At Tourbase, we've handpicked the top wildlife tours in Tulum to ensure that you experience the very best of what this incredible location has to offer.

Tulum is a haven for nature enthusiasts, boasting a diverse array of ecosystems that are home to a wide variety of fascinating wildlife. From the lush jungles to the crystal-clear waters of the Caribbean Sea, there's no shortage of opportunities to encounter the region's most incredible creatures.

One of the most popular wildlife tours in Tulum is the visit to the Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is a sprawling protected area that encompasses over 1.3 million acres of pristine wilderness. On a guided tour, you'll have the chance to explore the reserve's unique ecosystems, including mangrove forests, wetlands, and tropical forests. Keep your eyes peeled for the elusive jaguar, as well as monkeys, crocodiles, and a dazzling array of colorful birds.

For those who prefer to explore the underwater world, Tulum's snorkeling and diving tours are not to be missed. The Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, the second-largest reef system in the world, lies just off the coast of Tulum. Here, you can swim alongside sea turtles, manta rays, and a kaleidoscope of tropical fish. Some tours even offer the chance to snorkel or dive in the mysterious cenotes, ancient sinkholes that are sacred to the Mayan people.

If you're looking for a truly unique wildlife experience, consider a night tour in the jungle. As the sun sets, the forest comes alive with the sounds of nocturnal creatures. With the help of a knowledgeable guide and a flashlight, you'll have the chance to spot everything from owls and bats to spiders and snakes.
