Can I get an Uber or Taxi in Tulum?

There are no Ubers in Tulum, but taxis are plentiful and safe. Make sure you check the price of the ride before you get in - taxis in Tulum do not use meters, and are known to increase the price for tourists. If you think the price is too high, just say no thank you and move on to the next one. Taxis may charge more at night as well.

Do you have any recommendations for where to eat, points of interest or things to do?

Yes! Our travel concierge will be collecting travel details from our guests. For those that would like the added convenience and are willing to split transportation costs, please send the following information to Helen after your airfare has been booked:

If you need any help at all booking things for the weekend, don’t hesitate to reach out to our complimentary travel concierge, Helen, for help. 

Should i be concerned about my safety in a foreign country?

For the most part, Tulum is considered safe, with the biggest threats usually being hurricanes, hangovers, sunburns and mosquitoes. However, no place on Earth is 100% safe, and that is true for Tulum. The area around the wedding venue, where the couple recommends all the guests stay, is extremely safe. Always exercise caution when out and about, and refrain from traveling alone or seeking out illegal substances. The majority of crimes that happen are related to the drug trade. 

Do I need a passport?

Yes, you will need a Passport to travel to Mexico. The US Department of State recommends applying for a passport 6-9 months before travel. Most airlines will require a passport that is valid for up to 6 months past the date of completed travel (i.e. the expiration date must be October 2025 or later).
To apply for a new passport, check out this link. To renew an existing one, follow these steps.

Are there any other weekend events i should attend?

There are other events throughout the weekend the bride & groom would love for you to join, however all of them are optional. The weekend schedule can be found in the weekend timeline section and includes additional details, where the bride & groom will be throughout the weekend, and additional activities to check out while you are in Tulum.
