About Carey Tours Riviera Maya

Carey Tours is a local, family-run agency offering private tours in Playa del Carmen and Tulum, created with love by Fernando, a passionate local guide and fisherman who has lived in Playa del Carmen since 2018.

With over 20 years of experience in tourism, Fernando witnessed the region’s transformation and founded Carey Tours to share the authentic beauty of Mexico — its nature, history, and Mayan heritage.

Our mission is simple: to provide unique, personalized experiences that go beyond typical tours, connecting travelers with the real Riviera Maya through genuine encounters, comfort, and local knowledge.

At Carey Private Tours, we don’t just offer tours—we craft personal adventures that linger in your memory long after the sun sets over Tulum. With over a decade of insider expertise, Fernando Landeros and our local team invite you to escape the ordinary and dive into the soul of Mexico’s Riviera Maya.

Every journey is yours alone—tailored to your dreams, free from crowds, and woven with the hidden gems only locals know. We’re not here to check boxes; we’re here to spark connections—to the land, the people, and the moments that matter. Rooted in the stunning Riviera Maya, we’re redefining private tours with a promise: sustainable travel that lifts up our communities and exceeds your wildest expectations.

This isn’t just a trip. It’s your chance to discover the Riviera Maya as it was meant to be—untamed, unforgettable, and uniquely yours. Ready to step into the story?

This tour was amazing! Not only were the cenotes beautiful, but our tour guide was amazing as well! He gave us some excellent history lessons on the cenotes and the areas around them. This company definitely knows what they are doing with tours to provide a personalized and memorable experience!

We had a wonderful tour snorkeling and in to a cenote with Yosh through Carey Tours! He was kind, patient, knowledgeable, funny, and added a lot to our overall experience. He even allowed us some time in a beautiful quiet part of the cenote to meditate and appreciate the wonder of it all. We would absolutely recommend Yosh and Carey Tours!
