Highlight to our holiday! We had an absolutely fantastic day with Adventure Mexico and would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to experience more than just the resort life. Our day began with an early hotel pickup at 6:30am, and from the start everything was seamless. We were provided with water and soft drinks throughout the day, which was incredibly appreciated in the Mexican heat. Our first stop was the archaeological site of Tulum, where we learned about the fascinating history and culture of the Mayan people. Our guide, Arturo, was outstanding—professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. His passion for Mexican history, Mayan culture, cenotes, and the local area really brought everything to life. We learned so much and found every part of the tour engaging and interesting. The cenotes were absolutely breathtaking. Arturo shared fascinating facts about the caves and their history, making the experience even more special. The scenery throughout the day was simply jaw-dropping. One of the highlights was lunch at a family-owned Mayan restaurant. It was such a unique and authentic experience. The facilities were clean and well maintained, and the food was delicious. I enjoyed a traditional beef stew, while my husband Jon had tacos—both were absolutely amazing. As a wildlife lover, I was also thrilled to spot pelicans, an osprey, vultures, motmots, and several other beautiful birds throughout the day. By the end of the tour, we felt completely relaxed, refreshed, and connected to the incredible culture and natural beauty of Mexico. Enrique, our driver, was excellent and got us safely back to our hotel by mid-afternoon. This tour was thoughtfully organised, educational, relaxing, and packed with unforgettable sights. Arturo was considerate throughout the day, often stopping to talk in shaded areas to help us stay comfortable in the heat. A perfect 10/10 experience and worth every penny. If you’re looking to get out of your hotel, learn about Mexico’s rich history and culture, and experience some truly spectacular scenery, this is the tour for you!
We booked a trip to the dos ojos cenote and didn't know what to expect. From the moment we were picked up we when it was going to be a good time. Eddy was our tour guide and made the whole trip better than it could have ever been. He was informative, funny and hospitable beyond what his job requires. Yosmar was a great driver and made sure to get us there and back safely. Next time we are here in Mexico we will only book with absolute adventures and we want to personally request Eddy and Yosmar. Thank you both!
Wonderful experience. Pickup was prompt, driver and guider were professional and friendly. Eddie, our guide, couldn’t have been more helpful and affable. Even the 90 minute commute flew by as we chatted with Eddie and learned about the area. The cenotes were super fun and a perfect way to spend the day with family. We all felt a real connection to our guide and would recommend him and this company without reservation. Thanks Eddie!
Thank you so much for the recommendation! We're happy to hear you had such an amazing time with us. You'll have to come back again sometime soon for another adventure.
We tried to book the Dos Ojos cenote tour for two and the tour operator would only accept a reservation for 4. A tour operator should be able to coordinate a reservation with another couple to get the 4 guests for their van. I've never heard of such a thing!
Hello Andrew, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. For clarity, this tour is clearly listed on Viator with a minimum of 4 participants, which is shown before booking. The tour is operated as a private experience, and pricing is calculated based on the minimum number required to cover vehicle, commissions, guide, fuel, entrance fees, and logistics. Running this tour for only two guests in a 16-seat vehicle is unfortunately not viable. You chose to book the tour for four participants. After the booking was confirmed, you contacted us requesting to change the reservation to two participants. As explained at that time, this was not possible due to the stated minimum requirement. We offered two options: • A full refund, or • Keeping the reservation as booked for four participants We understand that this situation may be disappointing. However, the conditions were clearly stated at the time of booking, and we always strive to be transparent and fair with our pricing. With over 2,000 five-star reviews, we take pride in providing honest, high-quality private tours and clear communication. We wish you all the best in your future travels. Kind regards, Absolute Adventure
