I took this tour which is mainly the transportation from / to hotel entrance and lunch… perfect to know the park on one day… plenty of time and remember the rodeo show at 5pm right at the entrance and from there walk to the night show , espectacular, goosebumps. Beautiful. It was my parents (79 & 89 years old) and my husband and I ( 54 & 56) .

Superbe experience ! From the equipment to the quality of the food to the beauty of the actual cenotes - everything was perfect! 10/10! The tour was one of our holiday highlights. Also our guide Pablo was a super nice, chilled dude who provided us with knowledge about nature and the surroundings and answers all questions. Highly recommend!
