is it worth it? We are heading down to Cancun next week, and I've always wanted to take a day trip there. It would just be me, as the family doesn't really have any interest.

yeah...it's a long day, so it's not great for little kids. but my 17 y.o. and his three teammates

17, 17, and 13 all loved it. the cenote was a big hit too...but it's a 10-12 hour day for the big bus tours. if you get a smaller group that only comes to your resort you can save an hour or two on pickup and drop off.

I would just do the ruins in Tulum. You can combine it with snorkeling with the sea turtles, which

We went on an excursion that included going to the Coba ruins, swimming in a cenote,

And a tour of a Mayan village, where they made us Mayan food to eat.

It was a pretty amazing experience and climbing the ruins (similar to chichen itza) was a bucket list item for me.

Lil Taz was pretty young so it wasn't as cool for her.

as my family has expressed a strong preference to staying by the beach/pool.

Yeah I can't see your kids enjoying something like that at the age they are (I think)

But it is an awesome experience if you have interest, so I would go if I were you.

If your wife wants to go (or is willing to), they do have kids clubs at the resorts usually.

They may be into a side trip to a Cenote, which are hella cool*

Yes, we stayed in Tulum (so not a resort) and drove to Chichen Itza and had a late lunch in

Valladolid. We left Tulum at the ass crack of dawn to get to the ruins as soon as they opened. I thought the ruins were very cool and well worth the drive. We had our own car the week we were in Tulum so it made these side trips worthwhile
