Description

If you're vacationing in the Mexican Caribbean, join us for a free walking tour of Playa del Carmen, where we'll delve into its history and uncover fascinating details about this iconic destination in the Riviera Maya.

Free Tour Highlights

Our journey will begin as we meet up at the designated time at the bus station on Quinta Avenida. Across from this location lies Fundadores Park, where the iconic whitewashed facade of the Chapel of Our Lady of Carmen, the town's most prominent Catholic church, stands tall.

Adjacent to this spot, on the same beach, we'll marvel at the Mayan Portal—a sculptural ensemble gazing out over the Caribbean Sea. This installation offers insights into the customs and traditions associated with the pre-Columbian history of the Yucatan Peninsula.

Continuing our exploration, we'll uncover the glamour of Playa del Carmen's most popular stores and restaurants. Which establishments draw the most attention? What are the preferred spots of celebrities visiting Playa del Carmen? These questions and more will be answered during our tour.

After an engaging hour and a half, we'll conclude the free walking tour of Playa del Carmen in the town's historic center.
