10 star day riding bikes and swimming in cenotes .
Wow! Brian and his team were amazing! They were informative, well versed in the history, flora and fauna of the area. Our group had people of a wide age range and activity level and everyone was comfortable and happy. Riding bikes in the tree canopy was magical. The cenotes were beautiful and no where was crowded. Getting to Chemuyil and back from Tulum centro was so easy. We did the collectivo but others took a taxi out and the collectivo back. If you are looking for an eco focused tour combined with the magic of the cenotes, check these guys out !

A perfect introduction to cenotes
This was one of our favorite days of the trip. It made my youngest (our reluctant traveler) decide that he might actually like Mexico. Brian guided us through 3 completely different types of cenotes: covered, partly covered and open. The covered cenote is gorgeous. The open one has jumping platforms that the kids (13 and 15) loved. Brian was a delight - informative, funny, accommodating. Bring: water shoes, swimsuit, refillable water bottle. If you bring your own snorkel mask or goggles, no need to bring snorkel or fins, as they are not allowed. I’m thrilled we took this tour.

Exceptional Experience! Do not miss!
My friend and I were advised to take this adventure when we traveled to Tulum. I had just relearned to ride a bike and am not the best swimmer. Brian and Gio were absolutely wonderful guides! They were very conscientious about my skill level, regularly checking on me to make sure I was ok riding and made sure to bring a life jacket for me (these were not required but it helped me to navigate slippery rocks and chilly water so I recommend wearing one just so you can relax and enjoy the moment around you). BRING WATER SOCKS/SHOES. You will be walking on lots of wet and dry rocks. I suggest a quick drying towel and a hat when you ride. As mentioned, the water is CHILLY but don't let that deter you from going all in. It's very relaxaing and the cenotes were really beautiful. Also, riding from place to place through the jungle was a blast!

Best Cenote tour!!!
We had the best experience!! Brian and Gio were awesome and we love our entire experience!! We had a group with kids and teenagers and everyone loved it!’ Thank you for a great day!

Great freaking time!!
Just an absolutely stunning experience. To be welcomed by Brian and then have a guided tour with Gio. They are both so knowledgeable about cenotes and the surrounding area. We had a blast riding bikes through the jungle and back roads to get to 3 vastly differing experiences. Each cenote was special in its own way and provided a great way to get a taste of what they have to offer. We had amazing pictures taken for us by Gio that are far better than any I would of been able to do myself and only a little extra $ on top. Then finishing with a traditional Myan snack was the cherry on top. 100% recommend!!

Why this scores 67

Underground Cenotes Snorkeling Tour with Mayan Snack: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Playa del Carmen.
How much does Underground Cenotes Snorkeling Tour with Mayan Snack cost?
+
Prices start at $35 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Playa del Carmen usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Underground Cenotes Snorkeling Tour with Mayan Snack take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Playa del Carmen is not rushed.
Is Underground Cenotes Snorkeling Tour with Mayan Snack worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Playa del Carmen, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Underground Cenotes Snorkeling Tour with Mayan Snack?
+
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 Underground Cenotes Snorkeling Tour with Mayan Snack suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Underground Cenotes Snorkeling Tour with Mayan Snack?
+
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 Playa del Carmen 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 Playa del Carmen and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Underground Cenotes Snorkeling Tour with Mayan Snack 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 Playa del Carmen 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 Playa del Carmen?
+
On Outty we rank every Playa del Carmen experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Ride to a life changing cenotes tour, Chichén Itzá, Cenote and Valladolid with Lunch and transportation, From Playa del Carmen ATV Adventure with Ziplines, Cenote. 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 Playa del Carmen?
+
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 Playa del Carmen?
+
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.
