Private Tulum & Cenotes tour

So we visited Tulum and 2 Cenotes with Leo and Adrian, and would thoroughly recommend this trip. Leo picked us up in a well conditioned Toyota, he wasn’t allowed onto into our resort area as planned so called ahead and we got the shuttle to the main gate, no problem to wait for us. During a quick drive from Playa del Carmen to Tulum Leo told us what to expect from the trip and also information on the area and the people living here. At Tulum he handed us over to Adrian who took great care of us, tickets had all been sorted out in advance and we were warned against the tourist traps on the way in. Adrian was very informative and we were amazed to hear that what remains of the documented Mayan language was deciphered by a Ukrainian and will find out more about Yuri. Tulum itself was of course amazing. Then Adrian took us back to Leo and we discussed which Cenotes we’d like to swim in - when we booked (via Booking.com) the info we had was it’s just swimming not snorkeling, this is not the case, you can snorkel. If you have masks and snorkels do take them, if not Leo is equipped. We went to Cenote Nicte-Ha which had waterlillies and Leo also came into the water to show us the underground part. The second cenote I don’t have the name but it was nearer the ocean and we swam to where the underground river surfaces. After swimming, delicious tacos and watermelon juice in a local restaurant. A fantastic trip, I can’t post photos as they are on my camera but will add later if I can. If you are nearby do this trip!

This is the second time that I have booked with Boutique tours and it was a great experience! It was so easy to arrange the tour for 4 of us and communicate any concerns with them. Caleb was our guide and he was very professional and accommodating. He helped us plan our day, picked great cenote options and even offered suggestions based on what we wanted to experience. He even took us for local tacos when that wasn't part of the itinerary! Overall, we had a fantastic day with him especially since he is so personable and made sure we were comfortable. I would definitely recommend them if you want a fantastic experience! I definitely plan on booking with them for future trips!

We had an amazing experience touring an underground river/cenote with Leo. It was the best thing we did on our trip, and we did a lot of amazing things. He took us out for lunch, and that too was a highlight - best meal we ate of the whole trip. Joel took us on the tour of the Tulum ruins and that too was great. He was very knowledgeable and shared interesting family history about Mayan culture. He just could not beat 0.5 miles of cave swimming with stalactites, so Leo wins best event of the trip! Worth every penny.

This was a fantastic tour of the Mayan ruins at Tulum, followed by swimming in two cenotes - one underground, the other above ground. Our guide was great, and came with a nice air-conditioned minivan. He made everything easy. He was also our guide through the underground cenote. The tour arranged a separate guide to take us through the ruins - he was really knowledgeable too. In short - this was great for our family of 5; a bit more money than a group tour but so much easier. We also got to get out earlier and get to the sites with fewer people.

Amazing, as always! We’ve now had three tours with boutique Mexican tours, each with a different guide and everyone is so professional and makes us feel at ease. The experiences are great and educational and we are well taken care of.

Can’t say enough about this tour experience. Paul was considerate, fabulous, and very knowledgeable. Mayan Ruins (Sacred Place), Tulum Beaches, Hotel Row, Cenotes (we didn’t swim but we were awed by the beauty). Topped it all off with an authentic taco lunch!

Excellent I loved it. Caleb our guide and Yuri the driver were the most. Thanks to them our tour was amazing.

Wonderful tour! Caleb was a great tour guide. He was knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. The Cenotes were amazing, I highly recommend!

Leo was a fantastic tour guide and driver. He took us through a pitch black cenote cave (with flashlights of course) with bats flying overhead while we swam through. I've never done anything like it before, how awesome. He also took us to the most picturesque clear water open cenote we've ever seen! Joel guided us through Tulum and was outstanding. I can't say enough wonderful things, he connected Maya history to his family and upbringing. He was more than happy to take pictures of us and had an umbrella handy for the sun and heat. Could not have asked for a better day!

We had the most amazing experience on the Tulum Cenotes tour! 🌿 Visiting all three cenotes was absolutely magical—each one had its own beauty and charm. The food was delicious and really added to the day. What made the tour truly unforgettable, though, was our guide Jordi. He was exceptional—knowledgeable, fun, and attentive. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was special, even adding thoughtful touches to help celebrate my birthday. 💫 Thank you for making this trip one we’ll always remember. Highly recommend this tour and especially Jordi to anyone visiting Tulum!
