Couldn’t do the experience because nobody answers the phone and in their website chat anybody attends
Also in their Whatts app they responded hours late … so we could not make a reservation for the family and finally decided another place to go

My husband and I traveled from Cozumel via ferry to get to the Rio Secreto plus tour. Our tour guide was Gustavo and he was the best! We had English and Spanish speakers in our group of 11 and he did an amazing job at translating for both as we went through our adventure. He was very friendly, funny, and knowledgeable. The tour starts where you hop in a van where they take you to the starting area. You go hiking and then come back to change into the wetsuit. You have to rinse off in the open area shower then put your wetsuit, helmet, and life jacket/vest. You go into the cave and have an awesome time swimming, going under stalactites, and learning about the cave systems. It was so much fun! Once we were done we returned our life jacket/vest and it was time for biking. You get a bike and then head to the rappelling area. You get instructions and rappel down. Then you bike back to return you wet suit and change back into your clothes. During the whole tour we had Pablo taking pictures of us. The pictures were amazing! Just be prepared to pay over $100 for the package. I believe for 1 picture it was $30. We had lunch after this and the buffet was delicious. Cochinita pibil was my favorite. We had such a great time and I would definitely recommend this tour. Gustavo, Pablo and the 3rd person that I can't remember the name of did such an awesome job. This is one of my favorite tours so far. I just wish the pictures weren't that expensive or at least include one picture for the memories.

One of the best excursions I’ve ever had! Fer B, our guide, was fantastic. He’s extremely knowledgeable about the cave system and Mayan culture. He was very friendly, personable and safety conscientious. We repelled into the first cave. What an amazing experience! Ive been spelunking numerous times, but never in a wet cave; and the difference is notable. You really feel like you are immersed in the cave. It was a full day excursion and the time flew by. The beauty we saw is indescribable. It’s also the perfect way to beat the Mexico heat. I can’t recommend Fer and this excursion enough. Don’t think about it, just book it!

Amazing experience! Pepe was a fantastic guide! He was very knowledgeable and passionate about his work. It was wonderful to be able to see through his eyes and gain a deeper appreciation of the natural formations and the part they play in history. There was also a short Mayan ceremony/blessing before we went in that was really cool to hear. The buffet lunch at the end was also tasty!

The tour was fantastic from start to finish. We got picked up at our hotel in a lovely air conditioned vehicle. Drop off was quick and we got organised into our group very quickly.

Plenty of sizes for wet suits, life jackets, and shoes. Our tour guide was Milo’s.

He did a great job of switching between Spanish and English and keeping the group engaged.

The tour itself was great fun and a must do for your time in Mexico.

This was booked through the cruise line. Very well organized. You take a ferry to the main land. We boarded the ferry directly from the ship. We then road in a tour van to the secret river.
Our tour guide on the ferry and van were Addy (spelling may be off) she had a partner whose name I cannot remember. They took great care of us. Our tour guide in the cave was Ricardo. They provided walking sticks, helmets, life jacket, wetsuit , water shoes and a locker.
All was well organized. My DH and I are in are low 70’s we did need some assistance in the cave and water. Ricado and his camera man were awesome and provide a hand where needed. We also had some great fellow passengers who all worked together along with Ricardo. Surface of the caves in spots were uneven, sometimes you needed to navigate over some rocks..I think for the most part it was not hard, When you get in your 70’s you get a little nervous with your balance. We walk and go to the gym so I would say we are fit for our age. I personally loved the water we floated in. The caves were great! After the tour lunch was provided. A tour bus picked us up and took us to the shopping area where we had an hour to shop. The guides stayed in the shopping area, and then walked with us back to the ship. Very well organized and all the tour guides were great.

What an amazing experience! Jorge (Aka George of the Jungle) was a great tour guide! He explained everything kept us entertained and brought us into a gorgeous cave system. Highly recommend this experience and it’s one of the top ten National Geographic destinations in the world. If you are down in Cancun or the Riveria Maya you have to come and enjoy the experience! Ask for George of the Jungle and you will have a great time!!!

We took the Rio Secreto Plus tour and it was one of the best experiences of our lives. The place is unique, indescribable, but what made the experience especially magical was the way our guide, Imelda, led the tour, explaining about the caves and the river, from Mayan history to the origin of each formation, all slowly and patiently. (considering our basic level of Spanish), and especially with a lot of love and respect for that place and what she was presenting to us. The environment is extremely well preserved, and the preservation of the cave and river structures was a concern constantly conveyed and explained by the guide.
We had unique moments at Rio Secreto, which will remain in our memories forever, and we are especially grateful to Imelda for providing us with such a unique and beautiful experience.
Everyone who has the opportunity should visit Rio Secreto.

In fact, there is a negative point to be considered, which is the price of the photos. They are very expensive, and we end up being forced to buy them to have the memories. But the experience is so incredible that it's still worth keeping the 5 star review. And I saw some bad reviews about the lunch, but everyone in our group of 6 friends really liked the food.
