Amazing turtle and cenote experience

5.00We visited in September and did the swimming with the turtles and cenote experience. Our tour guide pablo and driver Tom cruise 😂were the best. Pablo clearly loves his job and is incredibly passionate and knowledgable as well as being hilarious! I was really anxious about going in the sea and pablo was so lovey and gave me the confidence to go in the water by being my ‘uber driver’ 😂 we got to see lots of turtles and a stingray and it was just amazing! Thank you so much for the encouragement and gentle persuasion…..we had the best time! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

5.00The trip with Karina and Fede exceeded our expectations. Snorkeling on Acumar beach was great, we saw turtles, rays and fish. Great support from the guides even if you are not snorkeling-trained. Also the underground cenote and swimming through the cave was a great experience !

5.00Ivan Pepper a crack! He accompanied us to everything and gave us the explanations of the tour very dynamic! The cenote is a pass and Ivan messes with us explaining everything with his flashlights. The bathroom with turtles a pass 100% recommended! Then the ruins are a toston if you are not called by history but beautiful views. However, if you are dizzy, take a pill because Ephrem (the bus driver) drives with sorrow. Rest highly recommended
Wonderful experience with Ivan

5.00We had a great experience with my husband! Thanks to Ivan thousand times for his service, his accompaniment and his joie de vivre! If we had to choose a Guide again it would be him. Everything was perfect, thanks to the driver also for his professionalism! The swimming with the turtles was beautiful and the Cenote NOHOCH was a wonderful experience. Thank you a thousand times
Ready for a great time!

5.00Highly recommend booking this tour! Our tour guide Pablo was an awesome guide. He was very informative about cenotes. We went at a great time cos it was mating season and there was a lot of turtle sightings. The whole experience is a must do if you’re in this area.
