Over View
Trust us, the pics you’ll take on this trip will need no filters. This snappy seven-day tour takes you through the very best of the Yucatn Peninsula’s most colourful sites. Swim in an underground limestone cave through pools of crystal clear water and marvel at the blushing pink hue of the Playa de las Coloradas lake hidden in a biosphere reserve. In between, you’ll have time to chill out on the beach and let loose with your new friends on a night out in Tulum (which you may or may not want to leave your camera at home for).
