Today after breakfast we visit the beautiful ruins of Tulum and Coba. We travel down the coast to the ancient Mayan City of Tulum. This beautiful walled city was built on cliffs overlooking the blue-green waters of the Yucatan Caribbean. Your local LDS guide gives the history and archaeology of the site and suggests what relationship the ancient Mayas may have had to the peoples of the Book of Mormon. From Tulum, we travel deep in the Yucatan jungle to the Coba ruins. After visiting the ruins, we return to the resort in the evening.
