About this experience
Experience a guided cenotes hopping on this all-in-one tour that combines swimming in three pristine natural pools equipped with a zipline and a jumping platform. Top off the adventure with a guided tequila tasting and a traditional Mayan snack. Start your day with a convenient pickup from your hotel or the nearest point, heading out to the Yucatan wilderness. Prepare to explore our three spectacular cenotes, the fascinating natural sinkholes filled with crystal-clear water that are also sacred sites to the Mayan people. At each site, you'll have plenty of time to swim and explore the cenotes at your own pace. For an extra adrenaline rush, take a slide on the zipline or splash into the water from the jumping platform. Continue with a guided tequila tasting. Learn about the different types of tequila and how to properly taste them. At last, relish a delicious Mayan snack and witness a traditional Mayan dance ritual.

Everything ran like a well-oiled machine. Beautiful cenotes and a fun time
Overall, great production- it ran like a well oiled machine. The nature was so beautiful and the experience was fun; we didn’t feel like any of the service majorly detracted from the beauty of it all. Pros: All of it was on a private property, very safe, with bathrooms aplenty. Super cool nature, not too crowded. Each cenote had its own special features: one had a statue, a cafe with bats, and a low platform, one had a higher platform and more rocks near the water, and one had an even higher jumping platform and a zip line. We were told that we would only have 20 minutes at each cenote which made us feel anxious and rushed— but then we had longer than 20 minutes. It was nice to have more time, but on the other we felt anxious for no reason. Cons: The van ride is hot and you may not have a working seat belt (happened on the way back for me). If you get motion sick, take medicine ahead of time or pack it- there was a bumpy ride we weren’t expecting in an open wagon thing. We were expecting to have to tip and pay for photos, but some of the workers were annoyingly pushy about it during the fire performance. We wanted to be able to watch the performance without interruption. Other info: The tacos were meh but free so no complaints. Photos were $65 but then when we initially declined they offered them to us for $55, which we paid for. They were fine, for three of us it felt worth it bc we could split it between us. Pick up instructions felt unclear, but we were able to message the organizers and figure it out. Very cute dog near final (largest) cenote
Response from the operator: > Thank you for your detailed review! We're happy to hear you enjoyed the cenotes, the beautiful nature, and the overall organization of the tour. We also appreciate your feedback regarding transportation, pickup instructions, and the photo and gratuity experience. Your comments will be shared with our team as we continue improving.

The experience was NO BUENO
They will constatly try to upsale you and ask you to tip them multiple times in the experience. If you don't give them what they're expecting they will be very unfriendly and make you feel unwelcomed. The water experience was ok, pretty but they don't let you enjoy it because the time is very limited. The zip line was only like 20 ft long 😔
Response from the operator: Hi Damian, thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. We regret that you felt pressured during your visit and that the time at the cenotes and zipline did not meet your expectations. We’d like the opportunity to investigate your concerns. Please contact us through our official social media channels and share your reservation details so we can review your case and follow up accordingly.

Would do again! The value is worth it :)
Josh was a fun host. All of the personnel are very kind and alot of fun. The Cenotes are gorgeous. You can bring your things with you on the Cenote only tour, just you can't bring them INTO the Cenote. I would recommend water shoes (not flip flops) because the rocks and pebbles walking around are painful. Pros - Its gorgeous, the guides are amazing, the photographer is fantastic and the prices of the excursion and the photos are reasonable. There was an incident in the water in the last Cenote and multiple guards/guides jumped in to save the participant. It all felt very safe. Bathrooms are clean, park with the entertainers is fun. Cons - The food was not good, dry and you can't just leave when you are done. We were ready to go once we realized we didn't like the tacos provided but we had to wait another hour after our Cenote tour ended to get our 1 hr shuttle back to our hotel. I would have brought food/snacks with me for my small children if I had known we would not return to the hotel within a few hours. We were picked up at 8:30 arrived back to the hotel at 3:00pm for the Cenote only tour which was way longer that I planned (4 hours total). There is not a paddle board and you must wear lifejackets so the photos are a little deceiving, but absolutley necessary (We saw it save someone's life). The last Cenote is the best, but was crowded, with lines and we weren't there very long which was disappointing. The beginning section with the 'add ons' and extra gear can feel overwhelming and sales pushy. Overall, would highly recommend. My children are 7 and 10 and I went solo with them and we all had a great time. Value is worth it.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear you and your family enjoyed the experience and felt safe throughout the activities. We appreciate your detailed comments and will review them internally. We hope to see you again soon. What To Do In Cancun Customer service team

Great excursion on a hot day!!
Wonderful day. Cool clear water. Great guides. You don’t need anything but a towel, some cash (for great tequila to take home + tips), and a positive attitude. Excellent adventure.

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Small Group 3 Waterfall Cenotes Experience: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cancun.
How much does Small Group 3 Waterfall Cenotes Experience cost?
+
Prices start at $39 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cancun usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Small Group 3 Waterfall Cenotes Experience take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Cancun is not rushed.
Is Small Group 3 Waterfall Cenotes Experience worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 53 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cancun, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Small Group 3 Waterfall Cenotes Experience?
+
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 Small Group 3 Waterfall Cenotes Experience suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Small Group 3 Waterfall Cenotes Experience?
+
Around 19 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 Cancun 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 Cancun and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Small Group 3 Waterfall Cenotes Experience 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 Cancun 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 Cancun?
+
On Outty we rank every Cancun experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Early Access to Chichen Itza All Inclusive with Valladolid and Cenote Swim, Whale Shark Tour from Cancun, Playa del Carmen, Tulum and Riviera Maya, Small-Group 3 Hidden Cenotes Adventure with Tequila Tasting. 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 Cancun?
+
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 Cancun?
+
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.
