“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…”

From start to finish, he went above and beyond to make sure we had the trip of a lifetime. Swimming with the sea turtles in Akumal Bay was absolutely breathtaking. Alejandro knew exactly where to take us, and within minutes we were gliding alongside these gentle, majestic creatures in crystal-clear water. It was one of those pinch-me moments you never forget. He was also very mindful about respecting the turtles and the environment, which we really appreciated. The cenote visit was pure magic. Stepping…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 627 reviews · 12 hours · from $971

From Riviera Maya, visit Cobá and Chichén Itzá, then swim in Cenote Chichikan, with lunch and a brief Valladolid stop.

“Beto was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable, charming and cared so much about the Mayan culture. He was so interesting to listen to. Coba was really cool - we went early in the morning so there was no one else there. The cenote was excellent. The food was a little bland but did the job. Chichen Itza was amazing to see - could have done with a bit longer (maybe through removal of Valladolid from the itinerary as we didn't stay long enough to see much). The coach air con was so cold, so make sure to bring warm clothes!”

From the open air, partially underground and then full cave walking tour this was the best time we spent in Tulum. The entire process from pickup to drop Off went perfectly and the lunch stop was a perfect break in the middle of our day. Strongly recommend this tour as you’ll likely never see anything like…”
