1. Catamaran Tour to Isla Mujeres – Sail, Sip & Snorkel
Nothing says “vacation” like sailing the Caribbean with the wind in your hair and a drink in your hand. The Catamaran Tour to Isla Mujeres is one of the most iconic and satisfying day trips you can take.
What’s included:

- Snorkeling in vibrant reefs
- Stop at Isla Mujeres for beach club access and lunch buffet
- Time to explore the town’s shops and waterfront
Why you’ll love it: It’s social, scenic, and just the right balance of fun and chill. Plus, you get to experience both sea and island vibes in one trip.
Reserbed Tip:
Book this as part of our Premium Tour Bundle to get front-row sunbeds, priority boarding, and a welcome cocktail at the beach club.
2. Private Yacht Charter – The Ultimate in Nautical Luxury
If you’re seeking something more intimate and upscale, nothing compares to a private yacht charter. This is the kind of experience that transforms your vacation into something movie-worthy.
What’s included:
- 4-hour cruise along the coastline
- Captain, crew, and onboard service
- Unlimited beverages (including premium options)
- Gourmet snack (guacamole, ceviche, or sushi-style trays)
Why you’ll love it: You set the pace. Stop for a swim, pop champagne at sunset, or just enjoy the breeze in complete privacy. Great for couples, families, or small groups.
Reserbed Tip:
We offer curated yacht options in Cancun, Puerto Vallarta, and Los Cabos — some even include drone footage of your trip.
3. Swim in Cenotes – Nature’s Hidden Jewels
Scattered across the Yucatán Peninsula, cenotes are freshwater sinkholes formed thousands of years ago. They’re sacred in Mayan culture and absolutely breathtaking in real life.
Best types to visit:
- Open Cenotes (like Cenote Azul): perfect for swimming and relaxing
- Semi-Open Cenotes (like Dos Ojos): mix of sunlight and cave systems
- Underground Cenotes (like Cenote Suytun): magical for photos and diving
Why you’ll love it: It’s a unique connection to nature — cool, fresh water in surreal settings. Whether you’re snorkeling, diving, or just floating, cenotes will blow your mind.
Reserbed Tip:
Go early in the morning to avoid crowds, and bring water shoes. Our bundles include entrance + transportation + locker access.
4. Visit the Mayan Ruins – History That Stuns
Mexico’s Caribbean isn’t just beaches and margaritas — it’s a gateway to ancient civilization. Visiting Mayan ruins is one of the most profound and educational experiences you can have.
Top ruins to explore:
- Chichen Itzá: A UNESCO World Heritage Site and Wonder of the World
- Tulum Ruins: Perched on a cliff overlooking the sea — breathtaking
- Coba: A more immersive, jungle-like site where you can still climb pyramids
Why you’ll love it: These places give you context — they connect you to the stories, rituals, and vision of a culture that shaped the region.
Reserbed Tip:
Our guided tours include expert storytelling, shaded transport, and cool drinks to make the day enjoyable even under the sun.
5. Food Tours & Fine Dining – A Culinary Journey
The Riviera Maya isn’t just tacos (although the tacos are amazing). It’s a culinary hub that ranges from street food adventures to fine dining with ocean views.
Best ways to taste it all:
- Join a local food tour in Playa del Carmen or downtown Cancun
- Book a private chef dinner at your resort or villa
- Reserve a spot at Michelin-inspired restaurants in Tulum
Why you’ll love it: Every bite is a cultural experience. You’ll taste the influence of Mayan, Spanish, Caribbean, and international flavors. Plus, many chefs use local, organic ingredients that make every dish shine.
