Absolutely amazing tour. Really friendly hosts, really knowledgeable, Tulum was amazing, swimming with sea turtles was unforgettable and the cenote was so much fun! They didn't make you do the high jump if you didn't want.

This was an amazing tour with Adrian and Erick. Adrian was very informative, nice, very fluent in both English and Spanish. This was probably our favorite day on our trip. We got to see tulum ruins, a beautiful cenote, have authentic Mexican cuisine and finished with snorkeling with turtles. Would highly recommend these guys for your trip!

Great way to spend a day! This is a well organized trip. It was a small enough group not to feel crowded and there was plenty of time at each stop. Swimming in the cenote was perfect after walking at the ruins. Lunch was a pleasant surprise, good variety and homemade options. The cochinita was better than what I had at the resort by a long shot. Swimming with the turtles was so much fun, we got to see quite a few. Our tour guides were Adrian and Michael, both had great energy and made sure we knew just what to expect. Recommend bringing a waterproof phone case for photos and wearing shoes that dry quickly. I wore sandals and was fine but wouldn’t have minded having my other shoes to put on for the ride home. You do need a towel. Thanks to our driver as well for watching our things while we had fun!

We had a great time and learned so much about the ruins and the Mayans from Adrien. He is very knowledgeable and his upbeat funny personality made it very entertaining. Thank you to Fernan as well for driving us all around and being patient.
There is some room for improvement but I think those areas are known. As long as you can look past the commotion during the intake or processing phase of the excursion and the slightly crowded snorkeling experience,everything went smooth and was worth the adventure. Lunch was fantastic and the cenote was amazing! Overall great time and would go back again.

Our guide, Adrian, was so funny!! He made the trip extra special. He educated us and kept us all moving in the right direction with humor and a big, positive attitude. We enjoyed the ruins, lunch, the center, and the many turtles. The guide for the snorkel really made an effort to get us up close with many turtles. They were so cute. We really enjoyed the day.

A very good way to visit all places in one day. Everything was well organized, nice guide, good lunch.
You just need to take into account that everywhere we have about one hour, but that is the price for a full program in one day.
Tulum - beautiful place, but a lot of people and I would like to stay longer and ideally first thing in the morning.
Cenote - very nice, I enjoyed it (except for the mandatory vests)
Diving with turtles- beautiful place, but again a lot of people, the guide always finds a turtle, calls the others to look at it.
You can't influence the interest of the other visitors in a particular place, if they accept it, this trip is great.

Herlan was wonderful!!!! He had so much amazing knowledge, kindness and so very organized!! The driver (I forgot her name) was on time and a great driver! The cenote was BEAUTIFUL!!!! Jump if you can, it’s worth it!! The lunch was so authentic and the restaurant employees were so kind!! The ruins were great and Herlan is so so knowledgeable in the history! Last but NOT LEAST FOR SURE, is swimming with the turtles. As a lover of all animals, I had trepidations about disturbing them. The staff was SO protective of them and their habitat! And you are so, so close to them!! Mommy and baby turtles and stingrays too!! And the fish!! So great!! I couldn’t suggest this tour more!!

This was seriously my favorite tour of my entire trip, and one of my favorites of all time. It was so well organized and executed, and everything from pickup to drop off went exactly as you'd hope. Tulum was lovely, the cenote was perfect and not crowded, and we saw so so many turtles!!! A true highlight, and well worth the money. If you're deciding between excursions, book this one!

Having been to Chichen Itza 10 years ago this activity had a lot to live up to.... The trip was guided by Irlan - very nice and knowledgeable guy who brought things to life with his very well structured and delivered explanations. That side of things was really good. Downsides included - 1. You can't get close enough to the structures to really see any detail. 2. Loads of work going on constructing new facilities make it look and feel like a building site. 3
The trip included two other activities, swimming and diving in a cenote and swimming with turtles. Both were a disappointment for us - having read previous reviews quoting " non swimmers were really looked after by the local guides" which was complete rubbish. I'm a very strong swimmer and experienced snorkel diver but my wife is not. The result was that I had a couple of jumps into the cenote and didn't even bother with the turtle swim as I could not let my wife risk the clearly arduous swim out to the area in the reef as the sea was fairly rough due to high winds. When the rest of the group returned they were clearly not that overjoyed with the activity. Oversold, underwhelmed, expensive, slightly dangerous (in my view) for non/not strong swimmers. Our £180 could have been better spent. Final comment - Irlan (the tour guide) is a very nice and knowledgeable guy (particularly on the Tulum portion of the tour) and he did as good a job as he could with the rest of it.
The reality did not meet our expectations.
