Gorgeous waters from underground rivers - This was an amazing experience. The water in inlet was what you would expect if you have snorkeled in the ocean before. But the cenote and the cave were spectacular. The cave in particular was my favorite. Such beauty. Jonathan was our very experienced guide and he made the day fun, informative, and full of wonder. I highly recommend this. Don't forget to lather up the sunscreen before you leave your resort in the morning, you will not be allowed to put any on at the snorkeling locations because of the damage that it can do to the eco systems.

Good times with the amazing Laura! - We had a great excursion with Laura. Our tour group was small, only 8 people and all couples. Laura had us all picked up early, snd rides were coordinated so the hotel stops were all close to eachother. Not a huge amount of time shuttling in between hotels. We were the first tour group for the company to the cenotes that day. She kept us moving, while allowing us enough time to enjoy, so that we the first people able to enjoy each place - open cenotes, cavern cenotes, and snorkeling in Ya-Kul. As other review say, no additional hidden fees or taxes required by the tour. And the cenotes and lagoon were private for the tour company so not overly crowded. Thank you Laura for your energy and enthusiasm!! We enjoyed exploring the natural beauty of Riviera Maya!!

Wonderful tour and amazing tour guide - We did the snorkeling, cenote and zip line half day tour. We got picked up at our resort and the drive was great. Lots to look at. Our guide (Laura) was top notch. She made the day so much fun for our entire family. She was accommodating (we had a five year old with us so needed a little extra TLC). The snorkeling was in a secluded area. It was a little murky but that's because it wasn't out in the ocean. The cenote was amazing. The kids loved the zip line and jumping off the cliffs. Highly recommend this adventure.

The best excursion out of the 5 we have done. Great for kids (age 6 and older) - Aaron Rodriguez was an amazing tour guide. He made the trip wonderful for my son and I. He drove us there, led all the activities, and was very knowledgeable. He spoke English fluently and never asked for a tip (although I have been on many excursions and he is by far the best guide I have ever had). He was so considerate and the trip was amazing. Ziplining, swimming in the cenote caves, snorkeling in the inlet, rappelling, delicious lunch, snacks, locker included, NO EXTRA FEES. Just fantastic.

Andres was incredible! Great experience and best buffet! - This whole experience was incredible. We had Andres as our guide, and I wish they could clone him so he can be every tours guide. These cenotes are breathtaking beautiful. We had a lot of fun with our guide and with this company. They really care about their customers and giving us a fantastic experience. I traveled with my wife and four children who all had a great time. The lunch they provided was delicious and probably the best Buffet we had the whole trip. the lagoon they take us to was also very beautiful. Overall, this was a fantastic experience in very well organized. I would recommend this to anyone.

A day we'll treasure forever! - What an experience! We went cliff jumping, zip lining, swimming through cenotes and snorkeling in an ocean inlet. It was a jam packed day! Being strong swimmers helped us get the most out of our excursion. Our guide Marvin picked us up in a marked van from our hotel on time. He clearly explained everything we would be doing and how long each part of our trip would take. He even held my glasses so I didn't miss out on the cliff jumping! The Mayan lunch was delicious! Keep in mind there are areas where you are encouraged not to wear sunscreen (even reef safe) to protect the wildlife. You may want to bring sun proof clothing to wear instead. The best surprise was the company having prescription goggles so I could still see while we snorkeled. Highly recommend!

Fun day outside the resorts. - Fun day! Be expected to travel and wait a little bit. They bused us to a central location where groups split off for the day. It was probably our fault for not asking how long the travel would be, but it wasn't bad. Just be prepared. Maldonado was our guide, great guy who was very knowledgable and patience with everyone. We got to jump in cenotes and explore, swim around the cavern and then it was a short bus trip to the inlet for more exploring. It was my first time snorkeling and I am not a good swimmer but I felt comfortable the whole time.

Fun day out - Overall we really had a great day. The cenote was beautiful but I did find the facility a bit run down. The ladders look a bit questionable and the zipline feels a bit homemade; however, we used them all, nothing happened and we had fun. We really liked the cave, and our tour guide was very knowledgeable. Lunch was nothing special but it filled us up. The snorkeling spot was great, we saw eels and just so many different things. I did like this tour and would recommend it! It could be better if you were given more time. You only get 1/2 hour for each activity.
