Great Day and Family friendly. Freddy was a knowledgeable guide and Victor was a good driver. We wish to have more time at the cenote and less time trying to sell us souvenirs at shops. Buffet should include drinks in vost especially in the summer. Overall the spots are great, but more time needs to be added to each in order to feel less rushed.

Highly recommended for the variety of experiences that take place in one day. You cannot miss the cenotes. Victor 396 and our guide Freddy were very attentive to everything we needed. It was a pleasure to take this tour with them because they explained many details about Mayan customs.

Jesus and Luigi were amazing for the entire day! They were on time to pick up, informational and funny. My girls loved this day trip and the turtles were a definite highlight!

Our tour began promptly with pickup by Jimmy and Carlos Moo. They were early and we were able to arrive at Tulum early before lines began. Carlos gave us a tour and history lesson before giving us some time to explore on our own. We visited the Cnotes next and basically had that to ourselves as well!! There were 14 of us so it was great. The lunch was delicious. Next stop was swimming with sea turtles and the father and son guides were fantastic. Especially with the 5 children all under 10. Overall this was a great tour and we highly recommend it, Jimmy and Carlos!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that Jimmy and Carlos made your day so enjoyable from the very beginning with a punctual pickup and an informative introduction to Tulum's history. It's great to know that you enjoyed having plenty of time to explore Tulum, the peaceful cenotes, the delicious lunch, and the unforgettable experience of swimming with sea turtles. We're especially happy to hear that the turtle guides took such great care of your group, including the children, making the experience enjoyable for everyone. We'll gladly share your kind words with Jimmy and Carlos. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure soon!

I had an amazing time on the From Cancun: Tulum and Akumal Cenote and Turtle Swim Tour. It was fantastic value for money and such a fun day from start to finish. Our guide, Estrella, was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. He made the tour really interesting and enjoyable, and always made us feel safe and well looked after throughout the day. The lunch was excellent, with a great variety of food to choose from, and our driver was friendly, professional, and efficient. He picked us up right on time and drove safely all day, which made the experience even more relaxing. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Cancun. It was well organised, memorable, and definitely one of the highlights of our trip!
