The cenotes constituted the largest supply of fresh water for the Mayans and were used as natural burial chambers, you will be amazed by the mysticism and beauty that surrounds the cenotes in Riviera Maya.

Great excursion the guide was awesome. He really made the whole experience. His name is on top of my tongue but can't remember. He is a shorter guy that wears face mask around head.

Tour guide Emanuel was very friendly and made the trip very enjoyable Score: Recommended: YES Anonymous from London
This tour is great because it isn't in a crowded theme park. You have a tour guide and a professional photographer take you to 4 different cenote locations with different activities at each location: snorkeling, kayaking, rappelling, swimming, zip-lining, cliff jumping and lots of swimming. They also provide snacks, hydration, and a light lunch. This was my second time doing this tour and I still loved it and had a blast. Our tour guide Claudio and photographer Gina were awesome to hang out with! Score: Recommended: YES Deanne R. from Houston, TX
