalahau Lagoon, where you can take a refreshing dip, and other serene natural spots away from the crowds.
A beautiful escape for couples and families looking to unwind.

Sian Ka’an Deluxe Tour
Wildlife, Snorkeling & Mangroves in a Protected Biosphere
Nature lovers and eco-travelers, this one’s for you. Explore the Sian Ka’an Biosphere by boat, spotting dolphins, sea turtles, exotic birds, and – if you’re lucky – manatees in their natural habitat. Snorkel along a pristine reef and navigate peaceful mangrove canals.
Our deluxe version skips the bumpy long road (only 15–25 minutes in our private van), giving you more time in nature and less time in transit.

Río Lagartos, Pink Lakes & Ek Balam Ruins
Birdwatching, Flamingos & Ancient Mayan Secrets
A dream tour for photographers and wildlife enthusiasts. See wild flamingos and crocodiles in the Río Lagartos reserve, cruise past the vibrant pink waters of Las Coloradas, and explore the less-visited but stunning Ek Balam ruins hidden in the jungle.
This combination of nature and archaeology offers one of the most unique experiences in Yucatán.

Tulum Ruins & Snorkeling with Sea Turtles in Akumal
History Meets Marine Life
Explore the famous cliffside ruins of Tulum with breathtaking views over the Caribbean Sea. Afterward, head to the calm bay of Akumal to snorkel with wild sea turtles in their natural habitat.

Chichén Itzá, Cenote Swim & Valladolid
A Journey Through Ancient Wonders and Colonial Charm

Bacalar Lagoon
The Lagoon of Seven Colors, Pirate Canal & Hidden Cenotes
Bacalar is a paradise for travelers seeking stunning scenery and peaceful vibes. Though it’s a bit farther, the destination is well worth it.
