Great video. We are getting ready to spend a month traveling through the area. We are watching videos to find the must see spots and this video is helpful and fun. I'm getting really excited for our Yucatan adventure! Thanks for sharing.
Great job! Awesome footage! Its so funny hoe everyone has their own experience. We live in Quintana Roo part of the year....and I would have totally numbered these places differently! But I still love them all. Our favorite ruins are Coba for sure. Our number one is Cozumel, but we are divers. Holbox def takes the cake for the best thing we have eaten on the entire Peninsula. Go to Mandarinas and have the Huatiloche Brioche'....thank me later. (it will change your LIFE). Also Roots for the best Pizza. BTW....its pronounced Quintana Roo*, as in Roh, or Row. (while rolling the R)
@@AgrippaTheMighty totally! We lived there for 4 months once. It’s our favorite home base on the mainland. Veggie Veggie street food owners are my close personal friends. Go check out their restaurant!
Nice video! Yucatan is on my bucket list. A quick question-I dont speak Spanish, would it be easy to travel around? What is best way to get around by public transport?
It’s possible but not the easiest! Knowing Spanish makes it easier as many people don’t speak English. However, you could always download the offline google translate and that would help 😄 the more touristic places have more English speakers of course. The best way to get between places is by tourist bus, the ADO! It drives all across the Yucatan and is very easy and safe! 😄
Amazing! You will have such a great time. Hopefully the video helps you find the best of the Yucatan. We have many individual videos on our Mexico playlist of the places mentioned in the video too in case those are helpful for you. Have a man awesome trip! 🇲🇽
Guys! Amazing video! Thank you ♥️ What about CANCUN, is it worth to see? You didn’t mention that city at all :P I heard that it’s really crowdy, expensive and doesn’t have mexico vibe
Thank you for watching! Glad you enjoyed it 😊 we didn’t mention Cancun in the video since we didn’t spend enough time there to get a real sense of it. We’re actually back in Mexico now and will be in Cancun in about a week. Should have a video of it done in about 3-4 weeks if you want to check it out then. From rumours we’ve heard, we also expect a bit more crowded than the other cities in the Yucatan peninsula, but hopefully we can find some hidden gems in the area 😉
Thank you for the well-put guide! I'm wondering, did you face any problems flying a drone? I have a mavic mini that I'd like to take but many people say it's prohibited and all, yet I see people make drone videos with no issues
That should be enough time! Depends if you’re planning to travel the majority of the time or do weekend trips from PDC. We lived in Playa Del Carmen for 2 months while working remotely and did the majority of the spots on 2-3 day weekend trips or as day trips from PDC. Have fun! The Yucatan peninsula is a really magical place ✨
This is the best video I've seen yet! If you could narrow it down to an itinerary for 7-8 days, what would you do? We are a family with three teenagers. Super interested in it all, but I know that's not realistic.
For 7-8 days, we would recommend Isla Holbox for 2 days, Valladolid for 2 days with Chichen Itza included there, Tulum for 2-3 days and then fly back out from Cancun
At the temples, can you store your luggage? Wondering how easy it'll be for example to go from Valladolid to Merida with a stop in Chichen Itza (travelling in Two weeks from now !) Thx, great video!
I don’t think there’s storage space at the temples but the parking lots are generally monitored / secured so should be safe to leave your luggage in the trunk! 😊
Many thanks for this video! Nice content, and looks rather unedited (or at least not too much) which is great. This video helped me decide to include Holbox to my upcoming trip in december :-) Your other videos about Mexico are also really helpful! Do you think it's a must to include Isla Mujeres, next to Holbox and Cozumel (for snorkeling/diving)? We only have 16 days :D
Thanks for your comment! We always want to keep our travel videos real and show how it really looks so no colour grading involved! If you only have 16 days, we would suggest leaving Isla Mujeres out and spending some extra time on Holbox or Cozumel instead! 😁 Isla Mujeres is beautiful but nothing compared to Holbox!
@@worldwildhearts Thank you so much for your clear answer! I had the same idea when I read more about it, but now I’m sure :-). And yes, it’s a relief to see real content between all those edits. Keep up your great work, I’m sure you will help many other travelers too!
@@worldwildhearts I would second that. If you want to dive and snorkel, nothing like Cozumel. And for sure spend at least 3 days in Holbox. December is the best time to go there bc you will have no rain!
Wonderful video beautifully crafted and presented You put it together in a very ordered way which is very helpful for someone having to make difficult choices PS - Is there any route (even a footpath) ESE from Chichila towards Cancun?
We didn’t visit las Coloradaa when we were there because the locals told us the water wasn’t very pink at that time of year we were there. We heard about Xcaret when we were living in Playa Del Carmen but found it expensive. We ran out of time to visit Merida and Mahaual, but would love to visit it next time!
@@worldwildhearts Scaret expensive? Its the best amusement park in the world, for a reason with a magnificent night folclore show, and a spectacular bufet included. Yo mssed out the best atraction of the 10.
For 7-10 days, we recommend flying into Cancun, then going to Isla Mujeres, then Tulum, then Valladolid / Chichen Itza, and then back to Cancun to fly out. That way, you get a mix of everything (cenotes, beaches, ruins, and culture). For that route, you would likely need to rent a car after Isla Mujeres to make it a comfortable trip on your own time schedule
Holbox is doable but it’s not as easy to get to! It’s quite a drive to the ferry point from Cancun or anywhere else on the peninsula. But it’s definitely the most beautiful island… maybe it’s possible if you have 10 days!
We think about visiting Yucatan in June. Now some concerns regarding rain and hurricane season came up. Can someone tell me what a regular June looks like regarding rain. I know that hurricanes are a thing of chance and can happen. Thanks
Hurricane season starts in June, but really depends from year to year... we were in Mexico until the end of May and there was definitely more frequent rain coming in, but the days were still mostly sunny (with a few hours of heavy rain - often later in the day)
Definitely snorkeling gear! Basically mostly summer stuff... flip flops, sun screen, sunglasses, ....! Would also recommend bringing insect repellent and a pair of decent training shoes (especially if you plan to visit the ruins!). Have a great trip!
We drove a rental car for some of the trips and also took the bus to many spots. We also took an overnight bus from playa del Carmen to Chiapas but it took about 22 hours. If you have the money to fly there, we would recommend doing that!
We loved Chiapas! Went there for about 2.5 weeks and did a road trip in a rental car all around. Definitely worth it if you’ve got a week or two at least. Very safe in our opinion. Locals were really friendly and welcoming. We have a whole video on that road trip if you’re interested in watching it and learning more about Chiapas. Here’s the link: ua-cam.com/video/hCQIokJhsys/v-deo.html
Hello great video. Did you know that Rose McGowan lives out there somewhere? Can you tell me how you got to that place? I am Charlie 63 lived in Vietnam for 14 years but not back in Texas looking to find a easy place to live that is very safe and affordable? Thank You 🙏 Charles.
The Yucatan Peninsula seemed safe to us overall. Many Americans live in the areas of Playa Del Carmen / Cancun. For getting around to the destinations, we usually rented a car which was pretty affordable
We were there for about 2 and a half months and lived in Playa Del Carmen during that time for the most part. Then traveled for long weekends sometimes to the other destinations around. Overall, cost of living in Playa Del Carmen was very cheap compared to the US. You could get a decent dinner for about $5-$10 and food at the grocery store / rent was also relatively cheap. Out of the places in our video, valladolid is probably the cheapest to live overall.
@@charlesscinta7377 for rent, we paid about $700 for a studio on the edge of downtown Playa Del Carmen. For the quality of the place, it was a good deal. I think you can also find much cheaper spots if you are ok living a little bit outside of the cities
We found the Yucatan peninsula to be very safe in general. We were there about a year ago. We have heard news of Tulum becoming a little less safe in the last year due to drug issues, but not sure on the extent of how far that has gone.
We found it to be very safe! The locals were friendly and helpful throughout the Yucatan 👍 just make sure to use your common sense and always ask locals questions / advice if you are unsure of a situation
Hello sorry to see that the government does not even have XCALK Qroo on the map we are a top dive and fly fishing destination plenty of Rooms Restaurants and boats for your vacation!
Yucatán is bountiful. But. All Thos areas. Going. To be finish. Is coming. A enormous. Sunami. I’m feel sorry for my country. And all Thos. People. Live. Here. 6/14. 2022 message.
Nice introduction to Yucatan. How did you manage for drone footages? Mexico does officially not allow foreigners to operate drones, and you do not sound like Mexicans 🙂
Yucatan is derived from Yoktan, here: *SHEM* (Asia/Americas): *ARPAXSHAD* (Chaldeans- Irakis)> ☆Eber☆》 *Yoktan*(east Asian orientals): Almodad(?) Sheleph(?) Hazarmaveth(Hadramauts- south Arabians) Jerah(?) Hadoram(?) Uzal(Turkic peoples) Diklah(?) Obal(?) Abimael(?) Sheba(Indians) Ophir(Sri Lankas/Tamils- south indians) Havila(Indians) Yobab(?) Now, who are the Maya, from these 13 nations?
this video talks about the Yucatan PENINSULA not the Yucatan STATE. The Pensinsula does encompass 3 different Mexican States: Yucatán, Quintana Roo and Campeche. All places mentioned here are within those states.
This video would be a lot more helpful without the godawful horrible music in the backgorund. i don't know why every video now thinks they have to have annoying bad dance music in the background
Yes lol that was at the beginning of 2021 though so we were obiged to wear it in certain places (like Valladolid or at Chichen Itza!). Wouldn't be the case anymore luckily!
Great vid! I'm going to this region for the first time this December. I had Merida in my list but after watching this I'm debating replacing it with Isla Holbox, which wasn't on my list haha. Also, do some cenotes enforce life jackets? Or did you guys just choose to wear it for the cenote you filmed near Valladolid?
Haha that’s awesome! Merida is a great city too. But you can easily explore it in a day or two. And yes some cenotes do enforce the life jackets unfortunately… but the best ones are near Valladolid and Merida and there’s a number there that don’t require it!
This was awesome! TY for the info! Did you need to buy tickets to Chichen Itza or any other of the mayan ruins in advance? I think I am gonna book a trip out to Valladolid for a few weeks but I kinda just want to take it in stride, I don't want to do too much planning. Should I look into booking tickets to any of the ancient sites?
Sweet, cool video. They seem to be pretty hardcore on face masks though... even out in huge outdoor areas, is it mandatory everywhere outside in Quintana Roo or even Mexico?
When we were there, facemasks were advised, especially at the archeological sites and cities where there were lots of people around. We were there back in March / April when things were a bit more strict though. When we were outdoors and there was not many people, then it was not necessary to wear it
@@worldwildhearts Thank you! I'm trying to find out if they allow exceptions. My wife, I and our two kids are planning on going in two weeks (moslty inspired by your videos). She get's a severe rash by wearing those things though... here in the netherlands she has an excemption form, I'm guessing in the hot humid climate over there it will only be worse. Can't find any info on it though.
Not sure about that. That sucks for your wife! But outdoors it never was mandatory except for Valladolid! The more touristic areas were very very relaxed 😊
Beautiful! Can you please give me the recent Info about drone rules in Mexico. Did you had any trouble in Cancun airport getting drone into Mex? İs it legal flying as a tourist, any advices? Thank you!
It is legal to fly as a tourist. We didn't have any troubles in Cancun airport ourselves. We have a DJI Mini 2 drone which folds up so it's easy to transport as a carry-on. Here are the latest drone rules about Mexico overall: uavcoach.com/drone-laws-in-mexico/
Thank you so much for this video! ❤ I'm planning on going to tulum and then Merida! How was the budget for you guys? I'm looking for the prices to enter the cenotes but I cannot find it anywhere
Thanks! Tulum has gotten super expensive in the last years (especially after Covid. prices for cenotes have doubled in the area around Tulum, but it’s still affordable compared to Europe and North America. Expect to pay 20€ per person to enter popular cenotes! You probably can’t find any prices online because it has changed like 5 times over the year 🥲. Merida, on the other hand, is very affordable… accommodation, food, everything is cheaper here than Tulum. There are also some cool cenotes nearby Merida, less popular but cheaper. I’d say you can easily get by 50€ per day in Merida (including accommodation), but it would be harder in Tulum. Also really depends on the season you’re travelling!
Something to mention is that every time someone put a church in a video as an attraction is just very painful for many Mexicans, as you know the church have and still doing so much harmful ugly things to my people and Spain used the church to enslave my ancestors, so please be aware and respect.

You dont need to speak spanish in Q Roo from Cancun to Belize is like an american state ( Tx )
We don’t really agree with that… it’s definitely better than the other states in Mexico, but there’s definitely many people who only speak Spanish
Dont forget to fit chixuculub
The town sits in the middle of the chixuculub crater (the asteroid that killed off the non avian dinosaurs)

Great vid! I'm going to this region for the first time this December. I had Merida in my list but after watching this I'm debating replacing it with Isla Holbox, which wasn't on my list haha.
Also, do some cenotes enforce life jackets? Or did you guys just choose to wear it for the cenote you filmed near Valladolid?
Haha that’s awesome! Merida is a great city too. But you can easily explore it in a day or two. And yes some cenotes do enforce the life jackets unfortunately… but the best ones are near Valladolid and Merida and there’s a number there that don’t require it!

This was awesome! TY for the info! Did you need to buy tickets to Chichen Itza or any other of the mayan ruins in advance? I think I am gonna book a trip out to Valladolid for a few weeks but I kinda just want to take it in stride, I don't want to do too much planning. Should I look into booking tickets to any of the ancient sites?
No need! You can easily buy the tickets when you get there! We usually do that too as we like to be flexible.
@@worldwildhearts Perfect thank you for getting back to me!

Sweet, cool video. They seem to be pretty hardcore on face masks though... even out in huge outdoor areas, is it mandatory everywhere outside in Quintana Roo or even Mexico?
When we were there, facemasks were advised, especially at the archeological sites and cities where there were lots of people around. We were there back in March / April when things were a bit more strict though. When we were outdoors and there was not many people, then it was not necessary to wear it
@@worldwildhearts Thank you! I'm trying to find out if they allow exceptions. My wife, I and our two kids are planning on going in two weeks (moslty inspired by your videos). She get's a severe rash by wearing those things though... here in the netherlands she has an excemption form, I'm guessing in the hot humid climate over there it will only be worse. Can't find any info on it though.
Not sure about that. That sucks for your wife! But outdoors it never was mandatory except for Valladolid! The more touristic areas were very very relaxed 😊
Quite nice video. I was there few weeks ago. There is my video too about Yucatan. If you want please check it out. Good work.
nice i'm backpacking mexico too, check my channel out for vlogs
Why didn´t you put Cancun on the list?
It’s not in our top 10 as we prefer the less-touristic places to go 😄. It’s personal preference though
Beautiful!
Can you please give me the recent Info about drone rules in Mexico. Did you had any trouble in Cancun airport getting drone into Mex? İs it legal flying as a tourist, any advices?
Thank you!
It is legal to fly as a tourist. We didn't have any troubles in Cancun airport ourselves. We have a DJI Mini 2 drone which folds up so it's easy to transport as a carry-on. Here are the latest drone rules about Mexico overall: uavcoach.com/drone-laws-in-mexico/
that meteor right there where u may ask it was there 30million years ago
Thank you so much for this video! ❤
I'm planning on going to tulum and then Merida! How was the budget for you guys? I'm looking for the prices to enter the cenotes but I cannot find it anywhere
Thanks! Tulum has gotten super expensive in the last years (especially after Covid. prices for cenotes have doubled in the area around Tulum, but it’s still affordable compared to Europe and North America. Expect to pay 20€ per person to enter popular cenotes! You probably can’t find any prices online because it has changed like 5 times over the year 🥲. Merida, on the other hand, is very affordable… accommodation, food, everything is cheaper here than Tulum. There are also some cool cenotes nearby Merida, less popular but cheaper. I’d say you can easily get by 50€ per day in Merida (including accommodation), but it would be harder in Tulum. Also really depends on the season you’re travelling!
What did the Mayans leave behind? A wing-spreading flamingo to heighten senses or the hacienda and cenote?
lol
So happy to have come across your video. Very informative.
Thanks! ☺️
Lovely trip! Gracias
Graciaaas ☺️
GREAT VÍDEO !
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Me gusta 😅
Thanks!
Something to mention is that every time someone put a church in a video as an attraction is just very painful for many Mexicans, as you know the church have and still doing so much harmful ugly things to my people and Spain used the church to enslave my ancestors, so please be aware and respect.
We definitely are aware of that! Many of the guided tours we booked though take you to these churches because of the history
