Beautiful spiritual experience!✨ - In a nutshell, our experience was wonderful. I’ve left out much of the details as you MUST experience this incredible evening for yourself! Our guide was Louisa and she’s knowledgeable and very personable. My boyfriend and I went during the end of August 2020 (so the order of some events may change in the future) but we started off the evening by meeting the locals and exploring the land and the Dos Palmas cenote for photos. You can make your own tortilla with a Mayan local which is pretty fun and you get to eat your creation afterwards! The Mayan ceremony then followed where either together as a couple or solo, everyone receives a purification by one of the two shamans and afterwards you’re ready to enter the Temazcal (Mayan sauna). What an AWESOME experience this part of the journey was. Just a note for heat sensitive folks out there - inside the Temazcal, temperatures reach from 120 to 130 degrees Fahrenheit (50-60 Celsius). The cloth door is closed making things pitch black inside and you literally feel like your baking in an oven; it’s intense heat which makes it difficult to breath the first few minutes but the entire experience is so worth it if you’re able to endure. While soaking up the cleansing herbs amid the heat, you can participate in beautiful songs sung by the shaman. After about 20 or so minutes, the curtain door opens and the refreshing night air greets you where the shaman cools you off with a splash of ceremonial water. Then you head to Dos Palmas for a lovely night dip in the cenote. After a while enjoying the cold water, everyone drys off for a traditional humble Mayan dinner of chicken, rice and tortillas with Jamaica (hibiscus) water. You end the night with a stop at the little onsite shop with a mix of Mayan crafted items and other fun souvenirs with the opportunity to chat with the local Mayan family. Overall the entire experience was a beautiful and meaningful one and you even learn a few Mayan words along the way. We loved absolutely every single aspect of this ceremony! The only unfortunate downside is that later in the night after returning to our hotel several hours later, my boyfriend and I had a bout of food poisoning which left us fairly ill, especially me. I’m not sure if it’s the quality of the food/water or if it’s a food cleanliness/preparation matter or if it was just a bad batch of chicken (we are very healthy eaters with who live an active lifestyle so I’m not sure what caused it) but just a heads up to others out there to eat at your own risk. While we would definitely do this ceremony again, we won’t be partaking in dinner afterwards in the future. As I said, everything else was wonderful!

Spiritual Retreat - It was excellent! From the guide to the Shaman to the food. I’m going to do it every time I come back to Cancun.

Worth the trip but can get crowded - It good. But was such a big group 50 . I do not do crowds well I wish I know that there was going to be a big group .it was ok

Great tour - The experience was great. From the ceremony, to the sweat lodge. The Mayan people were great. The traditional village was excellent as well.

Wanted more - I had really high expectations and I wish it were more spiritual. Maybe the groups were too large because it felt a little touristy for me. First time I ever did a sweat lodge and that was a powerful experience…I enjoyed it and felt great afterwards… Although It’s not for everyone. Bring a towel and change of clothes. And mosquito repellent !

Not the best organization - While the actual Temazcal experience was great the disorganization of this event was really disappointing. We drove to town bc we were not staying in a hotel. I called them and they assured me we would be back by 10pm. We were told to meet the van at certain location at a specific time and they made us wait in the sun with no shade for over an hour. There was no answer at the agency’s number bc it was after hours. No other way of communicating with them. When they finally arrived to pick us up, we were their only second stop. Once we got the place, we had to wait around for another hour before all the other vans arrived. Once the entire experience was over, we had to wait another hour for people to “shop” in the very expensive store. they finally drove us back at around 11, by this time the parking lot was closed. We had to take a very expensive taxi back to our rental. I would only recommend this company if you don’t mind waiting around for a while and waisting time

Worth it but not the small group promised - The Mayan dinner, the cenotaph and the ceremony were all memorable. However this was advertised as a small group activity but was definitely not. We started as a small group and then joined other groups bringing total to over 30 people. Transportation was late and guide seemed to lack knowledge there were a number of times we did not know what was going on

Stood up - We never got to go! We were never picked up from our hotel. Everything was confirmed but no one ever showed. We called multiple times and no one would answer.
