Situated on the eastern side of the Yucatan Peninsula, Tulum is a gorgeous paradise with stunning beaches and lush jungles. Aside from its growing popularity as a postcard-worthy destination, this charming town is also home to perfectly preserved Mayan ruins that will delight archeology buffs. There are no airports in Tulum so to get there, you’ll need to first go to Cancun International Airport, which is the closest airport, and drive for about an hour and a half. Although it may seem quite tedious, the effort is totally worth it. Once you reach this haven, you can explore caves, lagoons, cenotes, and other natural attractions. Some of the must-visit ones are the Big Cenote and Playa Ruinas. To give you the full experience, you need a relaxing place to stay where you can recharge.
