We had a tequila tasting and swam in the dos ojos cenote. Everything was amazing and beautiful. Our tour guide Arturo was very knowledgeable of the cenote and bat cave we got to explore, and the tequila/mezecal tasting. He gave us the freedom to take our time through the cenote and experience it, without being rushed. Also the Mexican lunch was delicious!! I would do it again and again, I had a wonderful time!

My sister, myself and a life long friend(60+years) went on the Tequilas and Cenote tour. What a wonderful tour. The private tour and focus on our level of ability and choices is so smart. Had so much fun learning about tequila and tasting the many varieties. Cenote was awesome and lunch was delicious. Chris was a perfect tour guide. I recommend signing up for one of the tours with Absolute Adventures.

This company is a gem! Swimming in a cenote & lunch in the jungle.
Our tour guide Chris was so friendly and knowledgeable. We were picked up from our hotel promptly at 9 am. We had the cenote to ourselves. The lunch at Juanita’s was the best authentic food we had the entire trip.
The tequila tasting was amazing, at least 20 bottles of tequila and mezcal to choose from. Interesting explanations and the place was very nice.
We were back at our hotel by 2:30. We would definitely book again with this company.
