Family Mayan Underworld tour

Our guide, Tania, was amazing; we booked a group trip but it ended up being just us as a family. She took great care to ensure we moved at a good pace wasn’t rushed. The cenote caves were amazing and she did a great job with our teens and made it really engaging for them. It was also unique to go through a cenote cave so I would highly recommend it.

Operator response

Thank you for such a wonderful review! We're so happy that Tania made your family experience so special and engaging. Exploring cenote caves is truly unique, and it’s great to hear your teens enjoyed it as well. We really appreciate your recommendation!

Great snorkelling moment and visit this note

A great experience with our great guide Lea! Francophone guide who allowed us to better understand this visit! A beautiful dive in the morning followed by the discovery of the beautiful private cenote! All complemented by a typical Mexican meal’ in short we recommend +++

Operator response

Merci beaucoup pour votre retour ! Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez passé une si belle expérience avec Léa. Pouvoir découvrir les lieux en français et profiter d’activités variées comme la plongée et la cenote rend la journée encore plus spéciale. Merci pour votre recommandation, et au plaisir de vous revoir !

Wonderful Cenote Tour!

The views were incredible! Marco took my wife and I on a private tour snorkeling in a cenote lagoon to start. He provided all of the equipment that was needed and shared wonderful tidbits of history and geology regarding the cenote. We then went to a private cave with a cenote inside! Very fun and adventurous tour with great insight of the natural history. We then had lunch at a wonderful local taco shop. The best food we’ve had all vacation! Marco was wonderful in every aspect and I would highly recommend him as a guide for this and any other tours he leads!

Operator response

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! It sounds like an unforgettable day filled with natural beauty, adventure, and great company. We're thrilled to hear Marco made the tour so special with his knowledge, attentiveness, and local insight — and that the tacos were a highlight too! We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words. Hope to welcome you again for another amazing experience soon!

Wonderful experience !

We did an AMAZING snorkeling and cenote tour with Ursula. Plenty of beautiful fish and the cenote tour was amazing to see. Our tour guide, Ursula, was super knowledgeable, polite and shared information about the different birds, animals and Mayan culture. After learning so much in a few hours, we would have loved to book another tour however time didn't permit. We would love to come back and tour with Ursula again! Till next time!

Operator response

Thank you for your feedback! We're so glad you had an amazing snorkeling and cenote tour with Ursula, and that you enjoyed learning about the local wildlife and Mayan culture. We’d love to welcome you back for another tour with Ursula in the future.

Great Guide, Great Vibes.

We had a great experience with Ursula showing us the best place to snorkle! It was amazing to hear the knowledge that Ursula and Daniel had to share about local issues and culture. In the tour we eventually went into a cavern where we swam through underground to find a special swimming area that felt so special since it was just our group there. I have pretty high expectations as a traveler but I would highly recommend taking this adventure.

Operator response

We're thrilled to hear that Ursula and Daniel made your snorkeling adventure so special and informative, and that you enjoyed the unique experience of swimming through the underground cavern. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to see you again on another adventure!

Fantastic!

We had a nice half day trip with three different excursions. Nice guide and driver and a good mix with different sights. Snorkeling was great when you have children with you. Quiet and safe place and nice fish. If I had snorkelled with the kids, I would probably want to snorkel by a coral reef out by the sea where there are more different kinds of fish. The private tour at the caves and cenotes was very nice.

Operator response

Tack för din recension! Vi är glada att höra att ni hade en fin halvdagstur med tre olika utflykter och att ni uppskattade guiden och föraren. Det är bra att höra att ni tyckte om mixen av olika sevärdheter och att snorklingen passade bra för barn. Vi är glada att ni upplevde lugnet och säkerheten vid platsen och att ni såg fina fiskar. Vi förstår att du skulle ha velat snorkla vid ett korallrev ute vid havet om du haft snorklarutrustning för barnen. Vi är också glada att höra att den privata turen vid grottorna och cenotes var väldigt fin. Vi hoppas att vi får se er igen snart för ett nytt äventyr med Mexico Kan Tours!

Amazing experience all around.

Alondria and Jesus were fantastic tour guides. We really appreciate their excellent guest services and hospitality. We did the reef and private cenote tour. Both sites were absolutely amazing. The reef was one of the prettiest I’ve seen in a long time. Many living and colorful corals and tons of fish. The cenote was beyond any expectations we had. To just call it a cenote and compare to so many others wasn’t enough. It’s a cenote with an underground river. You enter a cave wonderland mixing ecology and Mayan mysticism. It just happens to be full of pristine water. Alondria gave excellent natural history and history of the people who called and still call the Yucatan home. On the way to drop us home, some locals were feeding birds on the beach. The magnificent frigate birds were mixed in with the gulls. The frigate is my favorite bird and they stopped so that I could see the birds up close and get some photos. Perfect end to a really great day. The restaurant was just ok but the staff were friendly and facilities clean. The booking team communicated through text and kept us updated before the tour began. Seriously some of the best service I’ve had in a long time.

Operator response

Thank you for your detailed and positive review! We're thrilled to hear that you had an amazing experience with Alondra and Jesus. It's great to know that the reef and private cenote tour exceeded your expectations and that you found the sites absolutely amazing. We appreciate your feedback on the natural history, the excellent service, and the special touch of stopping to see the magnificent frigate birds. We're glad that the booking team kept you well-informed.

Book it without hesitation!

I’ve never been to Mexico so I had some worry with picking tours and activities but this was an absolute TREAT. Do not hesitate to book it and specifically request Martín. He was AMAZING. So warm, welcoming, well-educated and respectful of the significance of the beautiful land we got to tour and see. We learned so much and felt so safe with him and Axel driving us around. It was a once in a lifetime experience that I would 100% book again without hesitation. Lunch was delicious at a local taco joint and they were very receptive to our groups dietary needs. He also gave us local recommendations for other activities. Great experience overall.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your glowing review! We're thrilled to hear that your first experience in Mexico was an absolute treat with our tour. Martín's warmth, welcoming nature, extensive knowledge, and respect for the land made your experience exceptional. Axel's safe driving also contributed to your comfort and enjoyment. The delicious lunch and personalized recommendations added to the overall great experience. We're happy to have your 100% recommendation and look forward to welcoming you back in the future!
