Private Tour Turtle Experience and Cenote Swim

We had a great time with our guide Cristina. Pickup was right on time and the tour met all expectations. The turtle snorkeling was very doable if you were a confident swimmer (with mandatory life jacket). We chose the Taak bi Ha cenote swim and it was like nothing anyone in family had done before. I recommend to use the snorkel mask in the cenote to see the underwater channels.

If I could recommend this Tour more than 5 stars I would. I highly recommend this service, it’s private personal to your group. (My case me and my husband). We have been on tours with other companies which other passengers have ruined the experience, there is no chance of that here. Our guide and Driver who picked us up at 7:45am on Sunday July 6th from Secrets/Impressions Moxche, were spectacular from the start. They even checked with us first if we still wanted to go swim with the Turtles because the sargassum was very thick at the opening (and we would have to walk through it), I know that’s nature and we do not control it, sargassum didn’t stop me from seeing the turtles though. Our Guide who had to take over there was a young 20 something guy very educational and nice. We saw 4 turtles. 1 massive one, 1 baby and 2 normal sized turtles. ???? Then we went to a lagoon, Yalku in Akumal. Our guide was able to join us there. It was absolutely beautiful there breathtakingly beautiful. It was one of the most beautiful magical experiences I’ve been on since the great barrier reefs Australia , and Maui Hawaii as a kid. After that we went to a wonderful local restaurant in Akumal, and had Taco’s & nacho chips. Then our trip came to an end and we got back to our resort at 12:30pm. I wish I wrote our guides name down, he was truly amazing and wouldn’t have wanted any other guide! ???? Will definitely be coming back and bringing family and friends. I highly recommend Absolute Adventures Mexico!! When in playa del Carmen will be only using them from now on!

Such a fun day! Juan, our guide was amazing. He had meaningful knowledge about the ruins, the region, and Mayan history and culture that made having a tour good a huge plus. The ruins are interesting but the info shared by Juan made the experience more relevant and meaningful. After the ruins, we went to the cenote where Juan was able to show us lesser known parts of the cenote and answered every question we had about these unusual swimming holes. The cenote was more crowded than usual but it didn't stop us from thoroughly enjoying the crisp spring waters, water lilies, and caves. Finally, Juan joined our family for lunch where we continued our lively conversation. The restaurant was adorable though they pricing at the gift shop was questionable . Definitely take note and negotiate. It was a joy to share part of our family trip with him and we're appreciative of the unique experience and extensive info he shared with us. Despite being a Bengals fan, Juan absolutely made what was already a cool half day excursion that much better. ????
