Sea turtle and cenote tour

5.00We had a truly wonderful tour with Manny our guide and Dennis our driver! Our kids 10, 7, and 3 loved it. We saw lots of sea turtles and Manny was great with our 3yo who was unsure and she held onto a buoy happily and swam beside us. Our 10yo braved the dark cave cenote and feels very proud of herself. We all swam and basked in the magical ness of the cenote! Highly recommend manny and Dennis with tours with Mike!

5.00We had the most amazing experience swimming with turtles and a private cenote tour. Manny was the best tour guide, photographer and driver. He made our experience so wonderful. He was so amazing with our kids and we felt so safe the entire time. He even took us to playa del Carmen to a local taco place and we had the most amazing lunch. We had the cenote all to ourselves for the first 45 minutes and it was the coolest most unique experience we've ever had. 10 stars for this experience and we highly recommend Manny. Thank you so much for giving us memories to last a life time!!!!
Snorkeling and the caves!!!

5.00We had an amazing time swimming with the turtles and visiting the cenote. Our guide Manny was fab - he had lots of knowledge and was extremely helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. He got us to the bay early before it started to get busy which made the experience more special. He also took us to a Mexican restaurant for tacos which were incredible! Would absolutely recommend this trip.
