Altournative Tours

This eco-tour company has been offering excursions since 1999 and is helping towns use what they have to improve their way of life. Their specialty is Mayan adventures that combine outdoorsy activities such as kayaking and biking, with cultural tours of the local ruins or exploring the jungle or caves around Playa.

Alltournative-Travel-300x192Half-day and full day trips are available, as is a weeklong bird watching tour, sure to appeal to avid amateur ornithologists. Popular excursions include the Mayan Encounter that takes you on a tour of the Coba Ruins, lets you ride a zip-line over the jungle and has you rappel into a cenote. The Jungle Crossing tour involves snorkeling and kayaking through caverns and underground rivers, as well as 4×4 trekking through the jungle. ”

They work hard to distinguish themselves internationally as both the best alternative for adventure expeditions in Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean, and an example of sustainable recreational tourism.
