About this experience
If you visit the Riviera Maya or Cancún, this is a tour you simply can’t miss. Discover the four different types of cenotes, each one protected—according to Mayan legend—by aluxes, the playful guardian spirits of the jungle. Step into a place filled with mysticism, secrets, and natural beauty.
Throughout the day, you’ll enjoy exciting activities in four freshwater sinkholes, hidden deep in the lush Mayan jungle. Each cenote offers a unique experience — from zip-lining and rappelling to kayaking and swimming in crystal-clear waters.
These cenotes are located along the Ruta de los Cenotes and can only be accessed through this exclusive tour, making the experience truly special. Between adventures, delight in a delicious picnic-style lunch, and at the end of the water activities, relax with a glass of red wine or a comforting cup of coffee.
Embark on this extraordinary journey into nature and legend, and discover a magical experience you’ll remember for a lifetime.
