Land and Water Adventures
Underwater life in the Yucatan is very diverse, with both salt and fresh water zones. The Yucatan Peninsula reaches to the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean, featuring coral reefs, lagoons and open waters. The inland lakes and rivers are home to many freshwater species as well as home to reptiles.
Here at Duende Adventure Travel we have gathered the best of both worlds and have created special guided tours that will satisfy every requirement or wish you may have. Working with the best guides makes it possible for us to provide tours that will expand your knowledge and understanding of this part of the world, even if you have visited the Yucatan Peninsula before and have taken many other adventure travel tours by yourself.
Yucatan Adventure Travel Tours
Here are some of the tours and activities we have to offer to people who are interested in wildlife, local culture and cuisine, birding and underwater activities:
If you are up for taking the challenge and would like to test how well-trained your body is in the subtropical landscape, some of the most popular tours are rafting, hiking, biking on dirt roads, climbing volcanoes and taking long distance trips walking on the specially cut trails in the jungle. None of the activities above are suitable for small children, so if you have kids traveling with you, you will need to find someone to take care of them while you are on the trip. Some trips are just four hours in duration, while others can take as long as several days, so plan your activities accordingly.
For people interested in underwater activities and fishing, we can offer guided tours to some of the best places on earth, with crystal clear water, perfect for scuba diving and snorkeling among the coral reefs and the exotic fishes that inhabit them. A special event during the summer is the arrival of the migrating whale sharks, which is when tourists get a chance to swim side by side with these docile giants.
If you are interested in taking on an adventure tour where you can visit Mayan ruins, you have the option to choose some of the easier to access archaeological sites, or take on the challenge of visiting some of the ruins that are hidden deeper into the jungles of Yucatan. Whichever of the two options you choose is entirely up to you, as the ancient Mayans have built many cities that are now in a state of ruin, spread all over the Yucatan Peninsula.
