The 15 Best Cenote Tours in Mexico

132 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.8 average  ·  from $26

Cold, clear and older than every ruin above them. These 15 cenote trips span open swimming holes, half-collapsed caverns and the private ranch cenotes the coaches never reach — with prices, group sizes and how much of the day is spent in the water.

1.Chichen Itza, Cenote, and Valladolid Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 24,293 reviews · 12 hours (approx.) · from $45Our pick

Chichen Itza plus Cenote Chichikan swim and Valladolid on a guided day trip from Cancun, with transport and buffet lunch.

“Incredible tour with tons of information provided throughout by our excellent, caring and knowledgeable guide, Edwin. Highly recommend this experience, I enjoyed every moment. Take the opportunity to get your Mayan horoscope. Edwin was gracious to explain and talk through it with us on our drive back to Playa dell Carmen at the end of the day. While it is a long day, it doesn't feel like it and Chichén Itzá is a place to experience when you are in the area. I could have had more time exploring Valladolid. The cenote was beautiful and the food at the buffet was good. I'm vegan and there were plenty of options…”

“Our guide Tomas was fantastic. We had a great time in tulum, spotting turtles, mantas and fish while snorkeling. If I’ve to point my finger at something it’s the lunch. Maybe the time we went worked against it. As we were literally the last group that made it for lunch.”

ATV jungle ride, zipline canopy circuit, and a cool cenote swim plus tacos, tequila tasting, and a Mayan show from Cancun.

“This was so far away, like an hour from where we were staying, and was such a disappointment and waste of time. The zip lining was very average, nothing special, like 20 feet above the ground in some woods…. The ATV riding was absolutely pathetic. They basically take you on an old unmaintained utility road, that’s full of ruts and bumps, and it’s just not enjoyable at all! The swimming at the end was awesome, but definitely not worth the amount of time and energy getting there, taking buses, getting in line, etc. etc.. Not only that but constant up selling…. Oh and the free lunch? LOL you get two…”

“Great tour. We really enjoyed it. Too bad towards the end, it was raining so we could not see Valladolid. Also we left our Mayan birth calendars on the bus, and the company actually made an effort for us to get them back the next day! Thank you!”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 2,039 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $99

Half-day snorkeling at Akumal for sea turtles plus a Yax-Muul cenote swim, with pickup, gear, and empanadas.

“If you have never been snorkeling before, or if you are snorkeling with children, this is a great tour. The guides are wonderful, professional, and make sure that everyone can use their snorkel and sees the same amount of turtles. Life jackets are also required, so no need to be an excellent swimmer. That said, the tour wasn't at all what I was looking for. Once you get to alkumal bay, there are TONS of people there, and each group takes a small boat out a few hundred yards, you hop in the water, and swim back to shore with your guide. If anyone happens to see a turtle, it…”

“Lots of pros: well organized and fun tour for adults, teens and kids who can swim, small group 12 in a van/3 parties so pickup was fast. BEST part was our guide Lalo and driver Jajo. Lalo was super knowledgeable and entertaining, and he cares deeply about cultural and human connections. He taught us a lot about the history of Mayan culture, Mexico and its amazing people. Cons: worst part was that we had no towels and were freezing after 2 cold swim (same for other family with 4 younger kids who were real troopers). We all assumed Cancun Adventures would provide towels… I checked listing and re-read emails they…”
