There are departures every day at 8:00, 10:30 and 13:30 hrs, lasting approximately 4 to 5 hrs. Tours depart from Plaza Kukulkan.

Isla Holbox. The people of Holbox is very small and has no paved roads, therefore, the most common means of transportation are bicycles and golf carts. We recommend renting one of these carts to tour the island while enjoying the great scenery and breathe the fresh breeze of the sea. In the Laguna Yalahán, take a boat ride which will let you know Bird Island and Cape Catoche, during their tour will surely find dolphins and pink flamingos.
Garrafon Park. In this park you can practice the "flight" zip line, one of the most exciting of Isla Mujeres, which is let slip, subject to a pulley and harness, for a series of steel cables to complete a journey of more than of 350 m, more than 50 km / h while you feel the adrenaline running through your body. The tour ends at the Cave of Silence, in the southern part of Isla Mujeres, near the ancient temple dedicated to the goddess Ix-chel.
Playa del Carmen. It is located 68 km south of Cancun on highway No.. 307, in the Riviera Maya. In this wonderful space can take tours to the jungle by jeep, bike, horse or bicycle.
Walking the way to Coba.
