Birdwatching in Sian Ka´an Muyil from Tulum

About 20 minutes south of Tulum, we have the opportunity to enjoy an incredible bird diversity, learn about the current Maya culture and the ancient Maya civilization as we walk and look for birds in the village and archaeological site of Muyil.

We explore different habitats in the village with different types of vegetation: mature semi-deciduous jungle in the archaeological site of Muyil and some fresh water wetlands as we walk through flooded jungle using a boardwalk until we reach a fresh water lagoon.

On this tour it is possible to identify from 40 to 80 species of birds (depending on the time of the year).

There is also the possibility to add a boat trip across two lagoons and a lazy river floating experience to this tour. We float in a truly unique setting, listening to the sounds of nature, among mangroves, orchids & bromeliads.

Be aware that if you are the only client booking this tour, we will offer you to go another day or offer you to do the tour in private (230 usd)

Our first stop will the Mayan village of Muyil which provides an excellent opportunity to see a vast number of species.

The archaeological site of Muyil marks the entrance to the Biosphere of Sian Ka´an. We will walk through the site in search of birds whilst learning about this archaeological site which was once an important Mayan trading post.

/! Muyil site is currently closed for an undetermined amount of time. We will send you a 10 usd refund for not being able to enter the site. No worries, we’ll still see a large amount of bird species in Muyil and its suroundings.

On option (extra fee applies) we can take a boat across a couple of lagoons and canals to look for wetland birds and take part in a relaxing float in crystal clear water and mangrove tunnels. Ask for this extra after booking!
