Your 4-day Tulum itinerary
Day 1 · Arrive & settle in
Land, drop your bags, and ease into Tulum with something low-key nearby. Rent a bike — the hotel zone is long and taxis add up fast.
Day 2 · Swim the Gran Cenote and Dos Ojos
Spend the morning on the highlight, then in the afternoon or evening: explore the cliffside tulum ruins at sunrise.
Day 3 · Beach-club day on Playa Paraíso
Spend the morning on the highlight, then in the afternoon or evening: day trip to cobá to climb a mayan pyramid.
Day 4 · Last morning & departure
Squeeze in one more before you go — snorkel the sian ka’an biosphere if you have time — then head to the airport.
