Discover the iconic Pink Lake of Las Coloradas, a surreal destination in the heart of the Yucatán Peninsula. Just steps from the Mexican Caribbean, this guided adventure by Tourballoon Travel takes you beyond the postcard and into a vibrant biosphere.

Begin with panoramic views of the pink lagoons, then board a boat through Río Lagartos Reserve, where flamingos, pelicans, and crocodiles thrive. Feel the breeze, snap perfect wildlife photos, and connect with nature.

Experience a traditional Mayan clay bath and unwind on a quiet beach. Later, enjoy a local meal featuring fresh fish, ceviche, or seafood soup.

For the daring, an optional visit to a crocodile farm offers a wild encounter. You can even touch and feed them if you wish.

More than just a tour, this is a full day of color, tradition and adventure in one of Mexico’s most unique ecosystems.
