10Yrs in Tulum

We're a small collective of guides who've called Tulum home for ten-plus years. Between tours, we invest our time into local initiatives.

Learn More+

Mentoring kids, creating community gardens, supporting conservation efforts, and creating platforms for the performing arts. These are the places we love the most. So we built these tours so you can experience our version of Tulum for yourself.

10Years in Tulum+

All of our guides have been in Tulum for at least ten years, speak English and Spanish fluently, and are active members of the community and local causes.

3Local Causes Supported+
  • Los Amigos De La Esquina. Teaches music, yoga, and mentorship to local and Native kids and teenagers in Tulum.
  • SED Teatral. A theater group whose shows are 100% donation-based, keeping the arts accessible to everyone in Tulum, not just people who can pay.
  • Cenote Sanctuary. A botanical garden and jungle preservation project, tied directly to our Secret Cenote and Botanical Garden tour.

We are a safe and affirming space for all sexual orientations and gender identities.
