Tulum is one of the most important archaeological zones in the state of Quintana Roo, since it is the only site that faces the Caribbean Sea. In ancient times it had the name of Zamá that means dawn, its current name, Tulum, means "enclosure or wall". For the Mayans, this city was the main center of sea and land commerce in the area. Nowadays, it captivates everyone who visits it. This Mayan city was built on a cliff from which you can see the turquoise tones of the Caribbean Sea in all its splendor.
It has more than 60 restored temples, El Castillo is the main building of the archaeological zone of Tulum, which is the most photographed site in the Riviera Maya, due to its peculiar location on the cliff. The Mayan city is surrounded by walls, each one symbolizing one of the elements: earth, water, air and fire. The reef in front of the coast forms the fourth wall and which made Tulum practically inaccessible.
Hello everyone! Thanks for stopping by and watching my latest video. What tips do you have about visiting ruins in Mexico?
These are so useful, I will re watch this video if we get to Tulum. Avoiding Sundays is a great tip, it’s nice that locals get in for free but good to know to avoid crowds. Oh no the mosquitoes love me, maybe we won’t visit after all 😅
Great video! I can't believe you got lost!
Ha - I have a different memory of the events.
Wow awesome and very good tips for Tulum visits, would love to join you one day
Thanks so much! It's a lovely place.
This is actually very helpful to watch because we're actually going to Tulum in 3 days! Thanks for the awesome tips, Sarah! We can't wait for Tulum, especially for the archaeological zones!
The great place to visit the tour 💚💚👍👍i see many people came good luck with good business!!!
Great video guys, very informative - I love how you didn't miss out any details, things like water and sun protection seem obvious but they're so easy to forget! 😊 It looks so beautiful there... at this point in our winter season we've forgotten what lush, green grass looks like (everything is white here). 🇨🇦😊
We actually didn't have to pay for parking, but we had a good walk in, which got us nice & sweaty before even entering Tulum, lol! We did not know you can use the ticket to get into another ecological site the same day. Breathable clothes, so key!! We couldn't swim when we were there; they were doing some construction. We had our guide in Guatemala, and WOW, did that enhance our experiences there--learning so much!
Great tips! Especially the one to not cross the barrier! Its so important to respect places when you're visiting them. Loved that you included that tip
I agree - if people can't follow that simple rule it could ruin the opportunity for others to visit in future.
I have added Tulum to my wanderlust list and now saving this video for all essential tips. I mostly have an allergy to sunrays and so it is a great tip to carry hats. Buying tickets from reputable source is also big advice as sometimes people get duped to many local fraud agents.
That's quite a detailed and good information, Sara. Very helpful. The entrance through the small tunnel was good.
Thanks so much!
Great tips Sara! Especially about bringing water. Things like that can be so easy to forget and somewhat dangerous if you do. Good to know that you can swim as well. Thanks for sharing your insights!
Happy to share! Yes water was so essential there. We could have drank much more than we brought too, so we were rationing it 😅
Once again, gaining so much knowledge from your incredibly comprehensive videos. Appreciate your work so much as I'm planning my first vacation with my daughter. Thank you!
Glad it could be helpful!
Hey Sara this video is full of great tips! I like that your tour was guided, but also allowed you to explore on your own.
The water tip is soo important 💦 especially on a hot day. I would have expected there to be water available.
Oooh and the swimsuit tip is great too! I would sure be interested in spending some time on the beach.
Great tips here. Good to know specifically about the entrance. Dealt with something similar in Cairo with the Giza Pyramids. A very beautiful place. Love the ruins. Sigh people and Instagram photos are ridiculous. Loved the video.
Thank you for the tips! We will definitely need to not go on a Sunday. We will plan around that when we go there. Thank you sharing :)
Thanks you for sharing all the tips. Very informative and useful. And this place is also beautiful and worth paying a visit!
Thanks - I definitely recommend a visit here for people in the area.
Amazing tips! We will make sure not to make park visits on Sundays. In Egypt they make you buy separate tickets for filming as well. I'll watch this again before our trip to Tulum!
Great video, wanted to visit Tulum for a long time and Mexico in general, very useful
Thanks so much - hope you get to visit.
Thank you so much!! That was and excellent and informative video!
Glad you found it helpful 👌
Interesting video about the Tulum Ruins. I liked the helpful tips for visitors of this unique place.
Thanks very much
Very helpful and your calm voice make it even better.Fantastic video and very helpful.
Thanks so much, appreciate it.
Great video. I went to the ruines this summer. It was hot hot hot every tip is right on point!
Thanks so much, I'd love to go back at a cooler time of year
Great video Sarah, you do such a great job at tips. Guided tours are such a great idea, and you are so right they always enhance a visit and having someone share Myan history would have been fascinating.
Thank you! I really enjoy guided tours, they aren't for everyone but it's my preference - and then exploring on my own after I know what I'm looking at.
@@TheAverageTourist two peas in a pod as far as that goes 👍🏻😌😌
Great tips! Comfortable shoes are a must! And breathable clothing is so important. Stay behind the line! We really enjoyed the ruins but it got so hot 🥵. We also had the seaweed problem but what can you do! Thanks for sharing!
Ah yes, the infamous seaweed! Not much to do about that unfortunately and hard to plan a better time to visit. But wow the heat - it really gets you there.
Excellent video 👍🍁🙏🏽
Thanks!
Thank you for sharing with us, great information definitely to saved for future travel. full support from us to you .
Please take care. Roman & Fizah
Don't rent at DK Tulum La Veleta especially from Sol/Andrea. La Veleta is surrounded by garbage, potholes, and constant construction from 8 until 6 except on Sundays.
Your video is great!
Great tips, and some are so useful for a lot of other excursions (I often forget sunscreen and a hat 😅)
All the tips are well planned out and grouped 😊
Also, it’s really cool that locals can access the ruins for free on Sundays and good for tourists to keep in mind 👍
Thanks! I'm all about the tips - I like researching too because I don't like to be unprepared for things. 😅
Great video guys.
Thank you!
I recommend getting a tour guide. It's amazing and educational.
I agree, I learned so much more than going on my own
You are really amazing.
What a stunning view !!! Beauty at its best ...
Excellent drama of colors !!!
On a scale from 1 to 10, you’re an 11.
Ha - thanks!
WOW, amazing cultural place, i love explore too, sending my full support from Brazil beach! 💚✨✈️
Thanks so much!
Hello I have always heard about this place... İt s too far away for me but at least I can see how the place looks like.. thanks for sharing 😅
Thanks for watching!
شحلاتو😍🤝👍
Did you consider an app lead walking tour? We are heading down there in a couple weeks and I'm not sure about hiring a guide (which also supports the locals) or just using an app. Wondering if anyone has tried using an app.
What other ecological sites can you go to using this ticket?
Hello! Thank you a most informative video!! I am taking a group of 10 there in 2 weeks. I wondered about food purchases at the vendors. Do you know if they take pesos or credit card?? It's a company trip and I need to pay for everyone's food. Trying to find out all I can and be prepared.
Thanks!! Many of the shops do take credit cards, but the small vendors take cash US or pesos.
@@TheAverageTourist Thank you! I think I am going to pull out pesos at the resort and just give everyone a per diem. I am thinking 300 pesos (15 USD) should be enough to eat something per person.
Thank you for this video. That tour actually looks miserable, so I think I’ll skip it for my trip to PDC.
To each their own! We really liked it except it was pretty hot.
Hi what company did you use for the tour guide?
Pretty sure it was Seek & Go
Bring comfortable shoes. It's beautiful and worth the Pecos.
Did you notice a lot of birds in Tulum? Thanks
Don't really remember seeing any actually.
What's the name of the company you hired for the tour?
We booked through 'seek and go'
Bring toilet paper or some type of paper. Some bathrooms have no paper.
