Da sapere su questa attività
Inizia il tuo esclusivo tour Viator la mattina presto, dopo il servizio di prelievo dall'hotel di Playa del Carmen, e parti per un viaggio panoramico di 90 minuti fino a Coba. Unisciti alla guida, un archeologo certificato, per un tour approfondito dell'antica città maya, considerata uno dei più grandi insediamenti pre-colombiani del periodo classico. Raggiungi il sito e immergiti in questa tranquillità, giusto in tempo per evitare le folle!
Passeggiando per le rovine di Coba, che in lingua maya significa "luogo delle acque agitate", la guida specializzata ti fornirà un interessante commento. Apprendi degli studi archeologici su questo sito, che si estende per circa 70 km quadrati, e della civiltà maya che lo occupava.
Ascolta di come la città si sia sviluppata intorno ai cinque laghi circostanti, le cui acque sostentavano circa 50.000 abitanti. Scopri di più sulla rete di strade in cui ti imbatti durante il tour, così come sui grandi monumenti in pietra, chiamati stele, e sui testi geroglifici.
Sali fino all'apice della piramide Nohoch Mul, la piramide maya più alta della penisola dello Yucatan, e da 42 metri d'altezza sopra la foresta pluviale, immortala gli incredibili panorami della giungla.
Con questa esclusiva Viator, la visita a Coba la mattina presto ti permetterà di scoprire il sito a un ritmo tranquillo, senza doverti preoccupare delle folle, e poi potrai visitare un altro sito stupendo dopo aver visto la città maya. Prosegui verso un cenote, una caverna sotterranea con una piscina naturale, e trascorri un'ora di tempo libero nella grotta illuminata naturalmente.
Concludi la tua gita con un abbondante pasto a buffet in un ristorante vicino che offre cucina locale, pasta, insalate e dessert. Il tour termina con il viaggio di ritorno a Playa del Carmen.

We did this tour with Alvaro on March 7th. We stayed on the north end of 5th Ave and were told to be at the HM Hotel at 6:30 am. Of course there were no taxis at 6 am when we left our condo, so we walked there, which was actually the nicest walk up 5th we had. No one trying to sell us drugs or hassle us to buy crap, or pretend they had been our waiter the night before. I digress, we got there early and waited and waited. Apparently they tell you to be there at the time they think you need to leave your lodging to get there on time. The van arrived about 7:20 so just be aware it's an estimated time. I'd rather by early than late, but our boys were a bit cranky at wasting an hour sitting on the edge of a concrete planter in the dark instead of sleeping. The van was nice. Alvaro was a very good guide and I was amazed at how easily he switched between Spanish and English. Coba was pretty neat. It's very different from Chichen Itza. The buildings aren't carved so it wasn't as beautiful but no human sacrifices were done there, which I considered a big plus! We loved climbing the pyramid. It wasn't bad coming down, we just side stepped without any problems. The bike ride was nice too. We actually saw a monkey swinging through the trees with a baby hanging on, so that was neat. We got good and hot so the cenote was heavenly. That was my favorite part of the tour. The lunch was buffet style and very good. The other people on our tour were very nice. We were back to the HM and walked to our condo by 3:30 pm. It was a good value and we enjoyed our tour.
We were picked up on time. This was one of the best trips we have ever done. Normally we are people who like to be independent and go to places alone but the draw of the archaeologist made us book this trip. Our guide from Amigo Tours was Alvarro. He's a great guy and very knowledgable. We would not have learnt what we did without him. It was an amazing sight. You can still walk up the pyramid but we didn't. The descent looked too scary for me! The whole sight is fantastic and we are so pleased we booked this trip. Great also to swim in a cenoteh. If you are planning a trip consider this one.
Tour guide was great, lots of background information about the Mayan culture and the Coba Ruins, and very kind and patient. Spoke English and Spanish fluently. It was nice to be picked up at our resort right on time too! and fantastic to get to Coba early before the big crowds. The view from the top of the pyramid was worth the climb. Bikes made it easy to get around the site quickly and were fun to ride, but they definitely need some maintenance work. The downside which was not the tour's fault is we had very young children and people that didn't know how to ride bikes! So a scramble was made to find/hire workers to cart them around. People, if you cannot physically do the activity or your children are too young to appreciate what they are seeing then don't book this tour. And if you must bring young children realize they will get hungry, thirsty and tired. So be prepared with snacks, water and the ability to either carry them or stay back and not insist the entire group wait while you deal with the meltdown. I have children, I get it that things happen, but thought and preparation go a long way in making everyone's experience better. So if people cannot figure out on their own that young kids are not going to enjoy this perhaps the tour company can make a minimum age requirement?
This tour to Coba was outstanding Value! Pick up place was close to our location and was on time....very very efficient and friendly staff and drivers....the trip to Coba was comfy in the van and Sarah, our guide was efficient in English and Spanish and addressed all tour passengers politely and effectively. She was very knowledgeable and a very patient and pleasant guide. Everything was addressed and ran in time. We got to see Coba for over two hours...remember the walk to the largest and tallest temple bldg is 2km so do take advantage of a bike or pedi- cab , ,these were included in the tour cost! Extremely cool.and enjoyable visit to the Cenote Tankach-Ha ...the best cave swimming yet! Crystal blue clear waters, good change area with shower and bathrooms.....very Important in Mexico for s cenote was not busy as we took the early morning Coba tour....steps down into the cave cenote have a handrail but remember these are slippery..diving platforms at different levels...beautiful water and cave. Do take your camera!! One good hour there then off to lunch...extremely clean and very pleasant lu cheon...lots to chose from in the buffet...really fresh and good local,foods....the only extras are drinks and they were very reasonable. As in 25 pesos for water and lemonade and 40foe beer...just remember to tip these very pleasant, clean and helpful servers.....nice touristy shop there as well, bit expensive but one of a kind rocks and jewelry creations......no,pressure to buy anything or order more drinks...wonderful.
