Tulum: Social Pubcrawl Barcrawl with Games & Free Shots

Summary

Karaoke rooftop shots and wild games on tulum’s best pubcrawl

You’ll jump into Tulum’s wild nightlife with a friendly crew—think facepaint, drinking games, karaoke if you dare, rooftop clubs with confetti showers, and plenty of free shots along the way. With local guides keeping things fun (and safe), you’ll meet new friends fast and end up dancing somewhere you never expected.

What’s the experience like?

The first thing I noticed was the smell of coconut sunscreen mixed with cheap tequila—kind of sums up Tulum at night. We met outside this little bar just off the main drag, where our guide (I think her name was Ana?) handed out neon wristbands and grinned like she already knew how the night would go. There were maybe fifteen of us, all strangers but not for long. Someone started painting my face with glow paint before I could even protest. It felt sticky in the humid air, but honestly, I didn’t mind.

That first half hour was a blur—free drinks (dangerous), drinking games that got everyone laughing way too loud for 9:30pm, and some guy from Berlin who kept mixing up the rules. Our guide kept things moving without being pushy, which I appreciated because sometimes these group things get awkward fast. Karaoke came next. I swore I wouldn’t do it but ended up singing “La Bamba” with two Canadians who barely spoke Spanish. The staff clapped along; one bartender even joined in for the chorus.

We hit three more bars after that—each one louder than the last. The main club had three floors and a rooftop that smelled like lime and sweat (not as bad as it sounds). At midnight someone’s birthday got announced and suddenly there were candles, confetti, and a round of big tequila shots on the house. The music thumped through my shoes; honestly, my ears are probably still ringing. Our hosts kept checking in to make sure everyone was good—felt safe even when we wandered between venues in a big group.

I left around two in the morning, still grinning and waving goodbye to people whose names I’ll probably forget but whose faces I won’t. If you’re looking for a social pubcrawl barcrawl in Tulum that’s more about goofy moments than just getting wasted, this is it. Sometimes you just need to sing badly with strangers under Caribbean stars—you know?
