Alltournative tours take you for a real ride

Alltournative is one of the Yucatan Peninsula’s first sustainable tourism tour providers. It began in 1998 as an alternative activity for the Mayan town of Pac Chén. Following the formation of the group, Alltournative began to promote tourism on the basis of equitable economic and social development for indigenous peoples, as well as the preservation of the Mayan jungle’s flora and fauna. Since then, Alltournative tours have offered a variety of excursions to cenotes and archaeological sites around the region, where visitors can participate in a variety of extreme sports and ecotourism activities.

A win-win enterprise

Alltournative has achieved significant sustainable economic development for the residents of each ecotourism project and through its tours in the Riviera Maya and Yucatan, as well as established cultural and ecological preservation programs and promoted Mexico’s natural and cultural treasures such as cenotes and archaeological sites.
