Great ride and wearing SNEAKERS - Excellent tour I recommend everyone to do it. Beautiful photos and incredible place. He did everything written in good time. The only recommendation worth remembering is to take and wear sneakers when visiting the cenotes, as there are rocks and if you go barefoot you will suffer a little lol. Biodegradable sunscreen and biodegradable repellent too.

Fun swimming the Cenotes - Our guide was awesome! Explained everything we needed to know on the ride over, then set us free to roam. The cenotes were awesome. Snack sandwich and lunch were good. Highly recommend!

Definitely recommend - Our tour guide, Genner, was amazing! He made sure that we got a (paid) tour guide and shuttle ride from the drop up point in front of the Tulum archeological site to the actual ruins. The paid tour guide at the ruins was extremely knowledgeable and patient with the slower walkers in our group. Furthermore, you get a little bagged meal at the beginning of your shuttle ride (when they picked us up from our resort) and he helped us take photos at the Mother Nature sculpture. Also, the lunch at the restaurant in Akumal was delicious! There were several options of lunch to choose from: 3-4 options of fish, few options of chicken, and a vegetarian option, too! Casa Tortuga eco park (where the cenotes are) was fun! The guide they hire for your excursion sorta sucked, but we still had ample amount of time to swim/explore the different cenotes and then you were allotted some free time to enjoy the opened cenote. I highly recommend!

Great overall experience - This was a really good tour in the sense that you got to accomplish multiple activities in one day! I liked that the guide was in constant contact with the tour company and were able to reshuffle some of the activities so that we did not have to wait long for entrance at any of the sites. It worked out well especially at the Ven a la Luz statue photo op where there wasn’t much of a line (however it was a Wednesday). Casa Tortuga cenotes were a great experience especially the underground ones! A must do! And our guide at casa tortuga was great (a guide who works at the eco park). It was a very long day, but worth it. My only complaint was that our guide waited until everyone was picked up to address the bus, which took over an hour, and I thought it was a bit rude. Please read all the info about the tour… pick up starts at 7am and we got back around 9pm. Would not recommend for very small kids who may get tired or cranky.

Fun Multi Stop Excursion - This was a nice way to see some of the main tourist attractions around Tulum and Akumal, my only complaint would be that I wish we got more then 2 hours at Cenotes Casa Tortuga, as it’d be nice to be able to spend a little longer in the larger open cenotes. But overall it was a lot of fun

Hits Key Spots! - The tour started with a stop to see some cool artwork and take photos and then we went to Tulum. The grounds are beautiful and the time allocated was just enough. No tour guide but there are signs so we had no issues. Then we visited Casa Tortuga. This is an amazing experience and there is a guide. Each cenote stop was fairly short and then we had about an hour at the end where we had to sit around and wait, which was a letdown. The tour said a bag lunch but instead there was a bagged "breakfast" with lunch food and a stop late afternoon to a restaurant. The food was okay, it was a very local place. Lastly we had about 1 hour downtown Playa Del Carmen. I would have preferred more time here rather than the restaurant because there were so many great places. Long day but knocked out great spots in one day so overall it was worth it!

Hot and exhausting - It was okay the bus was two hours late. Told us 7am and we skipped breakfast to be on time. Bad decision!
Our tour guide was rude to the black females. He also threatened to leave me twice for walking up to the bus late. So besides him being unprofessional. It was definitely a great experience. Make sure you bring your own snacks . They surprised us with pork sandwiches which was thoughtful if you eat that kinda of stuff which we didn’t. It’s a all day tour. Maybe 12 hours or so. So I wouldn’t make any plans afterwards.bring a backpack with a change of clothes. Bring cash

Our experience - We did this tour on a Sunday. The guide has attentive and professional. The bus arrived 45 minutes late. They had an issue with one of the passengers who did not want to pay (this was not the tour's fault), but it delayed everything. The guide picked us up and took us to the ruins. We had to stand around waiting for the bracelets, which took about 20 min; after that, we only had 1 hr to walk around and be back at the meeting point. After the ruins, we headed to the mother nature statue, which, let me tell you in advance, the wait was over an hour long. At the statue, they have a 1min per person rule, yet the wait was super long. Although I liked my pictures😊. We ended up living after this since we got tired from waiting in the sun.

Be careful booking with this company - We booked a tour by mistake and notified the operator of the mistake within 10 minutes. They refused to cancel, or to work with us to find an amicable solution.
