Great experience and people! - I don’t even know where to begin. Behjil-ha and the people involved are phenomenal! The friends we made, the experience, the lunch, the cenotes…amazing! It was exactly what we were looking for - a way to experience the cenotes with folks who truly care for these special places. I learned so much from them about their village and how they cleaned up and are protecting the cenotes. I was a bit hesitant about visiting three underground cenotes but our guides Marcos and David immediately made me feel comfortable. I wore a wet suit they provided because I’m wimpy with cold water and it really helped. My husband didn’t and was fine. The caves were magical. The guides were informative and lots of fun! My favorite part was when we turned off all our lights and sat in the quiet darkness. Bejil-ha also arranged our transportation. Ivan picked us up and it was an immediate connection. Great conversation, great person. We felt so taken care of that we ended up working with Ivan to organize additional trips, like snorkeling at Akumal with his friends and he even arranged our trip to airport from our hotel. Only the highest recommendation for this experience! Must do! 💗💗💗

So surreal - This was honestly the most AMAZING thing I have ever experienced in my life. The customer service was at a level that far surpasses most places. The guides were knowledgeable, funny, passionate, kind, friendly, personable, and just all around amazing. The cenotes were absolutely astounding- especially the cave. This is a once in a lifetime time opportunity and I hope I can return with my kids one day. I highly recommend this- you will not regret booking this!

Once in a lifetime experience - 10 out of 10 would recommend. The passion these guys have for what they do is on an another level. They were welcoming, polite, and knowledgeable about the area and history of the cenotes. This was all before we even took our excursion, which in itself was a once in a life time experience. I would recommend this excursion to anyone and everyone. It was a breath taking, beautiful experience. Thank you to the crew that showed us their sacred home.
