We took the tour with JC, who was fantastic. The whole tour ran about four hours, but that included some driving to the various locations.
The snorkeling portion was fun, we saw four or five turtles and a few schools of fish. The best part of the trip was the cenote. It was beautiful and I learned about their significance to the Mayan people. The flautas at the end were great. My husband is vegetarian which they accommodated. JC also sent us pictures of everything afterwards. We spent $330 USD ($5,700 MX) for both of us, plus tip (don’t forget to tip your guide), which included getting picked up from our hotel.
If you go, plan on a decent amount of walking and about 30 minutes of swimming at a time (the sea can be a bit wavy too, so be prepared for that). I personally would not bring younger children, but teenagers should be fine so long as they’re capable swimmers. It also involves some driving off road, so it gets a bit bumpy, but nothing crazy. JC was very accommodating for us, so ask for him.

Seeing sea turtles in Akumal, exploring a beautiful cenote, learning about its importance to the Mayan culture, and finishing the day with delicious flautas makes for a pretty special adventure! 🐢✨

Unbeatable experience
Our experience was amazing. Our guide, Juan Carlos, served us exquisitely. He went to pick us up at the hotel, then we went swimming with the turtles, saw a lot. In addition, it took us to an underground cenote that was a unique experience, and then we tasted a rich meal in a Mayan reserve. Juan Carlos was super nice and made our day even better, as well as taking a lot of pictures! No doubt I would repeat

Fantastic Day
We had Juan Carlos as our private guide, he was excellent. All of our needs were taken care of with great attention to detail. The snorkeling was very good, seeing 5 turtles and a ray. The trip to the cenote was outstanding. What an amazing natural treasure. Lots to see and experience. The lunch supplied was very tasty. One of our best excursions ever!

Thank you so much for trusting us with your beautiful family! Traveling with 13 people — especially with 5 little ones — is no small thing, and we’re very happy to hear that you felt well taken care of.
Victor and his partner always do their best to look after everyone, especially the kids, so it means a lot to know that made a difference.

This intimate tour was...
This intimate tour was amazing! JC made sure we were taken care of. Snorkeling was fantastic. So easy to get equipment and best. I saw 4 turtles!! It’s hard to put into words what the cenote was like. Bats, clear water, trees, and meditation in darkness. The lunch was delicious and even saw monkeys! Timing of everything was perfect. Highly recommend!
