There’s no denying that turning 30 is a huge milestone. That is why I knew that I couldn’t go without doing something big to celebrate. With that in mind, a few months ago, my sister Ale and I started planning a trip to Tulum to celebrate me entering into a new decade. Although my birthday is in January, we decided that December would be the best time to head down. It’s right before the high season and I could combine my work holidays to get more time off.
Tulum is small compared to other tourist destinations like nearby Cancun, but that doesn’t mean there’s not a plentitude of things to do. Ale and I had more than enough ways to spend our time during the 5 days we were there, and that’s without leaving the city. So, if you’re planning a trip there yourself, I’ve summed up our daily adventures to offer you some inspiration.
