Thanks for this video, I’m going to Bacalar (as well as Merida and Campeche) in May and have been watching a lot of videos like this and it has taken me a long time to find a travel vloger who’s not a total douche. Finally just a down to earth guy in a band t-shirt exploring, like me.

Hahahaha how did I miss this comment! I love it. Yeah a lot of vloggers are all about them. I’m just trying to inspire people and be honest at the same time.

It’s the best! Pedro Santos is the little town, you have to drive through it to get to Bacalar from Tulum

Thanks for this video. I’m planning to do a trip to Bacalar and the ruins. Your trip is my kind of vacation too, not the touristy noisy party. I hope they don’t turn Bacalar like Tulum.

Oh cool! Hope you get the ruins on a day with no cruise ship tours, in that case it’s divine!

So THOSE ruins are in Bacalar? Amazing!

@TobyNomad 7 ай бұрын

40 minute drive from town. Very close to the northern part of the lake. Well worth it if you time it for when there are no cruise ship tours.

@TobyNomad Awesome! Bacalar is my next destination. Been from Cancun down to Akumal & Tulum. Pacific side from Puerto Escondido up to Huatulco. Then inland all over Chiapas and Oaxaca states but there's something about the Caribbean side of MX that calls me.
