5Half day with the turtles
We had a great time with Alex- the tour was really informative and respectful of the environment and animals. We really enjoyed the half day tour, it had a good pace, got to see loads and was brilliant value for money. Worked well with the group size- thanks.
5Brilliant excursion!!
This was up there with the best day out ever! The snorkeling with turtles was brilliant even though im not great out in the water I felt totally safe and at ease. I could hold a life ring and pretty much get towed all over so its also great for the not so good swimmers! We saw about 10 turtles which ranged in size and the experience was second to none, highly recommend!! Maria Car was our guide throughout the tour and honestly she was so knowledgeable about everything we encountered it was fascinating, i could have listened to her all day long! The cenote swims were stunning and shows nature at its absolute finest, really beautiful but wear swim shoes as the rocks are sharp in places. Be sure to use mozzie spray before you leave hotel though as around the cenote entrances the mozzies are rife! The whole trip was worth every penny and im so glad we did it! Thanks again Maria and her team xx
5Sea Turtles and Cenotes - Not to be Missed!
Wonderful experience! Driver picked us up at our hotel on time; professional, courteous, and friendly. IMHO, it's the guide that makes the tour successful or not. Our guide, Alex, was great. Not only extremely knowledgeable, but passionate about his culture and it's ecosystem. (AND ... be generous with your tips - all of your guides rely upon gratuities to make a living; plus it's seasonal work. We wouldn't have these great opportunities if it wasn't for them.)
5A must do on your next Cancún trip!
This was an incredible experience swimming with sea turtles and learning about cenotes. The tour guides were very informative.
5Amazing 5 🌟 trip
Nadia was an amazing guide and spoke very good English 🏴 . Very polite and extremely knowledgeable. Picked up exactly at 8 O’clock from Santi who has helpful and cheerful. Myself and my son did the turtles and the cenonties and was a great and enjoyable day out . Massively recommend santi and Nadia for ANY tours your doing while In Cancun .
5Alex the guide is the best at customer care
I had the best experience and felt very comfortable because of Alex the guide. I was anxious but only for 5 minutes and then I was in pure joy seeing turtles and fishes. It’s a walk in from the beach and a must do.

About Cancun
Cancun pairs a long ribbon of white-sand beaches and turquoise Caribbean water with Maya ruins, cenotes and islands all within easy reach.
The Hotel Zone curves along a narrow strip of land between the Caribbean and the Nichupté Lagoon, lined with resorts and beaches such as Playa Delfines, where the sand is powder-soft and the sea glows in every shade of blue. Downtown Cancun, on the mainland, is where locals eat and shop, with taquerías and evening stalls around Parque de las Palapas.
Top-ranked sights in Cancun: Chichen Itza, Tulum Archeological Site, Isla Mujeres.
