It was easily the best...
It was easily the best experience I’ve had in Mexico. Jose was absolutely incredible…, so much laughing and joking around. Never felt unsafe. Never felt rushed. Highly highly highly recommend. Don’t waste your time with other tour guides.

PERFECT IF YOU'RE THERE AT THE OPENING.
Hello, I advise you to go directly to the beach, no need to pay a provider, if you arrive from the direction of Playa del Carmen ask the bus driver: stink stop Akumal, climb the bridge steps , more careful to cross the road. Then take the 1st road on your left, go to the end of this road, without stopping at the service providers, after paying access, contact the &der provider, wooden cabin, on the beach. Ask Miguel, he's very nice, and if you're not good at swimming he'll pull you off with his buoy. Oh, great. ESPECIALLY IMPERATIVE YOU HAVE TO BE THERE AT THE OPENING AT 8 O'CLOCK, there is hardly anyone in the water, which is easier to see turtles that are free.

Must do!!
This was a very fun and relaxing adventure, and far away from the crowd. Tour guide Manuel was funny and easy-going. I'm normally a bit nervous in water, but this was plenty safe, and very much worth the cost! Manuel took good photos/video of my wife and I ... thank you my friend!!

Fun authentic cenotes experience!
Benjamin was a wonderful guide. He grew up as a small child enjoying these cenotes. Chemuyil is a perfect small village. It was lots of fun and a great finish jumping off the platform into the clear clean cenote!

Great day tour
Benjamin was great. Can’t recommend him enough. The trip and bike riding was glorious. Bikes are old school but do the job just fine. The water and colors were beautiful. Almost indescribable. Benjamin grew up in Chemuyil and swam in these cenotes from childhood. He knows all the secret spots. Great value compared to more expensive tours and authentic.

Why this scores 58
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Tour Swim with Turtles, 2 Cenotes & Gopro: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tulum.
How much does Private Tour Swim with Turtles, 2 Cenotes & Gopro cost?
+
Prices start at $151 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 Private Tour Swim with Turtles, 2 Cenotes & Gopro take?
+
Plan for about 6 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 Private Tour Swim with Turtles, 2 Cenotes & Gopro worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 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 Private Tour Swim with Turtles, 2 Cenotes & Gopro?
+
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 Private Tour Swim with Turtles, 2 Cenotes & Gopro suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Tour Swim with Turtles, 2 Cenotes & Gopro?
+
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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Tour Swim with Turtles, 2 Cenotes & Gopro 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.
