I visited Tulum when I was in Cancun last october and there was no sargassum and that beach down the hill from the Archeological sight was some of the clearest blue water I've ever seen!
*Seriously?* We might have gone at the wrong time the water was not clear at all and with sargassum. Thank you very much for watching and commenting amig@ 🫶🙏
*Hola Sue* , Yeah, how busy was it in March? We visited the site as you saw in the video when people were able to climb the pyramid back in 2018 and it was packed. Thank you so much for watching and commenting Sue 🫶🥰
@@ForTheRoadTravels it wasn't very busy. Sort of a slow steady stream of people but all very chill. A couple of tour busses there. I went with my sister (she lives near Tulum) just on our own. Had a great guide and took the option of the tricycle for part of the guided tour - highly recommend! I have a visit planned to PDC in September and again in December to spend Christmas & New Year's there. I am so in love with Mexico ❤
*Hola* amig@ Aww, thank you so much 🙏 Ever since we started YT and did some research as well as watched some videos, we saw that timestamps can have a better user experience for the viewers, we truly appreciate your comment and LOVE the feedback. Thank you so much for watching and leaving a comment, this really helps us a lot 🫶 🙌 🙏
I'm so glad i found this channel! I just love all your videos -- you both do a really great job!! I had some questions for you: 1. do you use something like an iphone pro to do your videos? And do you do anything special for microphones? Your sound is so good i thought you must be using some sort of aux microphone.
Hola Christian, Sorry for the late response. Thank you so much for your kind comment. We are happy to respond your questions: No, we use a combination of a Mirrorless camera, and action camera (DJI Osmo Action) and some times like 10% we use our phone. Yes, we do use an external microphone on top of the camera. Thank you so much for watching and for your questions ❤️🙏🙏
Hi guys…. I’m so happy you were able to visit my home away from home again… of course everything isn’t for everyone… but I’m overjoyed that both of you were able to enjoy Tulum❤ I can’t wait for more videos… wonder where you’ll go next??? 🤔
*Hola amiga* 🙌 Yeah, we were so happy to go back too 🙏. Definitely, Tulum is not for everyone, and we love going for a day trip, we'd love to be back and explore Tulum (Local) on our own, and show more things about this town. Thank you so much for watching Shameka, we truly appreciate it, and we're working on 2 new videos in the area to be released in the following weeks
Hi guys, another lovely video 😊 When I visited the Coba ruins a few years ago, I got so tired walking to the actual ruins that I was grateful for the ‘Mayan taxi’ taking me back to the main entrance ;) A bit embarrassing, I know ;) Btw, that cenote you visited looks amazing!
*Hola Letitia* 🫶 Awww, thank you amiga 🙏. We totally understand, the site is huge and with the heat and humidity is a "MUST" take the option for the "Mayan Taxi" 🤭🤣. Yeah, the cenote was lovely, we wish we could explore the other one on the premises but we did not have too much time so we wanted to enjoy all the time we have on the site at this cenote. 🥰
Great video guys!! So good to see a different opinion of Tulum...a day tour would be something we would do we did find it to be very expensive there. Viv
Awww, thank you *Viv*. Yeah. Tulum is not horrible but it's not our favourite, indeed is our least favourite spot in the state but going for a day trip or a full-day tour it's perfect. We believe it's one of the most expensive places not only in the state but in the entire country. 🫢. Thanks for watching and commenting amigos. 🙏🥰
Thank you for this enjoyed it. Im due to be in Valladolid in October and although i want to just rest, I may do a few day trips. I have been to Chichen Itza and Ek Balam, but not Coba nor the Tulum ruins. Love archeology and the Mayan culture. Will bookmark the tour link you've provided. Hope youre enjoying a relaxing Sunday!
Hola *Kate* 🙌 Awesome, you must be so excited, October is just around the corner. We haven't yet been in Ek Balam but we have it on our bucket list. So do we, even though we're not museum people, we love exploring archaeological zones. Aw, thank you so much, when booking through our links supports our channel massively at no extra cost 🫢. Thank you so much for watching and for your sweet comment amiga 🫶🥰
*Hola Allyson* 🤗 No, it's called Copal, as far as we know both are used for ancient cleanses 🧐. We love the smell of Copal incense 🫢🤩. Thank you so much for watching and commenting amiga 🫶
Is hard to predict but last year *April* we believe there was not a lot of seaweed. We strongly recommend checking Red Monitoreo de Sargazo, where you can find daily updates on this 🫶🙏
Hi! I love your channel! So many interesting information :) could you tell me what kind of camera do you use to record in the water? Im going to Mexico and I think I may need one :)
Hola Paulina 🙌 Awwww, thank you so much for your kind words 🤩. Of course, we use an action camera (DJI Action Camera 3) and we highly recommend, this is the one we use as vlogging camera as well as underwater camera, even for activities such as zip lines, water slides, bike ridding, etc. You can find this camera and more in the following link 👇 www.amazon.com/shop/fortheroad/list/2KFDM8MHCL9XT?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_aipsflist_aipsffortheroad_ZF9XZ7FVD1AS9XXNT252 Thank you for watching, and commenting in our video 🙌🤩

I didn't need a tour for Tulum ruins. For Xichen Itza, you do. I spent wayyyy longer exploring Tulum, however. Xixhen Itza was just a bunch of big structures, but not as plentiful to look at and weave through. The shops outside of the Tulum ruins are grotesquely overpriced, and there weren't prices on many things. There's cenotes for free, behind cafes in Tulum. I'm pretty disappointed in the clickbait of this video. It was just a commercial, and they didn't actually go to Tulum, other than the ruins.

Tulum to overcrowded for me to live there but a nice day trip for sightseeing 😊
Hey Sadie 🤗🤗 Oh we totally agree - especially that beach road in peak months, that's not a lot of fun 🫠 but for a day trip, it's great 🫶🌴🇲🇽
