“I would not book any tour through viator again. It was extremely hard just to get the meeting point and the time from the agency taking us. Although they did email me about 8 hours before the excursion, it was a headache. Everyone on the tour got wrist bands for a free buffet however, viator did not offer that option. 100 percent recommend the tour it was awesome but do not book through here, majority of other couples on the bus said they booked at their hotel and/or Expedia”

Lalo was super knowledgeable and entertaining, and he cares deeply about cultural and human connections. He taught us a lot about the history of Mayan culture, Mexico and its amazing people. Cons: worst part was that we had no towels and were freezing after 2 cold swim (same for other family with 4 younger kids who were real troopers). We all assumed Cancun Adventures would provide towels… I checked listing and re-read emails they…”

From start to finish, he went above and beyond to make sure we had the trip of a lifetime. Swimming with the sea turtles in Akumal Bay was absolutely breathtaking. Alejandro knew exactly where to take us, and within minutes we were gliding alongside these gentle, majestic creatures in crystal-clear water. It was one of those pinch-me moments you never forget. He was also very mindful about respecting the turtles and the environment, which we really appreciated. The cenote visit was pure magic. Stepping…”

“This was a very nice day out. Our guides, Oscar and Cesar were great, friendly, professional, and very nice. The Mayan ruins had no shade so be prepared for blazing sun and lots of walking in it. Turtle swim and Cenote swim were awesome. I did have a slight panic attack while swimming with the turtles, but our tour guide and turtle guides handled it amazingly, calmed me down enough for me to do it and stayed with me in the water. If it wasn't for Oscar, I would have missed out in seeing the turtles. Cenote water is very cold at first but you get used to it. Lunch…”

Perfecto and Jesus, were great guides. We stayed with Perfecto, as he did the guided tour in English, but both were professional and amusing. We had plenty of time at Tulum (2hrs), with a great insight in to the Mayan people and this still allowed us time to wander around on our own. The two cenotes included were excellent and much easier to access than the one we visited on a Chichen Itza…”

I’d like to visit again in a different season so it would be comfortable to hangout longer Cenote: Wonderful. I didn’t expect it to be an exclusive location. It’s limited to a few different tours which means there were very few people there. A couple of families were leaving when we arrived and then it was just our group. I traveled with my daughter and there were just 6 others in our group. Felt very relaxed and we had space to ourselves. Tacos at the cenote were…”

Mitch picked us up on time and got us where we needed to go safely. Omar was a great tour guide and made the adventure fun”

Only downside is that we were very hungry after 6 hours and felt that a snack after the 1st excursion (that we didn't like) wasn't enough; we would have preferred a sandwich and fruit after the 2nd excursion. Having lunch at the end of the day on the beach was welcomed and delicious!”
