It was really special to be the first people to get in and see the ruins after Coba was closed for 5 months. The jungle came alive and there were butterflies and bugs and tarantulas everywhere!!
I climbed it! And was terrified to go down! You see the jungle below and peaks of other ruins far away from the top of Coba:) We walked to pyramid ,our guide told us about ancient football game-play to death, about maya calendar (my math did not work), about wells covered with sculls on the site.....I got my Birthdate Parchment in ink and colours as my souvenir. And we had no time to walk back to the bus-the whole area got flooded within 10 minutes and mud and water were ankle dip, so we had to use the taxis to get back
Namaskar Janet 🙏🏻🕉. I really liked your travel vlog on the Coba Mayan Ruins and the cenote Tankach-ha. I look forward to visiting these places now that your vlog has given me good info to go on. I´m currently in Playa Del Carmen. Keep growing on UA-cam. You´re getting a like 👍🏻 and SUB from me now. Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻😎😀.
I was in Coba in August 2018. Beautiful ruins. I was able to go all the way up and saw the panoramic view. It was amazing. I think I went to the same cenote you went (I can’t remember the name). We also went to a Mayan show and had a great dinner. Thanks for sharing your experiences with us Janet. I need to travel so much!

Coba is a wonderful site. I explored it back in the mid-1990's when few people visited it and long before the "Mayan Riviera" existed. The view from the top of the temple is fantastic. Hopefully it will be re-opened. Very nice videolog!
Wow, changed quite a bit since I went back in 1989. My Grandparents are responsible for the school there and its continued funding by the Mexican government. We stayed at the villas de arquelogicas back then but our favorite restaurant Bocadito was amazing local traditional food. The entire right side of Nohosh Mul (the temple of the honey god) was completely unexcavated back then and a small 8'x8' chamber exists at the top with 360 degree views of dense green rainforest. OMG the cenote was not open at the time. I would love to return and see Coba again!!
Hi. We will be there in 2-3 weeks. January 2021. Is the Grand Pyramid still closed? I walked respectfully all over Chichen Itza structures top and bottom, inside and out over 20 years ago. Was MAGNIFICENT.
Hi Janet what an amazing place what did the guide say about the stone stella ? I'm very interested in this as it has hieroglyphics on it I think this predates the site but not much info about it !!
I was there in 2017 and was able to climb it. No problem getting up but had to use the rope to get down. Not much to see at the top except forest tops.
If you don't rent a car, you can probably ride a collectivo from Tulum to Coba, but are there any collectivos waiting in Coba to take you back to Tulum. If not, how can one go back from Coba to Tulum? I am hesitant to rent a car, because i have heard that the companies can charge 1000s of dollars on your credit card as deposit and may have trouble getting the money back. What are the best suggestions?
Great videos, Janet. I would love to visit Tulum, coming from Playa del Carmen. I would want the bike taxi as I have some health issues that limit walking/climbing. Would you suggest just taking a taxi from here to the entrance and then getting the guide/bike taxi? Do you know how early they open? Thank you for the info!! 😍
@@JanetNewenham Awesome. I am thinking of working remotely their for a week. Any tips on where to stay or visit? I'm open to the whole region from Cancun Tulum Chichenitza and islands.
What a great video, thanks for sharing your adventure! I went here back in 2013 and was amazed by these incredibly historical pyramids!! Feel free to check out my travel adventures if your interested!
I wish people would stop climbing these beautiful pyramids and have some respect for these ruins. They are destroying these rocks by consistently climbing them. Have some respect for other cultures. Hope they leave everything roped off forever. Nobody climbs the Egypt pyramids BECAUSE ITS ILLEGAL!!!

Where did you get your guide?
I was there today... it’s still very slow and just a few tourists
Went there in 2007. It was an incredible experience. I loved it. Climbing the pyramid was freighting.
11:52 *So nice that the guide opened his home to you* 💕
Very nice, so glad you did this without other tourists there. Your video skills pretty good. Definitely watchable. Thanks so much
I was there!!! Thanks for the video Janet!! ❤️ Magical place with magical people!!
thanks for sharing such a fun day!
I enjoyed climbing coba years ago. Enjoying your videos. Miss Mexico
Great Vid... thx for taking us along with you!
Your vid's are addictive, great content and good vibes.
Thanks for sharing. I'll get there someday!

Seems like this area has lots of history behind it, and great to explore the nature. wow that looks quite high haha but you made it!
I was fortunate to be able to still climb the ruin a few years ago. The view was spectacular...

Those ruins are beautiful. Lovely video.
thanks for watching!
I love how your guide pointed out wildlife to you and showed you Mayan traditions. How long are you staying in Mexico for, Janet?
Wow! Nice tour !

Yes was sad I didn't get to see the view! Next time!

Very nice 👍
Janet do you have any experience with Renting a Car in Mexico and the does and don't of renting and driving in Mexico ?
It's now March 2021 & I want to go to Coba but NOT unless I can climb to see the panoramic view. Does anyone know if it's open to climb again?
What tour did you use. Would be interested in meeting a mayan family.
Can we come with drones ?
Do you know if A.D.O. buses are operational during these times?
Yes they are but FAR less frequently :-)

@@Mrkevi123 Playa Del Carmen prob best place for remote work as it has best WiFi
What is the Tour Company/Tour Guide that you used?
We didn't use any. We just drove there then hired a local guide.
What a great video, thanks for sharing your adventure! I went here back in 2013 and was amazed by these incredibly historical pyramids!! Feel free to check out my travel adventures if your interested!
How did you get your tour guide?
😎👍👍
:-)
Public is no longer able to climb has been closed since the pandemic.

you should fix your mask, no good...
Lame. I used to go there just to climb the pyramid.
