Are you ready to turn your phone into a personal tour guide? This app offers a fully-guided experience - just like a local giving you a personalized, turn-by-turn, fully-guided tour.

Tulum Ruins
Break out your Indiana Jones hat, grab your whip, and get ready to venture into some ancient Mayan temples! These coastal ruins were once a mighty seaside fortress, and they still hold plenty of secrets. Let’s uncover them!

Explore the remnants of a once-powerful civilization and learn about their culture and technologies, like the ingenious hurricane warning system that alerted them to approaching storms! Piece together the grim, complex religion that governed the Mayans and the fascinating rituals they performed to honor their gods.

All the while, admire the awe-inspiring constructions like the Temple of the Descending God and The Castle, and hear about their significance to the Mayan people. Archaeologists have been at work for years deciphering the secrets of this place, and by the time you’ve completed your tour, you’ll feel like you were right there alongside them from the start!

Information for the Coba ruins was very limited. Most of the sites had less than a minute of information. At least one site had the incorrect picture (the same picture was used for 2 completely different sites) and some of the gps positions were slightly off. I'm still not sure which site one of the pieces referred to.

I’m so sorry about the issue you faced! I’d love to get some more details (support@actiontourguide.com) so I can diagnose the problem. I’m also more than happy to refund or replace this tour to make this right!

Worthless. Downloaded it 100% at my resort, drove 1.5 hours to Tulum. Entered the park and opened the app. Selected "start tour" and absolutely nothing happened. Walked around Tulum for over an hour with the app open and never a word of guidance. Closed and reopened it a few times, no change. Nothing but a blank screen with "Cancun" at the top. Ended up joining a guided tour already in progress and paid that guide.

Thanks for letting us know. It sounds like the tour map didn’t properly download while at the resort. Did you hit Start Tour after downloading and did it work then? And did it revert to a blank screen while at Tulum? Any details you can provide will help us resolve the issue: support@... Please let us know if you visit any of the Mayan Ruins again.

Works well, used it for Tulum, Coba and chichen itza and it was great to get context about the ruins, definitely would have missed out part of the experience of the places if didn't have the explanation behind the spots. Things to improve though are in coba there's a whole section of the south ruins with nothing in the app. Also it would be nice to disable the automatic playing of sections based on gps, as it will stop what you're currently listening to, or start playing in my pocket.
