It was fun! - Great tour! Well organized as well. Just keep in mind that it is a SHARED tour with others so dropping/picking up can eat up some time.

Best cenote tour ever!! Highly recommend ! - This was the best cenote tour! It was private with a group of about 5. We spent an hour in each cenote and learned a lot about cenotes in the Yucatan. Our tour guide Toledo was the best he made sure we were well taken care of and that we were comfortable and having a good time. He always offered to take pictures and accommodated all of us so well. I hope to do another tour with him. We had about an hour for each cenote and it was the perfect amount of time. At the end a buffet was included and we got free time to explore as well. I cannot recommend this tour enough, I would love to come back and do it again!

10/10 Best cenotes tour out there - To start, my family missed our tour bus pickup because we were a little late to the pickup point, but Guido was so nice and accommodating that he made sure I wouldn't lose my money and instead he referred me to the next pickup point where we were able to get a taxi there and catch the tour buys. That was super nice of him and I appreciated that gesture the most since he was super responsive leading up to the trip and the day of the excursion. This was the best cenote tour if you are looking for more activities and views to see, we were on the move all day and Guido did a great job at making sure everyone felt accommodated and we were all moving at the right pace. We had the most fun at Oxman cenote and I love that they included extra time there for swimming and jumping. The buffet lunch was delicious and kept us full for the remainder of the trip. The drivers got us to our destinations in a timely manner and played some nice music on the way. The cenote tour guides were super nice and explained cool facts about Mayan history. Would definitely do this tour again for the price you pay it is well worth it. Amazing and beautiful cenotes with insane photo opportunities. This tour hits the best cenotes on the map for sure. We all had a blast! 10/10 recommend.

It was small group and they gave me enough time to swim and enjoy the moment, I loved how this tour is not so tight and move around and it was a great time to enjoy myself!! All cenotes were absolutely beautiful and I love to recommend this trip to my friends if they go Cancun!! The coordinator was also so amazing to manage trip and time, I was so impressed!!

Don't book with this company. - Communication was terrible, I asked multiple times to confirm pick up time and never got a response until at midnight that it was in 6 hours. The bus drove over an hour to pick up other people who didn't show up so the guide canceled the entire tour on us and tried to make us do a different tour that we didn't want to. Didnt explain why it was canceled. Was our only day and we couldn't then book anything else. Very disappointed, dont waste your time.
