We visited Sian K’aan with Eli and it was spectacular. He is so fun, entertaining and knowledgeable. The Cenote afterwards was a perfect compliment- situated in the jungle above ground with fish and turtles. A truly unforgettable experience.

The tour takes you in a boat through 2 beautiful lagoons, into a river where you can float with the current for about 30 minutes. Or you can explore through a boardwalk. The place is a national treasure.

Great day out. Floating down the Mayan canals was a unique experience and we found it very relaxing. Our guide Eli is very knowledgeable and has a great personality. Really enjoyed lunch at a local restaurant.
Thank you for taking the time to review us, we appreciate it! We hope to see you again!
Our guide, Rodrigo, was super professional and friendly. Sadly, the Muyil ruins we were scheduled to see were closed due to maintenance but Rodrigo took us to Cenote Corazon instead. We were asked beforehand if this switch would be ok. The entire tour was so much fun and informative. The lunch we had was super yummy. It was definitely a private tour as it was just me and my partner. I highly recommend this your and suggest you ask for Rodrigo, he will take great care of you!
Thank you so much for your review! We hope to see you again for another adventure!!
We had an awesome day with Rodrigo cruising through the jungle! Absolutely loved floating through Chunyxché. It was truly magical to float in the crystal waters with the currents and the birds. We learned a lot along the way too! As the archeological site was undergoing some construction, Rodrigo took us to a beautiful Cenote with very few people instead. We were able to snorkel and lounge and could have stayed there all day. To top it off, Rodrigo took us to eat the best food we’ve had in Tulum. Perfect day! Highly recommend :)

What a great day trip. We went to the reserve and traveled by boat to a part of the lagoon where we floated a mile or more to a take-out point, through a beautiful area. Then we walked back and got the boat, and went to a cenote - really lovely. The lunch was great, very nice food and a great ambience. Our guide, Eli, was the best!
