5Early cenote trip with Carlos
Carlos was a very friendly and experienced guide that picked us up from the hotel early in the morning. This way we were the first ones to arrive at the cenotes. This allowed us to be alone in every cenote for at least 10 min which was very much appreciated. Along the road Carlos took it upon himself to explain about the villages, culture and nature that we passed by. Carlos also answered all of our questions in detail.
5The most magical experience of my life
Having our own private tour was fantastic, our driver was so knowledgeable (we requested English speaking) ad I learnt so much about the area , and of course the cenotes . When your 16 yr old gets the camera out you know you are somewhere special .
4Very worthwhile if you enjoy swimming and rustic settings
The three Cuzama Cenotes (at Santa Barbara) were wonderful. I especially appreciated that our guide Freddy decided to pick us up early so we beat the crowds and had the first cenote to ourselves. It was very tranquil and magical. Freddy was very experienced, answered our many questions about the area, had excellent English skills, and kept an eye on our belongings while we swam. The meal at the restaurant by the cenotes (where there are also changing rooms) was hearty and tasty. Overall, a great day trip that I highly recommend!
5Visiting the maya Rivera has been by far the most amazing experience. I will definitely return in the near future.
Friendly knowledgeable guide. Beautiful experience nothing like it. One of Mexico's most amazing places to visit. We're are in awe.
5Best part of the trip!
This was my favorite part of the trip!! I loved how easy it was to be picked up directly from our hotel and guided through the locations. Definitely the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen in my life and would love to go back and experience it again one day. 100% recommend!
5Santa Barbara
Cenotes mainl accessible via tours, fun tour with a range of Cenotes. Bring goggles or snorkel if not confirmed. Cenotes are beautiful but not allowed to remove lifejacket which is annoying. Great photo opportunities if you bring something to keep your phone in. Also you might get lucky with fish that nibble on your feet to clean them.

About Mérida
Mérida, capital of Yucatán, is a Spanish colonial city of grand boulevards and mansions, a base for Maya ruins, cenotes and flamingo lagoons.
Francisco de Montejo the Younger founded Mérida in 1542 on the site of a Maya town, and stone from its temples went into the cathedral and houses. The Plaza Grande is the heart of the city, with the cathedral of San Ildefonso, the Governor's Palace, whose walls are covered by murals of Maya history, and the Casa de Montejo, with an ornate carved façade. The low colonial houses of the centre gave the city its nickname, the White City.
Top-ranked sights in Mérida: Chacchoben, Merida Cathedral (Catedral de San Ildefonso), Main Square (Plaza Grande).
