About this experience
Enjoy an incredible cenote tour where you will purify your body and soul in 3 different cenotes. The Zapote cenote is part of the route of the cenotes of the Riviera Maya and is located just a few minutes from the Kin Há cenote. It is an open well of magnificent crystal clear water naturally decorated in the middle of the jungle where you can practice snorkeling, as well as diving since it has the highest platforms in the area, one of 14 meters and another of 16 meters, or simply swim and cool off in its waters. Then they move to the cenote grandfather cheche, a cave type and finally go to cenote las palmas to cool off. You will also have 4 lines of zip lines and a small bicycle tour to move to another cenote (10-15 min) and without forgetting that you will also be able to taste some typical dishes of the area with fresh waters to delight your palate.
