Review of Tulum’s private Tankah cenote tour with zip-lines, canoes, cliff jumps, Mayan lunch, transport, and practical booking tips.

“An amazing experience. Our guide Hugo was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. The cenotes were beautiful and warm to swim in. The zip lines were fun and very safe. And to top it all off the home cooked meal at the end was soooo good. I would 10/10 recommend this tour. Plus paying extra for the private tour was well worth it.”

3.Snorkeling with Caribbean fish and private cenote exploration

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 212 reviews · 6 hours (approx.) · from $169Best value

Review of Tulum’s snorkeling and private cenote tour, with Caribbean fish, cave swimming, lunch, transport, costs, tips, and honest drawbacks.

“Carlos was the most personable and friendly guide and made our day very special. He made sure that our equipment was well fitted for snorkeling and pointed out all of the interesting wildlife and plant life native to the area. We thoroughly enjoyed our private excursion into the underground river and Carlos' jokes made it feel that much more relaxed and enjoyable. Eating lunch in a remote private grass hut and having a chance to visit personally with our guide was the perfect ending.”

Review of a private Chichen Itza and cenote tour from Tulum, with early access, lunch, transport, guide tips, costs, and practical advice.

We felt the cost of the private tour was worth it for the…”
