Great tour! Marco is the best!!! - We came to the Akumal turtle tour only (not the full day) it was beautiful! The tour guide for snorkeling took a bunch of photos for me and my husband since it’s our honeymoon and we couldn’t take our phone in the water. Marco was so nice and helpful. Even had a cold water for us on the van when we were done! Highly recommend if you want to have a quick guided tour and not commit yourself to a full day.

Unforgettable experience between Tulum and Cenotes - We had this wonderful experience together with the Raul guide from Ekinox agency. The trip started from Akumal, a wonderful site overlooking the coast of the Caribbean Sea, where we could swim for about 45 minutes together with a local guide inside the protected marine reserve; here we could observe closely the sea turtles that live in the area (about 1 km from the coast) and enjoy the beautiful coral reef. The visit continued to the archaeological site of Tulum, an important Mayan foundation that stands between the coast and the plain. Afterwards, at about 20 minutes, we moved to go for lunch at the Mayan cooperative, where we could appreciate the local cuisine, the typical Mexican beans and the delicious meat of the place (try the Cochinita Pivil). In addition, we were able to participate in a purification ceremony with a Mayan shaman and see up close how the production of chocolate from the cocoa nut was carried out. At the same time, we then took a bath in two cenotes located near the structure; the Mariposa cenote, whose bottom is really shallow, great for shooting with video and photos of the surrounding natural context, and a second, really characteristic, underground and a few meters deep, one of the most beautiful we had the good fortune to visit in Mexico. What can I say, we returned in the early afternoon to the structure, but the excursions with Raul and with the Ekinox group are really experiences to live if you pass around here!

Tulum, Cenotes and Swimming with Turtles in Akumal - All great. The guides (Carlos Moo and Fredy) are great, they explained everything very well, they are super nice and they care about us enjoying the excursion.
The very cool cenotes and with exclusive use for customers who go with the company.
In the swim with turtles we could see many (plus some extra animals like barracudas and various types of ray blankets).
100% recommended excursions and a big applause to the guides Carlos Moo and Fredy, because it gives them an added value to the day.

Hike to do absolutely!!!! - Excursion to do absolutely, both for places and for top guides.
Raul was very good, speaks very good Italian and explains many details that you would otherwise miss. Super friendly and always available for explanations and very useful advice.
We started the day swimming with turtles in Akumal. Being the first thing you do the sea was not so “dirty”, we saw many turtles of different sizes and also the coral reef.
Afterwards we visited Tulum, and Raul gave us a very good explanation of all the artifacts that were there, with so many details and curiosities about the Mayans.
After this we went to a Cenote where we also had lunch with typical Mexican food very very good. There were two Cenotes, one indoors and one outdoors, both worth making. Also there, Raul gave a demonstration of how the Mayans made delicious chocolate.
We recommend doing it absolutely.

Full day in Tulum, turtles and cenotes accompanied by our guide Raul and driver Aldo - Today my partner and I went on this excursion and had a great time. First we went to see turtles and fish... one pass, we loved it. Then we went to visit the ruins of Tulum, we learned a lot about the area and how the Maya lived. Finally we went to eat and then to bathe in two cenotes. A full day. Our guide was Raul super nice, helped us in everything and was very clear giving us all kinds of directions. What I value most is the organization and very good vibes I was trying to make it enjoyable and fun. A special mention to Aldo, our driver who took us everywhere and offered us water every time we got on the bus. Wonderful both of you, very good job.

special excursion to Tulum and cenotes - beautiful experience, made even more special by our guide Carlos Flota who passionately guided us through archaeological finds, swimming with turtles, a typical Mexican lunch and the unmissable bath in the suggestive cenotes.
Highly recommended!
