Questions

Is the trip planner free?

Yes. There's no sign-up and no account. Your plan stays in your browser on this device.

Can I plan an all-inclusive resort stay?

Yes. Load the resort example and edit it, or start from a blank plan. Adding local events is optional.

How do I put my plan in Google or Apple Calendar?

Choose Download, then Add to my calendar. Your phone or computer opens the .ics file and adds each activity as a calendar event.

What happens if I switch phones?

Download a backup file and import it on the new device. Plans aren't stored on our servers.

What's a good itinerary for a week in the Riviera Maya?

Mix rest days with one bigger outing every day or two: cenotes or ruins, snorkeling, an eco-park, an evening in town. The sample itinerary above follows that rhythm, and you can load it and change anything.

Can I mix my resort plans with local events?

Yes. Choose Add Riviera events to see events listed on Riviera Lowdown during your dates and add them in one tap. They sit next to your own plans, and each one links to its event page.

Riviera Lowdown isn't the organizer of listed events or activities. Always confirm times and reservations with the venue or operator.
