Is there a Tulum and Chichén Itzá tour in one day from Cancún?

Not on GetYourGuide. The sites are about seven hours of driving apart in a loop from Cancún, and Chichén Itzá stops selling entry at 16:00, so a same-day tour does not fit. The closest one-day option is Chichén Itzá + Cobá (from $92), or book two days: the classic Chichén tour from $57 and a Tulum tour from $44.23.

How much does a Tulum and Chichén Itzá trip cost from Cancún?

About $160 per person over two days at the cheapest: $57 for the classic Chichén day, about $44 in cash for its entrance, $44.23 for the Tulum day and about $15 (265 MXN) for the Tulum entrance — plus lunches. The one-day Chichén + Cobá route is about $157 with both entrances, plus lunch.

Which is the best Tulum and Chichén Itzá tour from Cancún?

For two ruins in one day, Chichén Itzá + Cobá (4.6 from 710 reviews). Over two days, the classic Chichén tour (4.6 from 8,811) and the Tulum, cenote and Playa del Carmen day (4.6 from 471). If you want turtles, swap the second day for Tulum + Akumal ($86.45).

What do reviews say about the Tulum and Chichén Itzá tours?

Guests praise the guides and the cenote swims most, and warn about the early starts and the long road. On Cobá + Chichén, they mention being able to climb Nohoch Mul at Cobá again. Read one review per tour in the review strip, or the full reviews on each listing.

Which days does the Chichén Itzá + Cobá tour run?

As a group tour from Cancún on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday, from one meeting point on Av. Tulum at 04:50. On Thursday, Saturday and Sunday only the private version is sold, from $1,095 for one person.

Should I do Chichén Itzá or Tulum first?

It does not matter for the sites, but it helps to put the long Chichén day where you have a free day after it. Tulum tours sell group seats on fewer days, so pick the Tulum date first and fit the Chichén Itzá day around it.

Can I climb the pyramids?

At Cobá, yes: Nohoch Mul reopened for climbing on 8 December 2025 on a new wooden staircase. At Chichén Itzá, no — climbing El Castillo has been banned since 2006.

Is the entrance included on these tours?

No. On the Cobá + Chichén combo operators ask you to carry about $65 in cash for both sites; on the classic Chichén day about $44. The Tulum listings call the entrance an additional fee: in 2026 it is 265 MXN (≈$15) per foreign adult at Tulum and 209 MXN (≈$12) at Cobá, paid in pesos on the day.

Riviera Maya: Cobá and Chichén Itzá with a Cenote Swim

4.6 (710 reviews)

Chichén Itzá + Cobá is the closest thing to a two-ruins day from Cancún, and the only one that fits inside 12 hours. The Cobá + Chichén tour leaves one Cancún meeting point on Av. Tulum at 04:50, spends about an hour at Cobá and about two hours with a guide at Chichén Itzá, then adds a cenote swim and a stop in Valladolid. Group departures from Cancún run on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday.

Cobá is the jungle site of the pair: the ruins are spread out under the trees, linked by forest paths. Its big pyramid, Nohoch Mul, can be climbed again since 8 December 2025 on a new wooden staircase — something El Castillo at Chichén Itzá has not allowed since 2006. Operators ask you to carry about $65 in cash for both entrances.

Why One Day for Both Is Too Much

Doing Chichén Itzá and Tulum on one day means about seven hours of driving: roughly 2.5 hours from Cancún west to Chichén Itzá, about two hours back east to Tulum, and about two hours north to Cancún. That is before you spend a minute at either site.

Add two hours on foot at each site and the day passes fourteen hours, with the heat of both sites in the middle of it. It also clashes with the clock: Chichén Itzá sells its last entry at 16:00, so the order cannot be swapped to see Tulum first. That is why no tour from Cancún on GetYourGuide sells it — and why we would not try it by car either.

Which Days the Tours Run

Tulum tours do not run the same days as Chichén Itzá. On the Thursday we checked, the three EKINOX Tulum tours sold only their private version ($742.47 to $928.35 per group); the group tours were bookable again from the Friday. The Cobá + Chichén combo runs as a group tour on four weekdays only.

Plan it from the Tulum side: pick the Tulum date first, then fit the Chichén Itzá day around it. The classic Chichén tour sells most days and adds about $6 on Saturdays and holidays.
