Amazing experiences! - Great experience - a really brilliant day out. Started around 8:30am with hotel pickup and took around 30 minutes to get to Tulum. Very very hot and not much opportunity to stand in shade so bring plenty of water and be careful. Lots of interesting and some funny facts from our amazing tourguide. Think we spent around an hour in total at the site. We then headed to cenote swimming which was in a big beautiful cave. 3 chambers, the last one being almost pitch black - not for the faint hearted but its optional to go in that last one. You have to push against the roof of the cave to prevent you from hitting it with your head. The gap between the cave and the water is around 30cm. I had a great time but my partner is quite claustrophobic so this was tricky for him! We spent around 45 minutes in the cenote before heading off for lunch in a nice little restaurant - very good tacos! Got a good bit time to relax before going to snorkel with turtles - so many turtles were seen, think around 15+. Amazing experience that we’ll never forget. We returned to our hotel at around 4pm so it is an almost full day trip. But we had a fantastic time, highly recommend this tour!

Wonderful experience to experience the turtles so close!!! - The snorkeling trip to Akumal turtle bay was a great experience! The transfer was well organized and went smoothly. Our guide accompanied us excellently during snorkeling and guided us through the bay with a lot of knowledge. We were able to observe several turtles up close – a real highlight! Afterwards we enjoyed about 1.5 hours on the beautiful beach. An all-round successful tour that we can absolutely recommend!

- Feel bad for only giving a 3* rating.
Nothing to do with the staff and our transfer guide was brilliant an funny. Sadly purely just due to the season the water was full of seaweed. We really couldn't see anything at all whilst snorkeling and then had to swim and walk through it all at the end. I would do this again in a better season.
