What To Expect
Cenote Nicte-ha
We'll pick you up with a private vehicle from your rental hotel (approx. 40-minute drive to the cenote). We begin our adventure at cenote Nicte Ha, where you can enjoy swimming and snorkeling. This open-air cenote is teeming with small fishes, vibrant lily flowers, and stunning sunlight glistening on the water. Plus, there's a fun little jumping platform to add some excitement! With its easy access to the water and suitability for all snorkeling skill levels, including kids, cenote Nicte Ha is a perfect choice for everyone.
Cenote Taak Bi Ha
Swimming and snorkeling in cenote Taak Bi Ha Ha is an incredible experience! As you explore the underground cave river, get ready to be amazed by the countless stalactites and stalagmites. Don't forget your camera, as this is the perfect spot to snap some truly unique photos, both underwater and above ground. And if you prefer a cave cenote that's not too crowded, you've found the ideal place!

2 Cenote Tour

5.00Josh was amazing! We did 2 cenotes. Sac Actun and Yal-ku lagoon. He did an great job telling us all about the history and was so kind. At one point he did have "save" :) my mom(age 75) because she went a little past where he said to stop and the current got a little to strong for her to swim against. He had eyes on us at all times! The cenotes were both AMAZING! So happy we went with Absolute Adventures!!! Will use them again!!!

5.00Just did the 2 cenotes with lunch tour last week with Josh and Hugo with my wife and 12 and 14 year old. We did the pet cemetery ( sac actun) and the taak bi ha cenotes. Experience was awesome. Josh was an amazing guide taking us through pet cemetery for an hour and a half and then through taak bi ha for another half hour. Our kids thanked us for taking them. It was the highlight of our trip. Comfortable ride each way with Hugo and Josh. Couldn’t recommend this excursion or Hugo and Josh more highly.

Magical Adventure through the Tulum Cenotes.

5.00I couldn’t have imagined a more magical day exploring the cenotes of Tulum. Our guide, Arturo, was so knowledgeable on the best grouping of cenotes to explore, as well as how to navigate through. I could feel the passion that he had for these natural wonders and saw it through my own eyes. Learning about the natural formations, wildlife, and history of Tulum’s cenotes is an experience I’ll never forget. If I could recommend one reservation to make for anyone visiting the Tulum area, it would be a tour with Absolute Adventure. Thank you again Arturo!

5.00Our group of nine was picked up on time at 9am at our Airbnb by our wonderful driver Rodrigo and our vivacious and knowledgeable guide Christina. The van was equipped with cervezas (at an additional charge available at time of booking), water, soda, juice, and napkins. We drove 40 minutes from the hotel district area in Tulum, 10 minutes on a well maintained dirt road. Life vests, snorkeling equipment and a flashlight were provided. The cenote water was cool. Most of our group was comfortable in a swimsuit. I elected to wear a wetsuit (also provided) and was very happy with my decision. My boyfriend was in a swimsuit and got a little cold at the end of the swim. The cave was full of the cutest fruit bats and we had plenty of opportunities to view them up close! It was one of the highlights of the tour for me. This tour was spectacular, unique, and stunningly beautiful! Christina is passionate about what she does and is a truly wonderful person who speaks English fluently. She is also an excellent photographer!!! We spent around two hours in the water and loved every minute! We only saw one other group the entire time we were there. After the tour we went to Juanita’s Restaurant for lunch, where food was included and drinks were available for purchase. If you have the time do not hesitate to book this! The highlight of our trip so far <3
Amazing!!!

Magical Morning in the Cenotes!

5.00Arturo and Enrique picked us up right on time at our hotel and we headed off to tour two cenotes. The first cenote was small and quiet and absolutely stunning. We got there early and had the whole thing to ourselves. The second one was a little bigger with ledges for diving, a nice swim to a hidden area, and a zipline over the whole thing. Arturo taught us so much about the area and was so kind and encouraging with our daughter, helping her feel comfortable and confident to explore at every turn. We saw tons of beautiful fish, frogs, dragonflies, butterflies, and iguanas. The fish swim right up to you so the views are great. Highly recommend taking a waterproof camera. We got some great photos and videos. Our guides were so accommodating and had cold drinks for us. We would definitely recommend a tour with Absolute Adventure, it was a highlight of our trip and we will do another one if we get the opportunity.
