When traveling, to really submerge yourself in a place and learn about its history and discover the best things to do, eat and see, the ideal thing to do is take a tour. Some tours feel rather busy, rushed, and impersonal; well, this is certainly not the case with Kaytours. Based in Playa del Carmen in Mexico, they offer private, personalized tours; basically, let them know what and where you are particularly interested in, and they’ll take you there! Playa del Carmen is a chic, trendy city on the Caribbean shoreline in Mexico, renowned for its beautiful palm-lined beaches and stunning coral reefs. It is also rich in archaeological sites with the amazing jungle to explore and wildlife to spot. BA flies direct from London to Cancun in 10 and a half hours, and Playa del Carmen is then only an hour’s drive.
The company is owned by Kay himself, who started the business after moving to Playa del Carmen from Germany in 2012 and working for other larger tour operators. Realizing the need for a more personalized, customizable tour company, Kaytours was born!
The tours can be run for all group sizes, so would work well with a family traveling together or for a wedding party or just a group of friends. The starting place can be Cancun, Playa del Carmen, Tulum, Puerto Morelos, Puerto Aventuras, or the Riviera May. Timing is vital with Kaytours, they really try to beat the busiest times for the main tour companies and ensure that you visit these fascinating historical sites when it is quieter and more peaceful. Clean, air-conditioned transportation is provided from your hotel, and a cooler with snacks, fruit, bottled water, and drinks are also provided. All entrance fees are included, just bring money for lunch, souvenirs and of course, tips. Most of the tours include some swimming or snorkeling, so bring your swimming gear too! The team of tour guides are all incredibly knowledgeable, patient and make the tours really fun – they even email you the photos they take on the tour!
