Cancún Tours and Trips

Our leader, Arturo, in a word was... fantastic! He managed his herd of 12 client cyclists in a manner that was fun, patient, gracious and ALWAYS with a smile. And he was an excellent communicator at all times. Our bus drivers were also great and worked very hard with long days. The newer hybrid 21-speed bikes were surprisingly ideal for the cycling - quite enjoyable. Also surprising was the quality of the road surfaces we were on. Generally in very good shape with little traffic. Although they were often very straight and generally flat, the jungle would frequently open up to nicer vistas and give us slices of friendly Mexican rural life. The trip was further enhanced by the quality of the many cultural & archeological tours. Through his excellent connections and experience, Arturo snagged amazing English speaking guides that provided detailed interesting commentary that brought insight to the sites we visited - it would be difficult to get those experiences traveling on your own. Our beginning of February tour was often windy during the rides and had temperatures that were cooler than normal, especially in the evenings. Still lovely though. During our last day of cycling it was warm but suddenly started to rain. Hard! We got thoroughly soaked. But we still enjoyed the experience and laughed at the situation while riding. Most in our group thought it was the best day of cycling in the tour. Every day was jam packed with the bus rides, cycling, eating, and touring the cultural experiences. Very busy so there wasn't a lot of downtime, especially as some activities took longer than planned for. After the tour, many in the group stayed days or weeks longer in the region to enjoy sunshine and relaxation. In summary, I highly recommend this trip. The Yucatan is a beautiful area with so much history. The cycling was enjoyable, but likely too easy for more serious cyclists expecting great workouts. Maybe we were just lucky as our group really gelled and had a lot of laughs. Super fun!

Loved it! A fantastic tour with a good mixture of cycling, sightseeing and culture as well as sampling culinary delights. Each day was full of activities and education. Arturo was an amazing guide - very friendly, patient and a great leader. Our drivers Lugo and Jose were also great. Such a fun and memorable trip with a great multinational group.

This was my first Explore trip, my first holiday in Mexico, and my first organised cycling holiday. It was fantastic. We had a great group of people and our local leader & driver were excellent. So many highlights, I wish the holiday had lasted longer. We visited places that I wouldn't have seen if I'd organised the holiday myself. The busy schedule was so well organised by the Explore team that I didn't have to worry about the details and I could just enjoy myself. I want to go back asap!

A wonderful place to go and a full itinerary made sure we saw the best of it. Explore made sure everything went well, and I would have no hesitation in using them again. A top trip.

This trip is 2 weeks full of interesting history, places, culture and food. The perfect way to experience Mexico and all that it has to offer; from the city, to the jungle, to the beach, to the colonial towns and everything in between!

I had a fantastic time on this trip. The itinerary was well-planned and the locations were stunning. A special mention to our tour leader, who was excellent; very approachable and professional. He really helped the group bond and made the experience seamless
