Horseback Ride in the Jungle with Cenote swim. Loved it.
We loved the horsebacking riding and cenote swim! It was awesome. We got picked up right from our house and were driven to the site. The horses were great and our tour guide CJ was friendly, fun and informative. The swim in the cenote was refreshing and just the right amount of spooky. We loved it. Would highly recommend.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you loved the horseback riding and the refreshing (and a little spooky!) cenote swim. CJ will be so happy to know he made your experience fun and memorable. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon!

Cenote and Horseback tour
We had so much fun! We were the only group doing the cenote and horseback riding so our guide, Javier, really let us customize how we spent our time. He was very knowledgeable and answered every question we had about the area and then some! It is a pretty long excursion including transportation so make sure you have a good breakfast before you go! The bugs are pretty intense so bring bug spray with you!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re really happy to hear that you had such a great time and that Javier made the tour so special by adapting it to your group’s pace and interests. His knowledge of the area is something we’re very proud of, and we’re glad he could answer all your questions along the way. We also appreciate the helpful tips for future travelers — a good breakfast and bug spray definitely make the day more comfortable. Thank you again for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon!

Mixed experience
The cenote experience was excellent. Loved adventuring into the underground cave! The horse riding was disappointing though. The activity description implied we would ride out to the cenote. In reality, we went to the cenote and then rode up and down a road.
Response from the operator: Yes!! As you saw it, the road to the Cenote is not suitable for riding a Hirse through it, we care about your safe and Horse's. We hope to see you soon in your next Adventour!!

Cenotes by horseback!
We had such a great time on this excursion! It started a little late from our pick up time from the hotel but once we arrived we had a great time. Our tour guide Fernando was awesome and the tour was informative. The horseback ride was fun and the horses were ready to trot and even canter if you wanted. My only qualm was the saddle wasn’t great and rubbed my inner legs raw. Be sure to bring a bottle of bug sprays unless you enjoy mosquito bites. The jungle was beautiful and we saw lot of butterflies and birds. Once we arrived at the cenotes the tour was awesome. Was really cool to tour them and was so refreshing. After we rode back to camp and ate a hardy authentic Mexican lunch. Bring money for beers. Also you must be patient for the bus back. Over we had an awesome day!!
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for these words!! I will ensure Fernando and all our crew will know they are doing an excellent job.We hope to see you soon in another adventour!!

Cenote tour is a MUST!!
The Cenote adventure with our guide Eddie was the most amazing experience. He was incredibly knowledgeable and great with my 2 kids. Being in the Cenote and swimming through the stalactites was unforgettable. The horseback riding was a little disappointing as it was just along the same road the ATVs use. Was hoping for more of a small path through jungle. The company was flexible when a horse was a bit wild and would not let my father ride so he got an ATV (just not the experience we had expected). Overall! Amazing day and the lunch that was cooked for us in the jungle was amazing - nice to get a break from resort food!
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for these words!! I will ensure Eddie and all our crew will know they are doing an excellent job.We hope to see you soon in another adventour!!

Why this scores 51
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Half Day Horseback Riding Adventure with Cenotes in the Jungle: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tulum.
How much does Half Day Horseback Riding Adventure with Cenotes in the Jungle cost?
+
Prices start at $127 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tulum usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Half Day Horseback Riding Adventure with Cenotes in the Jungle take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tulum is not rushed.
Is Half Day Horseback Riding Adventure with Cenotes in the Jungle worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tulum, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Half Day Horseback Riding Adventure with Cenotes in the Jungle?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Half Day Horseback Riding Adventure with Cenotes in the Jungle suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Half Day Horseback Riding Adventure with Cenotes in the Jungle?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tulum can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tulum and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Half Day Horseback Riding Adventure with Cenotes in the Jungle start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tulum within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Tulum?
+
On Outty we rank every Tulum experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Tulum Ruins, Turtles in Akumal and Cenote tour, Tulum Guided Tour, Magical Cenote, Lagoon Snorkeling and Beachside Lunch, Chichén Itzá, Cenote and Valladolid with Lunch and transportation. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Tulum?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Tulum?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
