Make sure y’all rent a car or some atv’s. Go to the cenotes, ruins, jet skis. Drink and party, safely of course.

Feel like ever since the late great Nipsey Hussle mentioned Tulum on “Victory Lap” Tulum has been on the map and stands as a GEM of a destination.
Let me lay out the situation for you.
1. Tulum is one hour from Cancun. Fly into Cancun.
2. Rent a car. Don’t take a cab or a bus. Try to rent a car. Fun experience because you can drive in another country.
3. Have $40 in one dollar bills if you drive to Tulum. It’s a straight road one hour drive through. You start at Cancun, you’ll cross through Playa Del Carmen and then hit Tulum.
The one dollar bills are for the Mexican window washers. They will stand in the street when you hit that red light in traffic and force their way to your car and wash your windows for a tip. Don’t fight it. Don’t cause a scene. Just give them a dollar or two and say Gracias. Less trouble.
4. They got regular hotels, all inclusives and Airbnb. Can’t go wrong with any of em, but I suggest All Inclusive hotels. Safer, more service, and pays attention to detail.
5. Adjust your eyeballs. Cuz when I tell you… there are BAD bytchES (and I never use the word bytch) everywhere? There are BAD bytchES ERRRWHERE.
And it’s hot. Chicks got they cheeks OUT. Tiddays out. Hair done, smelling like cocoa butter and Beyonce essence. They ready to turn up.
It was staggering the first time I went. I went with my wife. Took a whole day for me to get myself together.
I got more…

6. Chicks dig Tulum because it’s an Instagram paradise. It’s really an eight wonder of the world in terms of the inclusive design. The scale is amazing. Every Airbnb, every road, every building is unique in how it’s built. The colors, the angles and hot it matches the tropical jungle meeting the beach is incredible to behold. You literally can’t take a bad photo. Anywhere. If you’re a young black woman and you wanna upgrade your social media followers or a you have a YouTube, it makes for a perfect vlog.
7. The ratio is Atlanta in 2008 level. 9 women to every man. Walk down the street women were turning their head and sneaking a peek. They ready to mingle. Trust me. If you present yourself decent and know how to not look like an idiot you should have NO problem pulling.
8. Go to the grand cenote. Incredible experience.
9. Tulum has three parts. The suburbs where all the resorts and airbnbs are. The city center where you can see tourist shops and find some great authentic Mexican spots like Yaax Ik. And the super touristy fake Miami part. There’s a long narrow ass dirt road right by the cliff of the ocean and tons of restaurants, night clubs and attractions. Masssssssssssssively overpriced spots that require hundred of pesos but the vibe is definitely on that VIP level.
10. Go to blackintulum on IG and follow. They got the drop on all the dope parties and black people get togethers. It’s a good time but at the same time those events feel local as hell. I don’t necessarily wanna Swag Surf with Jamal and Keisha from Cleveland while Im in Mexico but it’s all good.

Nah. That shyt full of 20 year olds tryna stunt for the gram and overpriced beach clubs. People dragged tf out of it and now it's corny. Ain't nobody even heard of Tulum until a few years ago. It was hippie white folks best kept secret
Ok preciate it breh. I’m going with a big group of people. We got an air bnb with over 10 rooms like 5 pools. Some real playa shyt. Some people bringing they girls and some not so it’s a mix of couples and singles. There for like 5 days. Age range from late 20’s to 40. Didn’t know it was that close to Cancun. That shyt actually annoying me right now cause I actually have to be in Cancun 2 weeks after that. Wish I could of went from one to the other.
How is the nightlife scene? Do they have strip clubs and how are they? That’s some shyt we always do on these overseas trips.
And how is the mix between locals and americas? Like will we be mostly interacting with other tourist or more local people when we out and about?
Thanks for the guide
Tulum is crazy with your boys and a little money. If you're with your lady, Tulum is cool too. If you're in a resort with a large group it might not be what you're looking for. If you and you boys can afford a decent Airbnb. Do it! Ball out and be on the prowl.

Unfortunately I think you’re right now. It’s not what it used to be.
Yea. The whole ' stunt while you on vacay' shyt is on 10 there and now it's being exploited. It's rapidly becoming Miami with bad plumbing. They are pandering to young black folks now with the party themes ,hookah n shyt and charging out the ass. I def remember when nobody gave a damn about going that deep in the jungle and it was low-key.

With leftover PPP funds. That was another thing… people were scamming and used that extra gov money to buy very affordable tickets to an “up and coming” exotic locale.
For the Mexicans it’s a lick. They see Black Americans as Americans… they just see green. And they are very accommodating and invite black folk to spend their money. It’s a great stream of income for them.
It works for black people because there aren’t a ton of spots black people can frequent where they are generally left alone and free to enjoy themselves without being discriminated against or made to feel uncomfortable.
