Great Value!

What an amazing excursion! They picked us up at our resort and dropped us off. It is recommended to bring water shoes and a water proof phone pouch however they are also available for purchase. After we went to the first two cenotes we were provided lunch which was really good (was part of package)! We booked with Cesar through Nexus Tours he was great!

Worst Tour Experience

Unprofessional company, bookings with them confirm you and after many hours you cancel the last minute tour. I don't recommend it at all

Operator response

El tour fue reembolsado por problemas con el clima No fueron "muchas horas" tampoco fue de ultimo momento Para cualquier lector, hay tours que dependen del clima, en caso de cancelaciones por el clima se provee el reembolso completo

I wouldn't buy it again

The truth is, the guides are excellent, however the cenotes are nothing extraordinary (the water is very dirty and green) and for the price I would definitely not hire them again, there are many that are cleaner and you can get there on your own due to the proximity to Playa del Carmen, I assumed that because they were from the

Cada cenote tiene diferente vegetación y acondicionamiento, los cenotes no son sucios, simplemente tienen ese color debido a la vegetación y ecosistema en ellos Lamentamos su confusión, esperamos que pueda seguir aprendiendo y conociendo sobre los cenotes

Thank you Aldo and all staff!

Aldo was our amazing guide of the day and made sure things went safely and seamlessly . I lost my glasses at the first stop (100% my fault!) and the staff here FOUND MY GLASSES at the bottom of a cenote. Unreal!! Thanks so much to the whole team who made sure my family (including 9 year old daughter) had an incredible time. This tour is great for anyone from adventurous to totally chicken (tons of places to just sit out if needed). I can’t say enough about this tour— thank you thank you thank you!

The best of the Xcaret group trips!! Xenotes Tour. No one should miss it when being in the Rivera Maya.

My favorite part was rappelling down to the closed Xenote, jumping down all the zip lines. And kayaking with my little son, the tour was made too fun by our tourist guide Noe, from the Xcaret group, very talented, very funny his way of guiding us through all the cenotes, very funny, and very wise at the same time, he gives you very clear explanation of the trip. I would do it again and a thousand more times!!!!

beautiful, and very well organized

4 cenotes reserved for this company. all different, all very well equipped to do one or 2 sporting activities, meals, routes, activities, transport between the cenotes very (too?) organized. we are dealing with a very professional tourism company. The result is still very good, everything comes together very well. and these 4 cenotes are very beautiful.
