5.00Excellent tour, spectacular places, the visit to the cenote was the best, the food was exquisite, and the experience of swimming with the turtles was unforgettable. Iván the guide was very kind, along with César the driver. 110% recommendable.

5.00It was a great day!!! The cenote and sea turtles were my favorite part and the food after the cenote was amazing. But the BEST part was our guide Ivan and driver Cesar - they helped make it fun relaxing and informative.
Amazing day

5.00This was the perfect day trip we chose for our anniversary. Our guides Camas and Carlos were great and made us feel welcomed from the moment we entered their van. Camas knew history of the areas and fun details and threw in the best humor. He took great care of us. They picked us up and dropped us off at our resort and it was great. The sea turtles were awesome to experience so close, two came up right in front of us! Talum was really awesome to see too, but the favorite was most definitely the cenotes. Absolutely breathtaking. If we ever come back, we will for sure be doing another cenotes tour! Maybe even doing the scuba experience next time! The entire cenotes park was such a fun vibe, they provided us lunch which the best food we have had our entire trip, including our resorts restaurants! Highly highly recommended! Thanks so much guys!

5.00I booked the tour for Tulum and it turns out the experience with Omar and Yaris was the best part. Yaris was so kind toward my son. She was so helpful in the cenote and the ocean. Both Omar and Yaris are gems and they truly made the experience. Tulum was beautiful and the cenote was mystical. I wanted to spend time just floating in the dark. And Yaris passion towards biology made it all the more rewarding. The cenote really was the highlight but swimming with the turtles was amazing too. Overall this was one of the best experiences I have ever had and again it was due to the amazing destinations and the kindness of Yaris. Simply amazing and highly recommended. Very fair price for all that you get to do. If you are on the fence don’t be. Book this tour!
Great fun with such unique experiences
