Tulum ruins & Snorkeling in Cenote Private Tour
When it comes to the Riviera Maya, there are two things every visitor simply must do: visit one of the area’s impressive Mayan archaeological sites and take advantage of its breathtaking natural beauty.
With our Tulum Cenote Tour, you’ll be able to check both things off of your list in a single day, and you’ll enjoy them even more because our private tours allow you to avoid the crowds in order to have a much more personal experience.
Our private guided Tulum Cenote tour starts with a visit to the Mayan ruins of Tulum, one of the most important Mayan archaeological sites in existence. It was primarily used as a trading hub, where everything from precious stones to chocolate and textiles were traded.
Due to its prime coastal location, it also offers some of the world’s finest views of the Caribbean Sea. As you explore the ruins, your guide will point out highlights like the main temple and the impressive Temple of the Frescoes, where you can see ancient Mayan artwork.
Our next stop is one of the Yucatán Peninsula’s famous cenotes, underground caves that formed from rainwater eroding limestone for centuries. One of the best ways to enjoy the natural beauty of the Riviera Maya is to go snorkeling in cenote in their crystal clear waters.
It’s a fun, relaxing activity that is perfect for everybody since there are no waves/current to contend with. We also provide all the equipment you need, with a professional guide to show you around! Best of all, the cool, refreshing water is one of the best and most beautiful ways to escape the constant heat for a while.
After you’ve fully explored the cenote, we’ll end the tour by stopping at a local restaurant in the jungle where you can enjoy a delicious traditional meal.

Tulum Ruins and Los Dos Ojos cenote
Absolute Adventures was the only tour group that I could find that did an excursion from Tulum to both Los Dos Ojos cenote and the Tulum Ruins in a single day. This was a great private tour and Juan was a great and very personable guide. He was very informative about Tulum ruins in particular and Yucatan pre-colonial history in general. The ruins themselves are not large, but are beautifully situated along the coastal cliffs. Going with a guide in Los Dos Ojos allowed us to go in areas closed off to the general public. Life jackets are required. There are showers and changing rooms. Bring water shoes to get down the stairs to the pools. I highly recommend this tour.
Amanda –
Insightful Tulum Tour and Epic Turtle Snorkeling!
Highly recommend this adventure! Arturo was a very knowledgeable and friendly guide through the Tulum ruins. Having a guide explain the ruins makes it so much more valuable of a visit! And then snorkeling with the turtles was EPIC! Saw at least 10 or 15 giant turtles and snorkeled along a part of the coral reef. TONS of fish to see and good visibility. Was a great adventure day for our family of four! Loved the timely pick-up and private van with no stops or waiting.
Claudia –
Wonderful, personalized trip for the whole family
Our family of 11 (5 kids) took the Tulum and Cenote tour with Juan. It was the highlight of our week long stay in the PDC area! Juan did an amazing job of keeping the tour interesting and engaging for the kids, encouraging them to spot and keep count of the iguanas at Tulum, and recommended that we switch our initial cenote pick to one that was more kid friendly. The trip was a huge hit with the whole family from grandparents down to 8 year olds. The transportation as comfortable and seamless and it nice to be able to go at our own pace. Highly recommend the company and Juan especially. We will not hesitate to use them again.
Carolyn –
Juan was an amazing guide! We had the best time ecology in the cenotes. Thank you for everything!
Nicholas –
I had a wonderful excursion to Tulum and a nearby cenote with my lovely girlfriend. Our tour guide Juan was fantastic and provided us with insight into the history, local culture, and traditions. He made sure to take us to the sites when they weren’t crowded so we could get the most out of our experience and capture some beautiful pictures of our time. Everything was exceeded our expectations. Thank you!!
Johana –
Cristina and Juan were the best tour guides. Fun and very informative, they were helpful throughout the whole trip ans constantly making sure that we doing okay and that we were having fun. Absolute adventure private tours are a great company and I definitely recommend them, especially if you have a big group of people traveling with you. The cenotes were beautiful and a great experience. The food was delicious, I recommend the mixed plate, the queso empanadas were great.
Jayniel –
Juan and Cristina!!! They are the best of the best. The food, the cenotes and the whole team made this a memorable experience. We will definitely be coming back!
Hoa –
Just had an amazing experience with Absolute Adventure Mexico! We did the Tulum ruins tour and swimming in two stunning cenotes — Taak Bi Ha and Nicte Ha — and it was absolutely unforgettable.
The Tulum ruins were breathtaking, set right on the coast, and our guide shared so much fascinating insight into Mayan history and culture. Then we headed to the cenotes, which were magical — crystal-clear waters, incredible rock formations, and such a peaceful vibe.
Everything was super well organized, the guide was knowledgeable and friendly, and the small-group setting made it feel really personal. Highly recommend this tour if you’re in the area and want a mix of history, nature, and adventure!
Nyleene –
Worth the price !

tulum ruins and 2 cenotes
My family (2 kids- ages 14, 17) had an amazing tour with Juan. He picked us up at our hotel on time and we were the first ones into the ruins at Tulum. He told us all about the ruins and the Mayan culture. It was wonderful to do that early in the morning before it was too hot. He then took us to a cenote that we had all to ourselves. We were able to snorkel at our own pace and enjoy the cenote. We then went to the underground cenote which was equally amazing. I’m so glad that we chose 2 cenotes and got the experience of both the above ground and undergound one. Juan took great pictures of our family and I would highly recommend this tour.
Darrell –
Cristina and Antonio were lovely hosts for our day at Tulum and exploring a cenote of our choice!
Shellee –
Cris & Tonio were great! Cris was knowledgeable and enthusiastic.
Kimber –
Juan was our guide for the Tulum Ruins and Cenote adventure. Hands down best guide we have ever had. Very hesitant about Cenote as I’m not a swimmer but Juan picked an amazing Cenote and we had a great time. Thank you Juan for the laughter, education and memories. Kimber & Adrienne
Dustin –
Azturo was great! We did the ruins and cenote tour. It was great having a guide who knew the ruins and cenotes so well. We could have gone on our own but would not have had the experience that Azturo brought to the table. So much value! We will definitely use Absolute Adventure’s on our next excursion.
Mara –
I organized a trip for 35 of my coworkers and Absolute Adventure made it so easy! They were very communicative and clear throughout the process. The link they set up for everyone to pay themselves was a huge relief. The tour itself was also great! Our guides were incredibly friendly and organized. All my coworkers had a blast. Would recommend to anyone looking for a guided tour for any sized group!
Trevor –
The trip was great! Guides were very nice and super fun to be around. The cenote was also
incredible – the water was very clear and it was pretty private.
Rich –
Mayan ruins and cenote swim. Had a great experience!
Great experience with our tour guide. Mayan Ruins and cenote swim. Great experience and
highly recommend for friends and family. Jump off the ledge!
Lara –
Fantastic trip – Arturo and Kristina were great guides which knew a lot and showed us the
best spots. Even as a big group it’s been great!
Parker –
Arturo and his team were extremely helpful, kind, and fun! They took us to the ruins and a wonderful cenote with a zip line! Can’t recommend them enough!
Jeff –
Great experience with my family. Josh is an excellent guide. Highly recommended.
Landon –
Our tour was amazing. Safe private transportation. Excellent communication with the company prior to arrival. Our guide Joshua was knowledgeable and friendly. Ruins, jaguar Cenote and Juanita’s restaurant are all must dos
J Veiss –
Alex was very knowledgeable and patient. He moved at our pace. He saved us from the monkey people.😅 It was just a great experience thanks to Alex and Rodrigo.
Absolute Adventure Mexico is a MUST GO!!! 5 STARS ALL DAY!!!😊😊😊
Emily –
Alex and Rodrigo were great !!
Laura –
Arturo was our guide and he did fantastic! We choose to do a private guide because our adult son has autism. He did a nice job catering to his needs and making sure he was comfortable at all times. We saw the Tulum ruins and got there nice and early before it got busy. Then we went to a cenote – we did an open air one with a small cliff to jump into. After that they took us out for lunch. The whole time our driver stayed with our car, so all of our belongings stayed there and were safe. I would definitely pack enough towels for everyone, I didn’t and it was kind of cold and wet without a towel.
Stephanie –
Juan is an intuitive, fun, knowledgeable tour guide. We had the best day with him! Muchas gracias y mucho gusto, Juan! We will be back!
Rachelle –
Best decision we made as a larger group with children to hire a private tour to Tulum. Our guide was wonderful and very informative. The Cenote was very cool and we were given the option between 3 of which to visit. Wished we had time to visit more than one, but just one was perfect for our mixed age group. Lunch was delicious. Would absolutely book with this company again. Booking was very easy and they were incredibly responsive.
Stephanie –
We had an absolute adventure with our tour guide, Juan, and driver, Enrique. The week before our trip, my mother sustained an injury and is currently walking with a cane. Absolute Adventure Mexico accommodated us in every way to ensure that my mother did minimal walking while being able to explore the sites fully. We did the Tulum, Cenote, and authentic Mexican lunch experience. Wow! Juan was so knowledgeable about the site and local nature. We learned so much and moved at a pace that was comfortable for us. Thank you for a sharing the beauty of your country with us and being so hospitable, Juan. We will remember our experience always.
Victoria –
We did a full day private excursion out to the Mayan ruins and cenotes near Tulum. JJ was a fantastic tour guide — very knowledgeable and friendly! Swimming in the cenotes was an incredible experience — JJ took us to a less popular spot and we had the entire cave to ourselves! Highly recommend.

Tulum Ruins and Snorkeling in Cenote with Absolute Adventure Mexico – GREAT EXPERIENCE!
The Tulum Ruins and Snorkeling in Cenote tour with Absolute Adventure Mexico was the first of two that my wife and I booked for our week in Playa del Carmen (the second was the Chichen Itza Express, which is also highly recommended). This was our first trip to Mexico, and because we were staying at an all-inclusive resort, the two excursions were our opportunity to embrace Mayan culture and see more of the region.
Our tour guide Alex and driver Omar arrived promptly at 7 a.m. stocked with plenty of cold water and the snorkeling equipment we would use for our cenote visit. While this may seem an early start, the benefits of arriving at these sites early cannot be underestimated. Crowds build up through the day, so visiting with fewer other tourists is worthwhile. I will also note that it was just the four of us for the excursion, so it really was a private tour, affording an intimacy with our guide Alex that one can only get in a small group.
We began by driving to the Tulum ruins. Alex proved extremely knowledgeable and congenial. While en route, he expounded upon the Mayan civilization and what we would see at the Tulum ruins. He even taught us how the Mayan numbering system worked and how to write different numbers. Who knew that Mayans used a base 20 numbering system? We also learned that Tulum had been razed by Spanish conquistadors and was essentially forgotten for centuries, only rediscovered in 1841. Mangrove forests continue to be pushed back as more of the ancient city is rediscovered. Alex taught us how important the seasonal calendar was to the Mayans and how they used window placement to inform the day relative to the equinoxes or summer solstice (think crop management). The fact that Tulum is situated at the top of a cliff makes it a picturesque place; wandering the site listening to Alex’s patient narration was a treat.
Leaving Tulum, Alex gave us the choice of three cenotes: Nicte Ha, Taak bi Ha, or Jaguar. Alex explained what each was like, and we selected Taak bi Ha because we liked the idea of snorkeling in a cavern cenote. We arrived at Taak bi Ha on schedule (around 11 a.m.) and prepared for snorkeling. Here, I will note that the equipment provided by Absolute Adventure Mexico was excellent, better than what I own at home. Alex also volunteered that the snorkeling equipment is sanitized after every use, which was appreciated. We snorkeled in the cave for over an hour. Alex snorkeled, too, which was helpful since he could point out a few things before allowing us alone time. It was really a remarkable experience exploring the cavern, though seeing the guidelines that scuba divers use to enter the dark depths impressed upon me that I have zero interest in ever doing that. One other point to make is that our driver Omar remained with the van throughout our time in the cenote, so we never had any concerns about the security of our phones, wallets, etc.
At no point did Alex rush us through our adventure. When we were done snorkeling, we returned to the van and drove a short distance to the local restaurant where we enjoyed the lunch that was part of the excursion. Very good, traditional food in ample quantities! And having the opportunity to ask Alex more questions and learn about his life was a privilege.
In summary, the Tulum Ruins and Snorkeling in Cenote tour with Absolute Adventure Mexico is strongly recommended. Alex and Omar were fantastic, and we learned at the end of our excursion that Alex would be taking us on the Chichen Itza Express in two days. Suffice it to say, we were ecstatic to see him again. Guides make the experience, and hiring the best guide talent appears to be a priority for the company. Great job!
Kaitlin –
We had two incredible tours with Absolute Adventure Mexico during our family trip to Tulum. We went on an informative tour of the ruins followed by snorkelling in a cave cenote – the highlight of our trip! We also enjoyed an outdoor cenote and snorkelling with turtles in Akumal Bay. Arturo took such good care of us, sharing local tips, and made our tours relaxing and fun. I would recommend his team to everyone and look forward to reconnecting when we return. Thanks Arturo!
Hikari –
It’s was a perfect service!
The guide Joshua was very professional!!
His explanation of the Mayan history and guides in the cenote was fabulous.
I would definitely recommend this tour company!!
thalloranelon –
Arturo was an amazing tour guide along with our drivers Omar and Rigo, and the tours we went on (Tulum ruins, underground Cenote first day, followed by snorkeling and then swimming with sea turtles the second day) were all amazing and included delicious lunch at local spots. Highly recommend this wonderful tour company and staff.

Excellent Choice
Today we did the Tulum Ruins and Taak Bi Ha Cenote with Absolute Adventure. Our guide Juan and driver (sorry forgot your name) were so wonderful and seriously beyond 5 stars. We felt so safe the entire time. Booking a private tour was the best decision. After taking the transfer from the airport who wants to spend your vacation with 50 random people on a bus. Juan’s knowledge of the ruins was a real treat and his sense of humour kept us laughing. When we return with our husbands in the future we’ll definitely be booking another excursion with Absolute Adventure (and requesting Juan and hopefully he doesn’t remember our faces ;^) lol
llessac15 –
Awesome experience!
We had a great time during our Tulum ruins tour and cenote swim. I would highly recommend it to anyone and we would do it again if we went back. Alex was an outstanding tour guide!
Eugene –
What a tour!! Arturo and Omor were awesome. Arturo was very knowledgeable and just a great person to tour around with. Highly recommend taking this tour…you won’t regret it!
Emily –
We had a great time with Joshua and Rodrigo! We loved the various tour options, went for a private tour of Tulum with Joshua and a stop at cenote of our choice from their list. They picked us up right on time, and we were back in time for a late-ish lunch as planned!
The van was in pristine condition inside and out, (Rodrigo was actually detailing it even more while we swam and zip lined!) with cold drinks and great air conditioning.
Jennifer –
What an absolutely amazing experience we had with this company! We just got back from a day exploring Tulum and some cenotes with our private tour guide, Alex, and our driver Omar. They are extremely knowledgeable, kind, and welcoming individuals. The entire experience from booking this tour a month ago, to the pick-up at the ferry terminal, and the actual tour could not have been more perfect! Thank you guys so much for making our trip so memorable <3
Tarama –
Great way to experience Tulum and a cenote 🙂
We had such a good day on our private tour with Juan. Juan was extremely knowledgeable and great with our 3 and 5-year-old children. Juan and our driver picked us up from our hotel in PDC and took us to the Tulum ruins early before the crowds started and before it got too hot. He provided a lot of history and the views were incredible. Next, he took us to a cave cenote- Taak Bi Ha. We had the place to ourselves! We enjoyed snorkelling in the cenote while the kids explored the cave. Lastly, we had a mexican lunch before heading back to our hotel. There were not a lot of options at the restaurant we went to as alot was apparently not available eg chicken. The restaurant seemed annoyed we did not purchase a drink as we were happy to hydrate with our water. Lunch was nice though, and I would highly recommend the tour and Juan!
Crystal –
Great private tour for our family!
We had an amazing experience touring the Tulum Mayan ruins, swimming in a cenote, and having lunch. Juan was a very personable tour guide, and Omar was a great driver. It was well worth it to do the private tour, get to the ruins early with nearly no one there, and get pictures without crowds in the background. Snorkeling in the cenote was a neat experience as well. Juan really helped make the whole experience fun with his stories and insights–by the end of the half day together, he seemed more like an old friend of our family than a guide.
Sarah –
Highly recommend Absolute Adventures
This was a perfect tour for our family of 10. It was both informational and recreational. Juan
(J.J.) was a great guide and captured memorable family photos. Claire is terrific to help
organize and deal with last minute changes. I highly recommend Absolute Adventures!
Laetitia –
We went to Tulum ruins, and 2 cenotes. We were 3 adults, 2 teenagers and one child. Arturo and Paolo did everything to give us the best day! From the first contact to the real day we had a great experience , Claire was answering all questions very quickly! Arturo were accommodated and so patient to answer all our girl’s questions! He made sure there was something fun for each of us! All is well organized and relax, the lunch was very good in a paradisiac place. We loved everything and hope to book again for our next trip
Thanks Claire, Arturo and Paulo!!
Fiona –
Fantastic day with Alex (Guide) and Omar (driver) – they were so helpful and gave us loads of info. We visited Tulum and the Jaguar Cenote. Unfortunately the weather was atrocious
(can’t be helped) but Alex went above and beyond to make our day perfect

Terrific experience for our family of 11
We were a family of 6 adults and 5 children (ages 7-14) on a private tour with just our group. The tour van arrived 10 minutes early, which was great as it gave everyone time to get loaded so we were able to take off at 7:30 am. We first visited the Tulum ruins, which was a great time to be there as it wasn’t very crowded and it didn’t get too hot. There was quite a bit of walking to get into the ruins and back out again. Artudo, our guide was fantastic. The pace was very nice and he was informative in a manner that was easy for us all to understand. From there we visited 2 cenote’s, the first was the Jaguar cenote that had a zip line across the cenote which you could ride 2 times. There were also 2 platforms you could jump off of into the cenote. One was close to 15 feet high and the other maybe 10 feet. The water was clear and beautiful. Artudo then took us on a swim through a carved out rock area to the other end of the cenote. He was always very encouraging and made sure we had plenty of time to enjoy the experience before proceeding to the next cenote. The second cenote was Nicte-Ha, which had a large cave area as well as beautiful underwater plants. Finally we ate at a very peaceful restaurant, which is part of a lodge that was peaceful and delicious. Our family had a fabulous time are Artudo was the BEST!!!!
BKLIERZ –
Arturo is out of this world. His English is perfect, his knowledge is amazing, and he was so kind to our group. Highly recommended this tour especially with Arturo!
Alicia –
Seriously best tour and tour guide in the area! Joshua was fantastic! We did Tulum and two different Cenotes. Amazing places and Joshua was very knowledgeable about the history and locations. We had 8 adults, 3kids, and a baby, So lots to manage. 🤪 He was beyond patient and accommodating. The lunch stop was phenomenal as well. Honestly beautiful location and delicious tacos! Best food I had on the entire vacation!!

Perfect day trip, ask for Joshua
Our day was perfect as we went to the ruins of Tulum and two very different types of cenotes, all navigated and highlighted by our wonderful guide, Joshua. One of the cenotes was a beautiful open pool with mangroves, a jumping platform and a super fun zipline. The other was an underground cenote with stalactites and snorkeling I’m crystal clear water. The grounds of the ruins were absolutely stunning. I noticed Joshua, our guide, was significantly more engaged than the other guides. Our group, which included four children, felt particularly cared for as we got historical notes and pro tips for the experiences at every turn. We were fortunate for perfect weather. We also stopped for lunch at a hidden treasure of a boutique hotel with ridiculously good food and drinks in a very cool outdoor dining area. While traveling between stops another great thing about Joshua was how he prepared us for what to expect and gave us instructions on do’s and don’ts. He did everything in such a friendly, knowledgeable and welcoming way it really made the experience so much better.
allnightpwny Butt –
This was an amazing trip. Joshua was our guide and he made the trip. It was astonishing to see the other tour guides not saying much and our tour guide who was friendly and informative. We actually could see other tours in Tulum listening to Joshua. The Cenotes were experiences of a lifetime. We took Joshua’s recommendations and it didn’t disappoint. The company was super responsive and professional. They picked us up on time, were very friendly, and were always aware of bathroom breaks, head counts, and lines. Amazing company. As an aside, lunch was the best meal we had for our entire 10 day trip. It’s not some “tacked on” thing. It was really delicious
Nicholas –
Tulum Trek with Cenotes
Easy breezy tour to Tulum ruins and 2 cenotes with door to door service from our resort. Our tour guide Arturo provided a plethora of cultural facts about the Mayan settlement in Tulum and our driver Enrique provided a comfortable pleasurable ride. Top notch service all day from both and would highly recommend for your next excursion. Do as many cenotes as you can!
Sarah –
The perfect day trip for a large group
We booked a private tour for our group of 16 and it was incredible! Could not recommend more highly. They were able to provide transportation in a van large enough for the entire group, and our guide Arturo was knowledgeable, friendly, and funny. The ruins were beautiful. The cenote we went to was fantastic and not crowded at all. Then the location they chose for the included lunch was delicious. It was honestly the perfect day trip!
Sue –
We did the Tulum Mayan ruins + 1 cenote private tour and our tour guide was Alex and our driver was Enrique. I cannot say enough good things about them. We booked last minute, but everything was handled professionally and no stress at all on our part. We felt safe the entire time Enrique was driving. We learned so much about the history of the Mayan ruins and cenotes from Alex. You could tell he really knew his stuff and he enjoyed what he was doing. Since it was our last full day in Mexico, we wanted to do a short tour and this was exactly what we were looking for. We were picked up at 7 and got dropped off by 12. We never felt rushed at any point and it was the perfect tour for our schedule. We will for sure rebook this company for the Chichen Itza tour when we return. 1000000/10 stars.

Tulum Ruin/Cenote Snorkeling
Alex and Enrique were awesome tour guides! Showed up right on time and made everything really easy the entire day. Learned a ton about Mayan history and the geography of the area. 10/10. Book your trip with these guys if you get a chance

Perfection
Juan was literary the most amazing tour guide. We could not have asked for a better experience! If your considering this, do it!!!!!
Erica –
I took our Company Team on this tour. Our driver was Rodrigo and our tour guid was Juan. They arrived together early and and we left right on time for our adventure! It was a fantastic experience. Juan was very knowledgable and got us to the ruins early enough that no one was around. We then saw two different cenotes and had the best time. Highly recommend this tour company.
Juan –
Amazing tour…but even better tour guides.
Just got back from the Tulum ruins and cenote swim tour and it was amazing!!! So worth it. Our guide Joshua did such a great job explaining the history of the Mayan culture and we learned a lot. However the best part, in my opinion, was the cenote swimming. Joshua’s love of being in the water made him the perfect guide to snorkel and explore the inners of the cenote. Him and our driver Enrique made the day perfect!!! I highly recommend booking this tour.
Page –
Another excellent tour with Absolute Adventure México! They are my favorite tour company.
Arturo was an amazing tour guide and made the day extra special. Thank you! I already know which tour I’m doing with Absolute Adventure México on my next visit!!
Shai –
This was an amazing trip and the guides did an amazing job. One of my favorite parts about my visit to Playa Del Carmen. An absolute must do!
Ruth –
We recently went on a private tour with Juan, our guide, and Rodrigo, our driver, and it truly surpassed our expectations! Juan was fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and full of energy. Right from the start, it was clear this was no ordinary tour. The information was engaging and tailored to our interests, and Juan had a real talent for making even the historical details come alive. We had an amazing time exploring the stunning Tulum Ruins and Cenote Taak Bi Ha! The timing was perfect too; everything fit our schedule without feeling rushed.
Overall, I can’t recommend this tour highly enough! If you’re looking for a memorable experience with a guide who really knows their stuff, Absolute Adventure is the way to go.
Heidi –
We just returned from a trip to Tulum, Mexico and our trip to the Mayan Ruins and cenotes with this group was OUTSTANDING!!! Our tour guide JJ seemed more like an old friend than just a tour guide!! He had us laughing and learning some amazing things about the culture. Avacados will never be the same! An ABSOLUTE 10/10 for JJ!!
Thank you for making our trip even better than expected!!!
Kathi –
We had a wonderful tour with Arturo as our guide and Omar as our driver. They were both courteous and helpful, and Arturo is an incredibly knowledgeable guide. The company offers a variety of options. When our original tour was canceled because of a nearby tropical system, the company reached out and offered to waitlist us if there was a cancellation. Pretty quickly, we were able to reschedule for the next day. We had a beautiful tour of the Tulum ruins and went snorkeling in a cenote. Lunch was lovely.
O.R. –
My sister and I had a 10/10 experience with absolute adventure! We were picked up promptly from our hotel and headed to the Mayan ruins. Our guide Arturo was kind and extremely knowledgeable! He was able to answer any questions that we had. We then headed to a centote, which was an amazing experience. Our driver and guide kindly took us to get lunch and go to an atm after that!! Throughout the whole process, we were very comfortable and not at all rushed. This was our best day in tulum hands down! At first I was apprehensive about the price, but this tour was worth every penny!!!
Olivia –
My sister and I did a tour of the Mayan ruins as well as snorkeling at a cenote through absolute adventures!!! Our guide was Arturo, and he was helpful and kind throughout the whole tour. He was very knowledgeable about Mayan history and was able to answer any questions we had!! The snorkeling experience was absolutely amazing as well!!! We were never rushed and this tour exceeded our expectations. This is definitely worth the money, you won’t regret it!! The whole process went smoothly and Arturo was very knowledgeable!

I had an incredible time on the Cenotes adventure in Tulum, and Arturo was a huge part of that experience! He was super friendly, knowledgeable about the area, and always made us feel safe and comfortable. His passion for the cenotes and the history of Tulum really showed, making the adventure even more enriching. Arturo is someone you can truly trust, and I would 100% recommend him for anyone looking to explore the cenotes!
Scott –
Ruins and cenote tours were amazing. Thanks to JJ for being an amazing tour guide. Highly recommend!
Cecilia –
Our guide, Joshua took us through the Mayan ruins. He has a great gift for explaining the history of the Mayans/history of Mexico. The adventure we booked also included a visit to a cenote. Definitely worth a visit and a snorkel if you can.

Best Experience
This was our favorite part of the whole trip! Our guide was wonderful and shared so much interesting information throughout.The lunch was delicious! Definitely recommend booking this tour.
Shannon –
This tour was the highlight of our trip! We were two families, with kids ages 8-15 and everyone loved it. Online booking was super easy, prices were reasonable, and communication from the company was great. Alex was an amazing guide! Very knowledgeable and friendly. We were picked up promptly and the van was clean and comfortable. They had it stocked with waters, juices and beers for us. Tulum was a great option to see ruins with the little kids. We chose the cave cenote and WOW. We could have stayed there all day. Alex had water proof flashlights for us to swim with which really helped us explore and see more (none of the other tour guides had those for their groups). After the cenote we had a fantastic lunch at the family owned restaurant onsite at the park where the cenote was located. We highly recommend this company and would absolutely use them again!

Amazing private tour
We had the best day today with Alex and Omar. We first went to Tulum and Alex shared some amazing Mayan knowledge with us.
After Tulum we went to the cenote which was amazing. 😍 It was our first time snorkeling and honestly, incredible doesn’t describe it well enough.
We then went and had a delicious lunch before coming back to the resort.
The private tour was absolutely the right choice for us. We could go at our pace, ask questions, and it was so nice to have Alex with us throughout.
Highly recommend this company and hopefully you get Alex as your guide. 🩷
Alejandro –
We took a private day tour and our guide Arturo was awesome, he was very informative and patient with us. Made the tour memorable with how he was showing us the ruins and exploring the underground cenote.
Shobhit –
We took 2 private tours with Arturo, and both were phenomenal! We had two young kids, and it was not a problem for them to go slow and customize the tour for us. Highly recommended!

Breathtaking cenotes, Tulum and the best guide in the business
We couldn’t have had a better day and experience. With several companies to choose from, we chose Absolute Adventures because of how friendly and helpful Claire was in addition to all of the great reviews, which were 100% accurate.
We consider ourselves incredibly lucky that our guide was Juan Jose and driver Omar. Juan was deeply knowledgeable and kind, and simply a cool dude. It was like we had been friends for years. His tour of Tulum was informative and fun, and he chose the perfect breathtaking cenotes for us to visit.
Wonderful and beautiful natural attractions in Tulum and the cenotes + the best guide and driver there could be = a once-in-a-lifetime experience that we will never forget and can’t recommend highly enough!
Angelica –
This was the perfect tour for our family! Our tour guide, Joshua, was knowledgeable and taught us so much about the Mayan/Tulum culture with explanations of each house, building, and temple, as well as swimming with us and showing us the ins and outs of Cenote Taak Bi Ha. Our driver Rodrigo got us safely from location to location, while keeping the air on in the van, which was a much needed respite from the humidity and the heat.
From the ruins to the cenote to our delicious lunch, we had a beautiful experience, and we were so happy that we went with this company! Thank you again to Joshua and Rodrigo for accommodating our party of 11 in the best way possible. What a great memory for all of us to share together!

Amazing Tulum Cenote Experience
We’ve done several tours in MX over the years. This is the only way we will do tours on future visits. Arturo was amazing and the whole experience was spectacular. Lunch was so good and even had vegan options. What a great experience! We will be using absolute tours for future trips!
Brandy –
Our guide Jacob was amazing. He hung around and had lunch with us, held on to those who couldn’t swim and we’re still scared in the cenote.
Katie –
Great Trip Great time! The guides were amazing and made the excursion suit our preferences. Very knowledgeable about the Mayan ruins

Wonderful time in Tulum
Our tour to Tulum ruins and a cenote was spectacular! Joshua and Arturo did an amazing job. They were extremely accommodating, kind, and helpful.
Would 100% recommend using this company again for future tours.
Raegan –
Such a great experience! Our guides were knowledgeable, attentive, and made sure everything was taken care of. They offered to take pictures when needed and made sure we had plenty of time to look around shop. They made the day super easy and I’d highly recommend!
Chantel –
We loved our tour! Joshua and Rodrigo were amazing. It was very rainy other day of our tour and we were worried it would be a ruined day. They adjusted our tour so we were still be able to experience Tulum and a Cenote (we had originally booked swimming with turtles but the beach was closed). They provided drinks for our kids, umbrellas, and amazing information throughout the day. Joshua was amazing and took great family photos for us at key points of our tour. We loved our tour and would highly recommend it!
Anonymous –
Alex was an incredible guide. From pick up to returning. He was incredibly knowledgeable and patient with the kids who were struggling with the humidity. The cenote was an amazing experience. Jumping and swimming into the cenote was thrilling and relaxing. The tour took us too an excellent restaurant after the cenote.
Kimberly –
Top notch company! Very professional and friendly service! They tailored the experience to exactly what we wanted and it was nice that it was just us. They showed up on time with cold drinks. Joshua was amazing and thorough at explaining the history and helped us feel safe while traveling through the caves. A+++ highly recommend!

Do yourself a favor and book with Absolute Adventure Mexico!
My family had two major adventure goals for our vacation – seeing the Tulum Mayan ruins and snorkeling. With this tour, we got to do both and so much more!
Arturo was fantastic – knowledgeable, kind, and attentive! He picked us up early in the day for our private tour of the ruins, where he taught us about the history and culture of the Mayan people of Tulum. He helped us take photos and pointed out incredible details and sights.
Then he took us to our choice of cenote. He taught us how to snorkel and led us through an underground wonderland of cool, clear water and incredible rock formations.
Afterwards, we enjoyed a delightful authentic Mexican lunch and more conversation with Arturo. He was a delightful guide, never hurrying us, cheerfully assisting with photos, and engaging us in every phase of our adventure.
If you’re in the area and have the opportunity, book your tour with Absolute Adventure Mexico. I only wish there were more stars to give them.
Yehdahm –
Joseph was a wonderful and knowledgeable guide showing us the history and beauty of dos ojos in tulum! Highly recommend
Jonathan –
Juan was a great guide ! Very personable, funny, and knowledgeable. He made the experience very memorable and I would gladly recommend this tour. The car was very clean and there was cold water / soda available. The Tulum Ruins were amazing and it was clear Juan had a passion for the history as he explained different things to us and answered our various questions. We struggled to make a decision on which Cenote to go to, but Juan made a great recommendation. If you book, you’ll have a great time.

Shared Magic
Our recent tour with Absolute Adventure Mexico exceeded our expectations (2 adults, & kids 15, 12). I HIGHLY RECOMMEND a private tour as it saves time and provides a more intimate experience. Don’t go with the crowded tours advertised at the resorts!!!
Our pickup and drop-off were timely and comfortable; we had just the right amount of time at each location without feeling rushed. The Tulum ruins and history are fascinating and Cenote Nicte-Ha was pure magic. The fabulous, fresh lunch and margaritas at Restaurante Juanita was the perfect way to end our tour.
Alex (guide) and Omar (driver) were courteous and professional, and Alex’s knowledge of the area and Mayan history is vast. He is a credentialed, experienced tour guide and fluent English speaker. Alex made our trip to Tulum truly magical! He believes in the importance of shared experiences to connect us and we wholeheartedly agree. His love for the local history, and culture, and joy for sharing it with others is a special experience not to be missed on your visit to the area. However, if you don’t end up getting Alex as your guide, it’s apparent that Absolute Adventure values quality tours and guides, so you are in good hands.
We will book another tour with Absolute Adventure when we return to Mexico and specifically request Alex. Thank you, Alex and Omar!

Juan was amazing! On time,, knowledgeable, and took his time in every place. He made sure we got all the photos we wanted, he was warm and engaging. The stops were amazing, the food delish, highly recommend!
Garret –
JJ was an entertaining and informative guide. Had a great time on their tour.
Ian –
If you’re staying anywhere near Playa this is a must do!! Alex is an incredibly knowledgeable guide and gave us tons of interesting historical background on the ancient Mayan civilization in Tulum as well as the geology and history of the cenote we snorkeled in. Omar was a fantastic driver and was very helpful giving us snorkeling gear and keeping us safe. I’d give this tour 6 stars if I could.

Family trip to Mexico
Alex and Arturo are the BEST!!!
They arrived to our house on time! Van was large enough and comfortable for all 9 of us.
Arturo was a super safe driver, very courteous and helped Alex take care of us, making sure we all had our gear and anything else we needed.
Alex knows his history and has so much knowledge!!
He was accommodating to all questions, needs and requests. He even got down to our 8 yr old granddaughters level to listen to her question and explain answers. So sweet! Their care and concern for your safety was spot on!!
We choose the Tulum Cenote adventure. We never felt rushed. The cave Cenote was so awesome! We smorkled at our comfort level. They were there for our safety!!
Highly recommend Arturo and Alex!!
Thank you both for an amazing adventure!!
X6671DTryane –
Amazing experience! Alex was our guide and provided fantastic historical insight into the history of the Mayans. The Cenote was beautiful and maintained by a fantastic Mayan family. The lunch was delicious and the hand made tortillas were the best we had while on vacation. Arturo was a fantastic driver and got us every where. Definitely ask for Alex and Arturo!
Neicha –
Absolutely worth it. Our guide Juan was so friendly and knowledgeable about the area. He helped me get comfortable with snorkeling as I had never done it before. He was so patient and gave excellent directions. By the time the tour was over I was almost a pro! The cenotes we went to were absolutely amazing and the Tulum ruins are a must see! We thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and would 100% recommend it to anyone! Thanks again, Juan and our driver Omar!
Michael –
Our tour to Tulum and a Cenotes. Alex, our guide, was amazing with a wealth of knowledge explaining many of the history details and escorted us around Tulum. We chose the underground cave Cenote which was spectacular. When would you get a chance to be in an underground cave with stalagmites. The water was nice and cool and crystal clear. It was an amazing adventure in a nice AC’d van. I would absolutely recommend this company and I would encourage the cave Cenote if you choose this tour type.
Canaryblue –
Excellent tour and guided!
Absolutely thrilled with our experience with Alex and Omar from Absolute Adventure Mexico! From the moment we embarked on our journey through the Mayan Ruins to diving into the crystal-clear waters of a Cenote and swimming with majestic turtles, every moment was seamlessly orchestrated by Alex and expertly navigated by Omar. Their passion for the history and beauty of the region was contagious, and Alex’s depth of knowledge added immeasurable value to our adventure. Simone and I couldn’t have asked for a more memorable day, and we wholeheartedly recommend Absolute Adventure Mexico to anyone seeking an unforgettable exploration of Mexico’s wonders. Thank you, Alex and Omar, for making our experience truly exceptional!

Great tour and enjoyable day
This was a great tour. It was especially nice to arrive at the Tulum ruins earlier than the crowds. We had a choice of cenotes and the one we chose was fanastic. Our guide Arturo was very knowledgeable. We did do a swim with turtles. This was a little busy for our liking with lots of people crowding the turtles. Didn’t stay at that stop long. Oh and the restaurant stop was really good.
Bart –
Absolute Adventure Mexico is the perfect company to book your private tours. They were so helpful and saved us a lot of money. Our guide, Joshua, gave us a tour in English and Spanish so my Spanish high school students were able to hear and practice their language skills. We were short on time so they helped us design the best tour to see as much as possible in the few hours we were off the cruise ship. We visited Tulum and cenotes and they gave us lunch on the run to get us back in time for the cruise. We would recommend this company and love to go back to visit more of Mexico with them.
Karen –
Private tour with an amazing guide.
We booked 2 private tours with Absolute Adventure after reading several reviews. Both were amazing experiences. We were fortunate enough to have Arturo as our guide for both tours. The first tour was to visit the Ancient Mayan Ruins in Tulúm. Arturo was very knowledgeable and informative all while keeping us engaged. He made the tour fun and even takes the best pictures! The second tour we took was to Dos Ojos. To be honest I was a bit nervous about going into a bat cave but Arturo made sure I was comfortable and to be honest, there was nothing to worry about. The tour was amazing. We could take as much time as we wanted. If you want to stay away from the crowds this company made sure we were one of the first ones at each tour. I would definitely recommend this company. Also Arturo is a gem. Hope you will be lucky enough to have him as your guide.
Stacy –
This was truly the only tour we needed to do & a highlight of our trip to the Mayan Riviera. Our driver Enrique safely navigated us through the busy roads & then stayed with the van keeping our belongings safe. Arturo, the most engaging & knowledgeable guide ever, showed us around the Tulum ruins. By using them, we avoided the crowds, an absolute must! Our next stops were 2 cenotes recommended by Arturo. They were truly magical & we are still talking about them! All this was finished off with an authentic Mayan lunch owned by a Mayan family. We highly recommend Absolute Adventures, it’s worth the splurge!
Matthew –
We will use again and tell our friends!
Carlos –
We did a private tour to Tulum and Cenote swim. Arturo our guide was amazing, knowledgeable with great insights from Tulum. He was flexible and patient with our youngest who is on the spectrum. This is the only way to go after seeing all the other big tours. I would recommend Absolute Adventure for any of your tours.
Matina –
An enjoyable tour we won’t forget!
Arturo was our guide through Tulum, lunch and a snorkeling swim in a Cenote. He was so knowledgeable and made our tour interesting and fun. He knew so much about the ruins of Tulum, we learned alot and even discovered the Mayan words we still use today! Lunch was delicious and we relied on him for ordering as well, I got the mole special, very good. Then we swam and snorkeled in a lovely cenote and discovered things about them. It was the perfect ending to a day full of memories. We were two adults and two teenagers and we all agreed it was a memorable day. I highly recommend this tour and ask for Arturo, you will have a wonderful time.
Cindy –
Juan was such a great guide! He knew exactly where to go for the best pictures (and takes amazing photos) and had a great knowledge on the history. Definitely would recommend for anyone and will be using Absolute Adventure again!!
Kelly –
We had booked a customized private tour to Tulum, a Cenote, and Lunch and a transfer from PDC to Cancun. Our driver (Enrique) and our guide (Juan) were fantastic. Very professional, courteous, and overall a pleasure to spend the day with. I can’t recommend this company enough!
Sophia –
Amazing tour!
Arturo was an amazing guide. He was very knowledgeable and was happy to answer all of our questions. Definitely a once in a lifetime experience!

Tulum ruins and cenote from Cancun
My 16-year old son and I did the Tulum ruins and cenote tour from Cancun. We had an early start and got to the ruins before the crowds. When we arrived to the cenote, we had it to ourselves. Alex our guide was fantastic and full of knowledge. My teen son even said, you can tell Alex loves his job. Thank you to Alex for a great tour and Omar, our driver, for driving us around safely. Highly recommend this tour.

Great day with knowledgeable guide
Our guide and driver were great! Our drive was safe and punctual. Our guide was knowledgeable and fun to spend the day with. He was able to answer all of our questions and gave great suggestions for cenote choices and lunch.
Blair –
5 Star … Highly Recommend! Beautiful tour of the Tulum ruins, including an unforgettable swim at a Cenote and authentic Mexican lunch with Arturo.
Corinne –
We spent a great half day with our friendly guide, Arturo. We were one of the first groups to enter the ruins in the morning and received interesting information as well as enough time for photos. We even had the cenote all to ourselves! It was incredibly beautiful there. We even saw bats! We were able to decide for ourselves how long we wanted to stay and were offered a good mix of care and free time. Thank you for the good organization!
Mark –
This experience was amazing! The tour guides were awesome, and didn’t rush you and made you enjoy your time. I highly recommend this tour
David –
Exceptional Experience.
Great tour! Arturo was an amazing guide sharing the secrets of Tulum, guiding us through the beautiful Cenote and hosting us for an extra-tasty authentic Mexican lunch. 5+ stars !
Shauna –
Seeing the Mayan ruins of Tulum and swimming in a cenote was high on our wish list for our recent family holiday to Tulum. I loved how easy it was to find the type of tour we wished to take and book it with Absolute Adventure Mexico. I think it took me less than 10 minutes and I did it all from a sun bed at the resort. Far better than sitting at a tour desk! So firstly, the company gets an A+ for that.
The private tour itself was great. We beat the crowds by going early in the morning. Joshua was our guide and Gregorio our driver. Both were warm and personable and Joshua was engaging and very knowledgable on so many topics – the history, flora/fauna/ecology, the region and geology. He had good answers for just about any question we asked. I could tell he really loved his job! We also really liked the small touches such as cold drinks in the car and offers to take photographs of us as a family.
Finally, the lunch we had was delicious. Overall, it was a great half-day excursion. I highly recommend Absolute Adventure Mexico and would book with them again. Thank you, Claire, and your team.
Sara –
Excellent tour experience
This excursion was amazing! The ruins and cenote were beautiful and Joshua and Rodrigo were great hosts. We had a wonderful lunch and got to snorkel with some turtles and manta rays. Definitely recommend doing this tour!
Robin –
Wonderful tour!
I never write reviews, but this tour was an amazing experience for our girls trip to Mexico! Our guide Arturo was wonderful, informative and patient as we stepped outside our comfort zones while snorkeling and jumping into cenotes. He taught us a lot about Mayan history during the ruin tour. It felt like we had a local friend guiding us around–he even went out of his way to find coconuts. We had a blast, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book another tour here!
Loma –
Such a great experience. Our guide was kind, informative and went out of his way to make sure we were having a good time. He found us fresh coconuts, helped us decide on the right cenote for us and worked around some special requests. The Tulum tour was stunning and the cenotes were stunning. Definitely recommend the private tour!
Deanna –
We did the Maya ruin tour at Tulum and a cenote with fish, underwater lillies, small cave. Our tour guide, Alex, was very knowledgeable, professional, personable and courteous. English being our first language, he spoke very good English and was easy to understand. Very smooth process, start to finish. We did not feel rushed and thoroughly enjoyed our time. We are planning our next snorkeling tour with them in a couple days before we head back home.
Frank –
Arturo was an excellent guide! He was professional and knowledgeable also personable and patient. We would recommend this tour and would also consider other tours this company operates.
Sarah –
Really the BEST experience
Went with to Tulum for a bachelorette party, and our group wanted to go to a Cenote during our stay. As you can imagine, no one was fond of the idea of leaving super early in the morning, but we are so glad we did. Alejandro and Rodrigo picked us up at our airbnb in Tulum town, and patiently waited for all 6 of us to get in the van. Alejandro was extremely knowledgeable and able to answer all of our random questions while touring the ruins. There were hardly any people when we did our tour, so we were able to appreciate the ruins and enjoy the beauty of the landscape. We realized how lucky we were to beat the crowds as other tours started to pour in as we were walking out. The cenote was absolutely magical, and once again we arrived before any of the crowds. At one point we had the whole cenote to ourselves. Alejandro made sure we were comfortable the whole time, often helping take pictures, bringing us snorkels or lifejackets so we didn’t have to get out of the water, etc. Do not even hesitate to book this tour – and 100000% ask for Alejandro. He’s just one of those people that truly stands out as a kind soul.
Kha-Mei B –
We loved our tour with Aquaman/Alejandro (we’re big fans of his work). I wanted a tour that wouldn’t take all day and was attracted to the exclusivity of a private tour. It is absolutely worth it. Alejandro and Rodrigo were punctual and stopped for coffee on our way to Tulum since our pick up time was 6AM. We arrived at the entrance of Tulum a few minutes before the gate opened and we experienced total serenity in a magical place. As we left it was filling with tourists and we were so glad we got there early. Alejandro is an amazing tour guide. He is incredibly knowledgeable and considerate. We appreciated that he was passionate about the Mayan culture and loved the history. He allowed us to explore the cenotes but also taught and showed us interesting aspects of them. We had plenty of time at each location and were well cared for. Do not hesitate to book and make sure to ask for Alejandro!
Tom –
Cenote and Ruins in Tulum.
Arturo, our guide, was excellent; from his knowledge of the area, to his friendliness and easy going mentality, it was a treat to spend the day with him. They were on time in a nice clean vehicle waiting to welcome us. Would highly recommend.
Mitchell Hecht –
Not the cheapest option but you get what you pay for. Timely, informative, friendly, and helpful. What else can you ask for? Highly recommend this if you’re looking for an exceptional guided tour in playa.

Tulum Ruins with Cenote snorkel
Excellent tour. Private is the way to go. Just the two of us, our guide, Juan, and our driver (sorry can’t remember his name!) Pick up right on time in a van, very early to beat the crowds. Juan was very energetic and gave us lots of information. We arrived at the ruins early, very quiet, not busy. Good tour around the site, lots of information. As we were leaving, the crowds were pouring in! Good timing! Off to the Cenote. Beautiful cave and not very crowded. A little scary getting down there and into the water, but Juan was very patient and helpful and got me in there in one piece! Lunch was a great choice, with great food and great conversation with Juan. Would highly recommend for couples or small groups. Claire (co-owner) also very prompt at returning email requests.
April –
Excellent experience
Josh and Enrique were excellent! Josh was extremely knowledgeable and taught us a lot about the Mayan ruins. He took some family photos of us at the site that turned out great. We have good photos to remember our time there.
At the cenote, Josh was great with my kids. He even jumped off the rocks into the cenote to make my kids more comfortable with it and both my 11 year old and 6 year old jumped in! He made it a good thing for them to try it and experience that. Definitely recommend them for anyone going there.
Kim –
I can not rave enough about our tour and our tour guide, Alex! This was my sister and I’s first time in Playa Del Carmen and I really wanted to swim in a Cenote and see the Tulum Ruins and this was the perfect way to do it!! They picked us up right at our hotel and we got to Tulum right away when it opened when there was hardly anyone else there. After we chose to swim in the Cenote Taak bi Ha, which was absolutely incredible!! Alex was so informative teaching us all about Mayan culture and Mexico, not to mention just an all around good person and super easy to talk to, and I’m so glad we got to “hang out with a local” having an amazing experience! He also took some great pictures of us to capture the experience! The lunch was also incredibly delicious!! This was without a doubt the highlight of our trip and an experience I know I’ll be talking about for years to come. I can not recommend this company and tour enough!
Jonathan –
Juan and Enrique were excellent, Juan gave us a fantastic tour of Tulum, extremely knowledgeable about the history of The Maya and the city. He took us to the best spots and and great views! After the ruins we went to two different cenotes, Nycta and Tak Biha, both were beautiful and Juan was great about showing off the different features making sure we didn’t miss anything! If you use this company be sure to ask for Juan and Enrique!
Brenda –
Juan and Omar were a pleasure. On time and quick to get us to the sites ahead of everyone else. We were the first to go into Tulum
Ann –
Incredible experience! Recommend 1000%!!! We did a private tour beginning with Mayan Ruins, then snorkeling in 2 very different cenotes, followed by an authentic Mayan lunch in the jungle. Our guide Alex was fantastic! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and fascinating. Alex clearly loves his work and passes on his passion as he shares and informs all day long. Our driver Enrique was also terrific. We felt completely at ease going from place to place and leaving our belongings in the van while we toured. Every detail of the day was in their hands, including pre-purchased tickets to each destination, so all we needed to do was relax, learn, and have fun! The cost of the private tour was very reasonable and included all ticket entries and even the delicious lunch. In summary, this awesome tour was exactly as promised and lived up to its many 5-star reviews! We STRONGLY recommend Absolute Adventures!
David J –
Great tour to Tulum and the Nicte Ha and Taak bi Ha cenotes, followed by an authentic Mexican lunch at Juanita’s restaurant. Our tour guide Josh was amazing, so knowledgeable about the Mayan culture and the history of Tulum. He was also very informative about the cenotes and helpful with snorkeling instructions. As a bonus he spoke very good English. Thank you Josh for leading a great adventure and a lifetime of memories.
Stacy –
Juan Jose “JJ” was FANTASTIC! We really couldn’t have asked for a better guide. He was personable, interacted with our whole group, and was incredibly knowledgeable about the area as well as the Mayan history. We toured Tulum early and he knew exactly when and where to go to avoid the crowds and get the best views/pics.
Then he guided us on our two cenotes – Jaguar and Taak Bi Ha. Jaguar ziplining was so much fun – if you get the chance to go upside down, do it! And our group enjoyed jumping off the platforms and snorkeling in the water (you can see the bottom but it’s darker water).
Taak Bi Ha was amazing – I enjoyed it much more since the water in the cave was completely clear. Finally, we enjoyed a delicious lunch before heading back to the resort. I feel horrible that I don’t remember our driver’s name (he was a little quiet but very friendly 🙂 ), but we were very thankful for his navigating us to and from safely!
10/10 recommend going with Absolute Adventure Mexico, and even more so if you have JJ as your guide- he really made everything enjoyable! Thank you for a great day!!
Monica –
Just ended a fantastic day with tour guide Joshua and driver Enrique. Our pick up was extremely early so we were delighted to be allowed to stop for a coffee and snacks on the way to Tulum. Joshua gave us an excellent history of the ruins, people and customs of that era. Then we headed to Dos Ojos cenote. So exciting to snorkel through caverns covered with stalagmites and stalagtites, and end with the bat cave with ceiling covered with… you guessed it, bats. Our family felt safe as Joshua snorkeled with us. Lastly we enjoyed a delicious authentic Mexican lunch. The ride back allowed us to learn even more about the Mayan as well as modern Mexican culture. Would highly recommend this company and of course Joshua! Thank you Absolute Adventure
Troy –
Omar was a great driver and Alex was very knowledgeable of Tulum and history of the Mayans. I would easily do another tour to experience more of the local culture and history from local experts.
Deonne –
Arturo was a fantastic tour guide. We had time constraints due to an accident on the way to Tulum but Arturo worked around our schedule to make sure we got to do as much as we could with the time we had. The air conditioning van was super roomy and an authentic lunch was provided too. A shout out to the owner Claire who was available at all times to answer any questions and I loved the fact that it was just our group of 4, so private and there was no one else at our cenote and zip line but us! I would highly recommend Absolute Adventure tours and well definitely be back!
Murtaza –
We did the Private Tulum ruins and single Cenote tour.
It was absolutely wonderful thanks to Omar and Arturo.
Arturo suggested the Cenote we should try and it was wonderful for snorkeling novices.
Definitely try them out and use their services and surely you won’t be disappointed.
Gloria –
Tour Arturo guide was wonderful. Very patient answered all questions learned history that I did not know. Took time to make sure we enjoyed our visit. Highly recommend.
Nixi –
Our guide, Arturo, was excellent – kind, knowledgeable & friendly. He was attentive to our needs (offered water, had us stand under shade when possible, took photos for us, helped us decide which cenote to visit). The ruins & the cenote were beautiful! The snorkeling was amazing! 100% recommend this company 🙂
Thanks again!
Ethany –
We just finished up our tour at the Tulum ruins, a cenote and then had an amazing lunch with our tour guide. We loved it! We had so much fun and learned a lot.
Patrick –
Awesome time seeing the ruins of Tulum with Carlos and Arturo, swimming in the cenote caves, enjoying authentic Mayan cuisine!
Louis –
We had an awesome private group experience with JJ! First time to Cancun and they picked us up on time, was great on the tour and had a lot of good knowledge to share with us. The ruins and the cenote were awesome! We had a great time and felt safe. Thanks JJ! Your friends from Alaska!
Carissa –
AMAZING!! So worth it to do the private tour! Our guide Alex was the best ever, and Carlos was our driver who was also the best! We totally got to ask all our questions and get told a ton of info while seeing the sights! 💯 Worth it!
Doug –
A fascinating tour and one of the best guides ever.
Excellent tour in every way. We took the complimentary ferry provided by Virgin Voyages from Cozumel to Playa del Carmen. Our guide Juan P was on time to pick us up at the Playa ferry port, and Omar, our driver, was ready a block away to start the tour. Tulum was, as expected, spectacular, all the more so with the engaging commentary provided by Juan. Besides the valuable information provided by Juan, he was very strategic in helping us avoid much of the line and finding shady places at Tulum to fill us in on what we were experiencing. The following snorkeling in a nearby Cenote was not only scenically fascinating but very refreshing after a fairly hot morning at Tulum. We then had a delicious lunch at a charming local restaurant.

Arturo, our guide, was very knowledgeable about the history of the ruins, polite, fun to visit with, and very personable. Do not look any further than this company to schedule an unforgettable adventure!
MJ –
This is a must-do tour! There’s nothing like having your own personal tour guide to maneuver you around and show you all the wonderful sites. Arturo, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable about the ruins, polite, fun to talk to, and very personable. Carlos, our driver, got us to our destinations safely and quickly. I guarantee you’ll have a blast and enjoy every second of it!

Joshua was a great tour guide! This private tour was the best part of our trip to Tulum. Highly recommend.
Abigail –
I really enjoyed my trip. It’s my first time coming to Mexico and was deciding whether booked with a private tour or a group tour. After this trip, I can say confidently, choosing the private tour is the best decision!! With our tour guide, Arturo, we were able to avoid crowds when we were at Tulum, to know all the details of the Tulum building, and to go to the two best cenotes (dos ojos and cenotes nicte ha), to slow down our trip whenever we needed to. Mind blowing and relaxing at the same time. My friend and I are already talking about our next trip with them to Chichen Itza 😊

I can’t recommend this company enough. We did a private half-day tour to Tulum + Cenote Nicte Ha + Cenote Dos Ojos with Arturo. We beat the crowd and had the highest tour quality. Arturo is very professional and knowledgeable, and he is great at taking pictures. The whole tour was chill while super interesting and breathtaking the whole time. They never rush us through anything, which makes the private tour better than the group tours.

We went on the Tulum Ruins tour with a visit to a cenote with Absolute Adventures Mexico and we had a blast! Our day started out at 6:30 am with our guide Arturo and our driver Carlos meeting us in our hotel lobby. They showed up on time, and extremely friendly. We had about an hour and a half drive down to the Tulum ruins where we were the first to arrive. Arturo and Carlos offered us water and soda before we entered the ruins. Being the first people to walk in the ruins that day was an amazing experience seeing all the history up practically all to our selves. Arturo was full of facts and knowledge, being able to answer all the questions we threw at him. He is also quite the photographer taking excellent photos of us. After walking through the ruins and absorbing all the knowledge, we walked back to the van seeing hundreds of not thousands of tourists walking towards the ruins, making us glad we had opted for the private, early tour. It is worth all the money to see the ruins to yourselves. We were offered cold soda, juice and water after getting back to the van and headed to Cenote Nic Te Ha. We were given the option to choose between 3 cenotes but after discussing with Arturo we figured based on the weather and what we wanted this would be the best one. The Cenote was beautiful with lots of different fish and plants. We snorkeled in a cave and enjoyed the crystal clear water. We had to all to our selves for about 75% of the time we spent there. Arturo again shared all his knowledge with us and swam around with us to show us all the cool spots. We were never rushed and Arturo reassured us that there is no rush and we can swim how ever long we like. When we decided to head to lunch Carlos offered us more beverages and we drove down the bumpy road with Carlos navigating extremely well to avoid as many bumps as possible. The lunch spot was a very authentic Mexican restaurant that was delicious. We got to choose what we wanted to eat and had some greats chats with Arturo who at this point felt like a family member! Once done lunch we were again offered beverages before the hour and a half drive back to our resort.
I have to say Arturo and Carlos provided A+ Service. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. They were so professional yet personable, and full of knowledge and fun that I would recommend to anyone I know to request to tour with them! Next time we are in the area I would love to go on another tour with Absolute Adventures Mexico.
Katherine –
Tulum ruins and cenote- great private tour!
Great half day adventure with Joshua! We did the tulum ruins and 1 cenote tour. We learned so much and really enjoyed our time exploring. We never felt rushed at any point. Joshua was very knowledgeable and extremely friendly. I would definitely recommend them to anyone!
Peter –
Great experience! With our tour, we were able to learn a lot about Tulum while we toured it. Our guide, Arturo, was amazing — very friendly, and very knowledgeable! We also felt very safe, as there was a dedicated driver who stayed with the vehicle and our belongings. We snorkeled in a Cenote, and our kids loved jumping in from the cliff. Our tour ended with a great meal near the Cenote… couldn’t be happier!
Marco –
The entire experience was amazing. From the booking process, to the email follow up by Claire (one of the owners), to the half day spent visiting the Tulum ruins, cenote and lunch in a typical local restaurant (with the added benefit of the adorable puppy Tula). Juan is an excellent and very personable guide. He is knowledgeable and funny, and made our experience even better. I would highly recommend Absolute Adventure Mexico and Juan if you are traveling to the Cancun area. Muchas gracias!
Jasleen –
Fun adventure
Absolute adventures was very accommodating to us. They were able to modify/customize a private tour for us to tulum. Juan was our guide and Carlos our driver and they were amazing! Juan was very helpful, fun, energetic and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this company.
A.S. –
Private, Not Crowded, Personable Experience!
My husband and I toured the Mayan Ruins in Tulum and went to the most beautiful cave cenote. Juan was very personable and knowledgeable and made the day fun! Omar was a great driver and the van was comfortable and clean. I would highly recommend this trip! I have been to Mexico many times and haven’t seen anything like it!
Ahsley –
We picked the best tour! Out of all. Of the options out there, we had a great private tour. Juan was very personable and knowledgeable and enjoyable to spend the day with. Omar was a great driver and the van was nice and clean. I would highly recommend this company for any tour and private was the way to go!
Tifany –
Alex was the best tour guide. He made our experience so relaxing and fun. He was very accommodating to all our requests and ensured we were safe the entire adventure. Very knowledgeable about the tulum ruins. The cenote swim was incredible. Also enjoyed a lovely lunch after a day of swimming! 10/10 would recommend if you’re ever visiting. Thanks Alex for the amazing time.
Deborah –
DEFINITELY RECOMMEND
We took this tour for a friends bachelorette so we had 18 people and we had such an amazing time. Rodrigo, Joshua and Alex picked us up early in the morning from Cancun and drove over to tulum. Alex was the most knowledgeable tour guide and told us so much about Mayan history and Tulum. He was so considerate of our group and being in the heat and was mindful to keep us in shaded areas. We then headed over to the cenote and we got there early enough so we felt like we had our own private cenote. It was so fun and refreshing especially in the heat. We were able to enjoy a delicious meal at Juanita’s. We all had such a good time with Alex and would definitely recommend him to anyone wanting to visit tulum and go on a tour and visit cenotes. Alex really ensured that we all had a great time. We also enjoyed our car ride due to our drivers Joshua and Rodrigo. They made sure the car with stocked with cold water and our car was cold whenever we would get in the car.
McRebel93 –
Great Mayan experience
If you are vacationing in the Cancún area, I highly recommend this private tour. Mayan ruins, Cenote cave swim, and a local Mayan restaurant with an incredible personal Mayan history lesson. Alex G was fantastic as he guided us through this experience and became like one of the family. Omar kept us safe and took us everywhere we needed to go with plenty of drinks to stay hydrated. My kids had a blast. Last, the process to book this was seamless and the customer service after booking was the best experience I have found.
Heidi –
Wonderful experience with our tour guide Arturo and the driver. Very professional company. Highly recommend.
Wendy –
Our tour and time with Alex was amazing!!!! So much fun and so knowledgeable!!! Would 100% recommend!!!!
Kellie –
Amazing trip to Mayan Ruins and Cenotes!
We had the best time with Arturo to see the Mayan Ruins and swim in the cenotes! He brought us drinks in a cooler and life vests and snorkel gear! He was so great with our two families – we got an early start to see the ruins (best way to go) and we had fun zip lining and jumping off platforms, and swimming in the cenotes! Thank you!
BB –
JJ was our guide to Tulum and the amazing Mayan ruins and a cenote! He had us at both locations before other tours were coming through so we were able to explore essentially alone! He was very knowledgeable and did a great job!
BK –
JJ was our guide to Tulum and the Mayan ruins as well as a cenote. He was an amazing guide and so knowledgeable about the history. He was fun and engaging and kept us entertained while seeing these amazing Tulum sites!
Brenda –
Secluded vibes at all our locations due to our knowledgeable guide! JJ was our guide and was full of knowledge about the ruins. He brought us there at the perfect time when essentially no one else was there yet! The cenote was beautiful and our lunch was delicious!
Jakob –
A wonderful experience. We had a great time with Alex G as our guide and Omar the driver. Alex was very knowledgeable of the ruins and of the cenote we went to. We chose the underground one and it was one of the coolest things we’ve ever done. The lunch at Juanita was delicious and there is a small shop where you can buy souvenirs with part of the proceeds going to the local school. The early departure is well worth it, you can beat the crowds and some of the heat at the ruins.
Overall 11/10. Well worth it, would 100% book again and ask for Alex and Omar.
Crystal –
We had the absolute best time with both the tours we booked through Absolute Adventure Mexico! Alex G. was our guide for both excursions. He was knowledgeable and fun every minute. He showed up early with a smile, coolers full of water & juice and then organized the group of 20 of us, took our food orders to call ahead to the restaurant (this was no small task as many of us have life threatening allergies) and took us on the most incredible adventures we could ever imagine all while maximizing shade, time and fun! I can’t possibly go into each detail but we were safe, hydrated, had all of our history and culture questions answered fully and had an amazing time! In total we did Tulum Chichen Itza, 3 gorgeous cenotes, toured Valladolid and ate at two fantastic restaurants. I highly recommend Absolute Adventures to everyone!
Aurora –
Me and my family visited Playa Del Carmen and took two tours with an amazing guide Alex G. Our first tour was to Tulum and we visited the ruins and two cenotes. After the beautiful cenotes we went to lunch at Restaurante Juanita, and had delicious authentic food with a great atmosphere. Our guide was amazing and did great with keeping 20 of us together and entertained for both adventures!!!
Tony –
We booked a private tour for 4, and I can’t emphasize how efficient and informative this tour is. Our tour guide was Juan Jose and we did the Tulum ruins and cenote tour. He was very knowledgeable and made the experience for us a memorable and very enjoyable one. If you want to make the most out of your time in Tulum, this is the best way to do it. Next time we come we will definitely be booking with them again to check out Chichén Itzá! Thank you Absolute Adventure Tours!
Mary –
Amazing service and an incredible tour! Highly recommend:)
CrazyC –
We highly recommend booking through Absolute Adventure! Alex was the most amazing guide and a beautiful human! It was so nice meeting you Alex! Thankyou again for a memory of a lifetime!
J.H. –
I can’t express how amazing the tour was, from Tulum to the cenote. We have been to several Tulum tours and cenote trips over the years but we had the chance to bring our large family – many of them for the first time in the area, and Juan surprised some of us experienced people with fantastic new detail and insight into Tulum. He also was amazing helping some of the non-swimmers relax and enjoy the cenote snorkel adventure. He made this trip so incredibly memorable for everyone on the trip.
Katie –
Amazing¡ Highly recommend. Beautiful views and perfectly planned. Food was delicious too. TheTulum stories were informative and educational. The cenote was fun and stunning.
Jason –
Juan and crew are consumate professionals. Incredibly knowledgeable and friendly! They know how to make your experience memorable and will go above and beyond to provide a wonderful day. Juan took extra time to help my wife who cannot swim, enjoy the cenote we visited. Would highly recommend their tours!!
Eliza –
We had a wonderful trip to Tulum and the Taak Bi Ha cenote finishing with a lovely meal at a local restaurant! Thank you to Alex and Rodrigo for taking such good care of our family!
Alison –
We took the tour of the Mayan ruins in Tallum and Dos Ojos cenote with Arturo and Alan. We could not have asked for a better experience! The guides were friendly and personable as well as very knowledgeable about the land and history of the regions we visited. It was truly a once in a lifetime day!
Michelle –
The tour we did was amazing! Alex was so knowledge about the Tulum Ruins and the cenotes. The tour was geared especially for us and we had a great time. A highlight of our vacation. Thank you Alex and Omar our driver.
bilzfam –
My extended family and I spent a day with Arturo as our guide. We were picked up early in the morning at our resort, on time, and made our way in a comfortable van to the Mayan ruins of Tulum. Arturo was a fantastic guide! He was personable, friendly and fun as he imparted his knowledge of the Mayan people, their history and the architecture. Then we travelled to the Dos Ojos Cenote, where we snorkeled and explored the awesome rock formations above and below water. We even swam into a hidden bat cave, which was a highlight of everyone’s day. Most importantly was Arturo’s warm and patient demeanor with my young niece and my daughter who has special needs. She requires a bit more assistance in unfamiliar situations, and Arturo went above and beyond to accommodate her and make us all feel comfortable. I would highly recommend Arturo and Absolute Adventure Tours to anyone looking for a memorable experience in Mexico!
Christine –
Arturo was so informative and fun. Really enjoyed learning about Tulum city and all the ruins. Swimming in the Cenotes was the highlight of the day. Capped off the tour with a fantastic Mayan lunch. Great experience all around.
Michael –
Top notch tour guides! I learned way more about the Mayan ruins and cenotes ecology than our friends that used another company.
I’d guess all their guides are professional, but book with Arturo if you can. He’s the kind of person you’d like to spend the day with, no matter what you’re doing.
Peggy –
Perfect Tour. “Absolutely” wonderful! Private tour is the only way to go. Dulce our guide and Rodrigo our driver were very knowledgeable and DELIGHTFUL company…they made the experience perfect!
Jess –
We did the tour of Tulum & 2 cenotes (Jaguar and Taak Bi Ha) Feb 2023. Juan, our tour guide, was amazing- full of knowledge, personable, and fun. Rodrigo, our driver, was efficient and helpful. We were a group of 9 women and had been cautioned not to use a tour group unaffiliated with our hotel, which made us a bit nervous. However, I’m so very glad we trusted the reviews and kept our booking with Absolute Adventure Mexico. It really was the highlight of our trip! Claire was also very responsive to all of our inquiries and even accommodated the addition of another person to our trip at the last minute. The van was clean, stocked with beverages, and comfortable. It was nice being able to leave belongings in the van. The information Juan gave us was engaging and he navigated us through the ruins with ease. Our lunch in the Jungle was excellente. The adventure and beauty of the cenotes will be a favorite memory forever. I would 100% recommend this company to others.
Jaime –
Amazing experience. My friends and I really enjoyed this private tour. Alex G. and Carlos showed up at our hotel on time and provided some history on our drive to the Tulum ruins. Alex made sure we had everything we needed and provided so much information we wouldn’t have learned had we done the trip by ourselves. We had a choice of cenotes and we went with Taak Bi Ha, which was amazing. I’ve never experience anything like that in my life. We really enjoyed our time and highly recommend Absolute Adventure.
Kelly –
The BEST-don’t hesitate! Amazing!!! This experience exceeded any expectations that I had. Our tour guide, Juan, was knowledgeable, experienced, savvy, fun and thoughtful. He knew all the tricks of getting us around in Tulum-with amazing photo ops to start, shady spots to tell us about the history and all the ways to skirt around the crowds. He then took us to the Cenotes where we had the best experiences! Zip lining, cliff jumps, snorkeling in caves shopping all followed by an amazing lunch at a restaurant in the jungle. I highly recommend this tour!
Arbuttz –
Just book it! Incredible experience, it definitely exceeded our expectations. Our tour guide Arturo is a fantastic guy, very knowledgeable about Tulum and Mayan history. Tulum was busy but Arturo took us on a good route to see everything and learn about the site. Next, the cenote he recommended was just magical and we couldn’t believe how quiet it was, there were only a few other people there. Arturo was patient teaching us how to snorkel which I was most nervous about. Lunch afterwards was super tasty! Omar was a great driver and the van was very comfortable. Overall a very special experience I highly recommend you book with Absolute Adventure!
Brandy –
Our guide Arturo was awesome! We had an amazing time and even though our visit to the Tulum ruins was early, it was totally worth it. The people were coming in by the bus loads as we were leaving. Timing is everything on a holiday!! The cenote was amazing!!! Lunch was an incredible stop! Awesome traditional Mexican lunch. Our daughters gluten free needs were met better than expected!! We will stop there for lunch again!! Our guide was very informative and had a terrific sense of humor. Spoke English very well as our Spanish is very limited.
Sarah –
We had a group of 14 adults and 3 kids under 3 years old for the Tulum and Cenote tour and everything went wonderfully.
Mary –
Wonderful day out. Dulce was an excellent guide and Omar was a great driver. We first went to the ruins – dulce was so informative and the morning was quite pleasant. Then off to an underground Cenote. Great fun. Would highly recommend this tour.
esco79ph –
We were picked up on time. The van we traveled in was comfortable. They had cold water and soda in a cooler ready for us. Our guide was Juan. He was such a pleasure! Spoke very good English and was very knowledgeable about Mayan culture and history. The Tulum and cenote experience alone was great but Juan made it even better. We had an amazing time! Worth every penny. Will definitely use this company again on future trips.
GO6805 –
Our tour guide Alex was a wealth of information. Not only did he explained what we were seeing but the why and how. He knew the path to take through the site to tie the story together upon exit. We were allowed to travel at our pace, not rushed, answered all questions, gave his opinion on “why” the Mayans did what they did, inserted humor and was an engaging guide. The cave denote was incredible and the meal provide yes fantastic.
Suzanne –
What an amazing excursion! We did a private tour of Tulum and a cenote as a group of 5, and Alex was an incredible guide. He’s super knowledgeable, explains things clearly, gives great context, and is just fun to hang out with. The cenote we chose was an underground cave, and Alex knew all about stalagmites, stalactites, geological formations, etc. Lunch was excellent and we were even able to add on a stop on Quinta Avenida for a few hours. Rodrigo was also a great driver, on time and accommodating. The private tour was well worth it, but I highly recommend booking with Absolute Adventure either way.
Andrea –
Our family of four had an amazing private tour back in December. Chris was our guide, and we toured the ruins and two cenotes. We also had delicious tacos for lunch. Our kids (ages 21 and 15) said it was their favorite part of our trip. I highly recommend booking your private tour with this company. Chris was wonderful- very easy going and knowledgeable about the sites and fun to talk to. The communication after booking up until the day of was very prompt and thorough. Everything exceeded our expectations.
Tara –
Tulum and cenotes w/o hassles. We fit two cenotes into this day trip (We got to choose from three possibilities) including a spectacular swim through a cave filled with stalactites. We chose this tour hoping to fit a lot in one day and Arturo made that happen, expertly getting us through throngs of tourists to enjoy the highlights of Tulum. It was great to be picked up and to be able to leave our items without worry in the van with our driver. All snorkeling equipment was provided. Thanks Arturo for your insight into Mayan culture! Wonderful day.
Peter –
We had such an incredible time on our tour with Alex as our guide and Carlos as our driver! We started the day touring the Tulum ruins, then went snorkeling in a beautiful cenote, and finished with a tasty Mayan lunch. Alex was a very knowledgeable tour guide and made the ruins come alive with interesting facts and stories. He also was able to answer all of our many questions. Carlos was professional and friendly. We highly recommend this tour!
Jose –
We went jan 2nd 2023 with Arturo as our guide. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, spoke English well, and took time to explain things to our 8 and 10yo. Would highly recommend thos service with Arturo. Easy well paced tour. Well worth the money and much better than a group guided tour.
Whitney –
Had a wonderful tour of Tulum and a relaxing cenote swim. Arturo was a very knowledgeable and entertaining guide. I would definitely recommend this tour for anyone visiting the area!
Sofia –
Great experience! We had private tour Tulum and cenote with guide Alex, Was really great experience. The tour provided also snorkeling gear, wet suit and Mexican lunch. Highly recommended
Jamie –
We booked with absolute adventures because of what they offered and all of the reviews we saw were highly praised the tour and tour guide. I can not tell you enough how awesome our tour and guide were. Arturo was absolutely wonderful and knowledgeable. He took his time, answered all of our many questions, was very helpful and was even taking pictures for us. We went to the tulum ruins and 2 cnotes. Lunch in the jungle was beautiful juanitas restaurant was set up for everyone to enjoy. The views were breathtaking. We felt safe and cared for Carlos our driver stayed with our personal belongings the whole day. If we could give more stars we would..
James –
We had a wonderful tour with Dulce as our guide and Carlos as our driver. Both were professional and courteous. Dulce was extremely knowledgeable and was able to answer all of our questions. After a very interesting tour of the ruins we snorkeled at a beautiful denote. The beauty of the area was sensational. We then had a delicious lunch topped off by a shot of tequila. Dulce is an excellent guide and a pleasure to spend the day with.
Jennifer –
We had an incredible time on our excursion! We had a group of 10 and the private tour with Arturo as our guide was top notch 🙌🏼 The lunch restaurant was absolutely delicious and a fun ambiance. Arturo was very accommodating with my handicap dad throughout the whole day!!
So thankful we found this excursion with Absolute Adventure!!
Luke –
So much fun! Learned a lot, clean vehicle with great AC, never felt rushed and Arturo was awesome !! Would highly recommend.
Yan –
One of the best things of our vacation! This private tour has ruined us for any group tours from here on out. Alex the tour guide and Omar the driver were the best dynamic duo! Alex was very knowledgeable and Omar was a very safe and steady driver! They picked up us on time, plenty of community and confirmation through WhatsApp days before, and never rushed us during the whole trip. Would recommend 100%.
Lisa –
My sister and I went on a private tour to the ruins and had originally booked a tequila tasting. The morning of the tour we were not feeling quite up to a bunch of tequila so we asked our guide, Arturo, if it would be possible to switch to go to a cenote instead. Arturo was so accommodating and was able to change for us. We had an amazing time touring the ruins, swimming in the cenote, and having a great lunch afterwards. Arturo was super knowledgeable, kind, accommodating, and most of all delightful to spend time with. We would for sure book another tour (and request Arturo) on our next trip to Tulum!!!
Gramma –
Don’t even know where to start with this review! Wish we could give our guide Alex and driver Omar 10 stars! BEST TOUR EVER!!! The whole day was perfect!.We were picked up at our hotel at 7am. As Omar drove us to Tulum, Alex began sharing interesting facts and stories about the Mayan culture and people. When we arrived, it was as if we were the only ones there. It was great being there before the heat and the crowds. Alex was so knowledgeable about everything we were seeing, and he pointed out things we would have never noticed. The walk around the ruins was so beautiful and peaceful. After a very leasurely walk around the grounds we were driven through the jungle to Nicte-Ha Cenote. Again, we were the only ones there except for some scuba divers who came out from the caves as we were snorkeling. The water was clear, cool and so refreshing. Again, we stayed as long as we wanted and we never felt hurried. On the way out of the jungle we were treated to a delicious lunch at a tiny family-owned restaurant.
S O –
We had an excellent experience with Absolute Adventure. Our tour guide Juan is incredibly knowledgeable and hospitality. When we first arrived at the Tulum ruins, he brought us to the viewpoint and took the photos without the crowd. After that, he walked through the Mayan culture with us. He had a booklet with him that included some pictures to help us better understand. His explanation was easy and clear to understand. Meanwhile, he took many high-quality photos of us. The two cenotes he recommended to us was fantastic.
Our tour driver is also very professional and caring. He prepared drinks in the car and snorkelling equipment when we arrived at the cenotes. He is also very polite and gentlemanly. It is my unforgettable tour experience in Cancun. Thank you, guys!
Jennifer –
We had a wonderful time on our tour! Our guide Juan was so friendly and super informative! It was like spending the day with a friend. Carlos was a great driver who navigated the freeway great!!
Joey –
Our tour guide Dulce was really nice and knowledgeable. Dulce picked us up from the Hilton in a van with a driver who stayed while we visited Tulum and a Cenote. They provided lunch as well as waters and cola in between stops. We had a great time! Highly recommend this tour company.
Ashley R. –
Excellent tour guide!! Very informational, patient, and kind
Jared –
Tulum & Cenotes
We had an amazing tour led by Dulce of Absolute Adventures Mexico. We started our day at the magical ruins of Tulum, where Dulce gave us an exceptionally thorough education in the history of this unique Mayan community. She was happy to answer our questions, patient with us when taking photographs, and also acted as a great photographer for us to be included in photos.
Following Tulum, we visited two cenotes: Nicte Ha and Taak Bi Ha. Each were exquisite and unique. Dulce expertly guided us through and around each. We finished our tour with a fun lunch at a local restaurant where we were able to further enjoy Dulce’s delightful personality.
If you are considering a tour of Tulum and/or the cenotes, do not hesitate to book with Absolute Adventures Mexico; and ask for Dulce!
Dee W –
We went to the tulum ruins not chicken itza due to our time schedule for a wedding, but this was still one of the best tours ever!! Ask for Juan, he was amazing!! We had the time of our lives! Juan was so informative and fun, he was simply amazing.
The experience of swimming in the cenote was not to be missed. And lunch was delicious. I highly recommend this tour and this tour company.
Natasha –
We had a great time on our excursion with Dulce (our guide) and Omar (our driver). We were picked up on time at 7:30 a.m. We got to Tulum about five minutes before it opened. Dulce guided us through the ruins, gave us a lot of historical information and took pictures of us. Then we went to two cenotes where she swam with us. Highly recommend going to the cenote in a cave. That was a very unique experience. Omar also came along to take pictures of us. Then we had a nice lunch at the restaurant with Dulce and returned to the hotel by about 12:30. We loved doing this completely private tour and would use this company again.
Lynn –
We had a great private tour with Juan! We beat the crowd at the ruins and then headed to two Cenotes. The Sac Actun Cenote exceeded our expectations. It was huge and spectacular! Every turn was a visual wonder and exhilarating! Totally recommend this Cenote. Thanks Juan for being such a great sport with our daughter.
Mikayla –
Our favorite excursion of our trip! Easy communication with the tour company throughout the entire process, and 100% worth the price to have our own private tour. Claire was our tour guide & she was outstanding. Very knowledgeable about Tulum, the cenote, and Playa in general. She knew where to get the best photos and how to maximize your experience. Being able to leave our bags with Angel (the driver) in the van was an added bonus. Tulum was beautiful, but the cenote (we chose Dos Ojos) was in a class all on its own. Gorgeous clear water, perfect for snorkeling. Claire swam with us and took all the photos we wanted. Lunch & a nice chat afterward at the lunch in the jungle was a wonderful bonus. We would take this excursion again in a heartbeat.
Travis –
Booked this for my honeymoon. Juan was our guide for this, did xplorer park the day before for reference so we were pretty tired. Juan went at our own pace as we were slow to move along. The 1st stop was to the ruins which are quite a scene if you have never seen anything like this before it’s worth a look. There is a bit of a walk so wear comfortable shoes. They also provided refreshments immediately. After the ruins we stopped at the shops so if you forgot something you can get it there and save yourself a cab ride and fare beforehand. After the ruins we went to the cave cenote( I mentioned earlier I went to xplorer ) this by far was head and shoulders above anything I saw the day before. Water was refreshing and clean snorkeling gear was provided for use. We wrapped up the trip on my own schedule as he provided my and my new wife some alone time in the cave. Once we completed this we went to a nearby restaurant. The food was great and the best tacos I’ve had in Mexico so far. We took tons of photos and rode back comfortably. This is worth the money and exclusivity compared to the larger groups. If you value time this is a no brainer.
Nancy –
our tour guide Alex was the absolute best! He knows so much about Mayan ruins, just talking with him made the history come alive. The whole day was incredible! The cenote was such a cool experience, I’ll never forget swimming in the cave. Lunch was delicious too. The whole excursion was perfect and really the highlight of our trip. Booking with Absolute Adventure was super simple too, such an easy process. Thanks so much for the epic experience, you guys rock!
Ben –
This was a truly amazing experience and a must do in Tulum. I recommend this crew specifically. The driving was safe and comfortable. The guide was knowledgeable and showed you all the secret spots. Listen to his suggestions and you will have a great time. The lunch was excellent. The adventure will be told many times over. Book this for Tulum!
Chad –
Juan and Roderigo were awesome! We had a great experience with our teenagers and they took great care of us. We will come back! We ate an outdoor restaurant near the denote in the jungle that had great food. The company was great to work with and made us feel comfortable with booking with then (we talked via e-mail, phone, and text).
Amanda –
I had searched for a while and read a ton of reviews before going with Absolute Adventures. It was above and beyond anything I could have expected!! Claire was so amazing, so friendly, so knowledgeable. The driver drove very safe and made us all so comfortable. The van was new and clean, they even kept cleaning it out in between each stop while we were doing an adventure! The guide knew all the right places and ways to go to skip lines… it was just so fantastic. I couldn’t have asked for a better day and I will most definitely be back for another adventure!!
Camper –
This company is a gem! Private tour of the ruins, swimming in a cenote & lunch in the jungle. Our tour guide Manuel was so friendly and knowledgeable. We were picked up from our hotel promptly at 6 am. The early wake up was so worth it to be the first one at the ruins. We had the place to ourselves. as we were leaving the mobs of people were first arriving. The lunch at Juanita’s was the best authentic food we had the entire trip.
We were back at our hotel by 2:30. We would definitely book again with this company.

Had Juan as our private tour guide who took care of every need, guiding, educating and picture taking. Had a great time wondering through Tulum with his understanding of culture and history. Moved at our desired pace and then to the next site. The cenote was amazing and he guided us through a unique safe experience. We ended with a wonderful Mayan lunch before heading back to resort. We truly felt cared for for the entire trip. Thanks Juan and absolute adventure!

We had an absolute blast on our tour including the cenotes. JJ was THE best tour guide and completely made the adventure. He was super knowledgable, fun, friendly and great at making sure we had amazing photos to remember our trip. Can’t recommend him and this group enough!!

Great guide to fully appreciate Tulum. Jose Manuel was a wealth of knowledge, and helped us better understand Mayan history. The cenote visit was wonderful.

My friend and I booked a private, half-day Tulum ruins and cenote tour with Absolute Adventure. The booking process was extremely easy, pre-departure communication was great, and it was a great value for a private tour. Daniele (tour guide) and Rodrigo (driver) were amazing – funny, knowledgeable, personable. We really enjoyed that we were able to go at our own pace throughout the day and LOVED that we got to experience the ruins and cenotes early before the crowds arrived. It felt like we had the place to ourselves. All in all, I will definitely be using Absolute Adventure for my next trip to the Riviera Maya.

Everything was great! Daniele and Rodrigo were exceptional. Gracias por todo!

Do not Hesitate to book with Absolute Adventure Mexico. Four of us (from the U.S.) travel yearly to the Riveria Maya and this was by far one of our best experiences ever! It was great to be able to customize our day, choosing to tour Tulum and snorkeling the ‘Pet Cemetary” cenote. We felt comfortable and safe the entire time.
Booking on line was easy, their pricing is reasonable, and I can not say enough good things about our driver Pascual and our tour guide Manual. It was just us and them, and we had an Absolute Blast! Both of them were very accommodating and seemed to genuinely enjoy what they do. Conversatiion was easy and interesting, and Manual is very knowledgeable on so many different topics. Not only was he able to answer any question we had, but also gave us much insight to their culture, past and present. Tulum and the cenote are breathtaking on their own, yet Pascual and Manual made our experience truly incredible! Also, I have to mention that at the end of our tour, we had the freshest, most delicious taditional meal I’ve ever had in Mexico. I whole heartedly recommend Absolute Adventure Mexico and look forward to being a repeat customer soon!

Great tour of Tulum and beautiful cenotes.
We had a tour of the Tulum ruins and two cenotes recently, and it was great. Our guide Daniel and driver Rodrigo were helpful and friendly, and did a great job showing us all the best spots. They also accommodated our group on very short notice. Would highly recommend.

We had a private tour of the Mayan Ruins near Tulum with Daniele and Pascual. Daniele was very knowledgeable and so much fun. We never would have learned any of the information by wandering around by ourselves. We went to an underground cenote afterwards and Daniele was very patient and made sure we had the experience that we wanted and our safety was never in question. Afterwards we had a spectacular lunch at a family restaurant in the jungle. Pascual did an excellent job as our driver navigating the roads. That day was truly the highlight of our trip to Mexico!

Just wanted to tell you how fantastic our tour was today. Jose was an incredible guide and really went above and beyond to show us such a great time. My wife and I had such an amazing time!!!
Emily –
1000/10 recommend! We got an early start and beat the crowds which was awesome. Chris was such a friendly, knowledgeable guide! He knew all the best spots to take pictures and went above and beyond by using the different iPhone features to make sure we have great photos/memories to look back on. Omar was awesome as well. We had an absolute blast!! We will definitely be booking our future tours here!
Kim S –
Tour was great…Daniel was awesome!! To finish at the Cenote was very cool and lunch in the jungle was excellent!!
Adam –
Extremely fun trip! Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly and driver was very safe! 10/10 recommendation. We will be back and using this same company!

We had an amazing trip to Tulum that included pick up, lunch and 2 cenotes. 100% recommend!
Haley –
The tour was AMAZING! We had a great time and both our driver Omar and our guide Daniele we’re super! Daniele was very informative and easy to talk to! Thanks a million!
Kevin –
We had a wonderful day with Chris. Loved visiting the ruins, 2 cenotes and lunch was delicious.
Stephanie –
Our private tour with JJ and Daniel was a blast. We had 18 people who wanted a “speed” tour of the ruins and then 2 cenote stops. We had a blast with them throughout the day and at all stops. Both JJ and Daniel were knowledgeable, fun and great tour guides. Booking the tour was easy and Claire was quick to make suggestions and respond to emails. We highly recommend Absolute Adventure.
Victor –
Perfect day trip! Our guide, Chris, was very knowledgeable and fun. Highly recommend!
Jessica –
Amazing and relaxing adventure with Claire today exploring Tulum and swimming in an underground cenote. Absolute Adventures is absolutely the way to go for personal tours around Playa del Carmen. Claire even provided wetsuits for us. There was time to pick up gifts at artisan shops and lunch was delicious. I hope to return one day for another tour with my kids!
Penny L –
This was great and definitely worth the money!!

did some research before deciding to book a private tour with Absolute Adventure, and this is the best decision we could have made! My boyfriend and I had our tour on October 22, 2019, and were picked up at our hotel in Cancun, at the recommended time of 6am. Ervin was our driver, and Hector was our tour guide. They were both so friendly and made the 2 hour drive to Tulum fly by quickly. The van was air conditioned and also had plenty of cold drinks to choose from. Hector is really knowledgeable about Mayan and Aztec culture, and educated us on the entire history on our drive over. He really made us feel as if we were close friends. When we got to Tulum, Hector took many amazing pictures of us, and knew exactly where we needed to stand to get the best shots. Hector was also very patient; we were not rushed at all and went at our own pace. After Tulum, we went snorkeling in the cenotes, followed by a lunch at a Mayan restaurant. I was not sure what to get, and ended up ordering a dish that Hector had recommended, which was absolutely delicious. Overall, this was the best excursion that we had ever gone on, and definitely recommend booking a private tour with Absolute Adventure. When we come back to Mexico, we will definitely be booking different tours with them!

Great Tulum Adventure
I would highly recommend this group for private tours of Tulum. We selected the half day tour of the Mayan Ruins and a Cenote to tour. Nothing disappointed as they provided extensive knowledge and entertainment at each venue. Our tour guide Hector was great for the Cenote and Claire was very knowledgeable about the history of the ruins. The tour was reasonable in price and included waters, beers and sodas and a Mayan jungle lunch, which provide the best fish tacos I’ve ever eaten. They even take a ton of photos for you and send them to you the next day. Absolutely love it and would do it again!

We started our trip at 630 am from our hotel, which I highly suggest! We were able to get to the Tulum ruins early and avoid the huge crowd that was lined up while we were leaving. We then visited 2 separate cenotes where our small group of 4 were the only ones there! They were absolutely breathtaking! My very favorite part of the whole week long trip to Mexico. It was a very laid back trip but we saw and learned so much. Our guide, Jose Manuel, was very knowledgeable and so much fun. And a big thanks to our driver, Rodrigo, for safely transporting us and watching our things so we could enjoy the day with lugging around a bunch of bags. The lunch at Juanita’s was fantastic and a great experience as well.

My fiance and I did a tour to Tulum and snorkled in a cenote. Juan was full of information and his passion for the Mayan culture showed. We had the best time and recommend Absolute Adventures 100%
Sir A –
Absolutely amazing!! We did a private tour for the two of us and was amazed at the level of communication before the trip as well as amazing service during our tour. We were able to leave super early to beat the rush of the other tourist and also literally had the cenote’s to ourselves (hello isnta worthy photos). Worth every penny and will always use when I am in the area! Highly recommended!!
Nick –
Absolute Adventure met all our expectations. Everyone was very friendly and knowledgeable, the whole experience was incredibly simple and fun.

Juan and Pascual were nothing short of amazing. Juan was entertaining and adjusted to the family like he was a member of our unique family group. When my granddaughter was a little apprehensive about the underwater cave he led her through it while we explored on our own. She is 7 and was not bored one bit with this tour. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone!
Maria –
The Tulum and cenote tour was definitely one of the best moment of our holidays in Mexico. We chose a private to avoid waiting for other guests and move at our own pace. Claire explained us everything about the Mayan ruins and history, and made sure we were having a good time snorkeling. I can’t recommend Absolute Adventure enough!
Justin –
Our guide was timely, knowledgable and passionate about his work. Although this tour starts quite early it is WELL worth it. They are treating guests to a unique experience to be away from the crowds. I highly recommend this tour.
Mark –
So happy we booked with Absolute Adventure and not some other of the hotel. This is a small business where they give great service and attention to detail to their guests. Excellent service and safety shown throughout the day. Lovely lunch in the jungle. Private tour makes it even more special.
Curtis –
This tour was absolutely amazing and my favorite while visiting Playa del carmen Our guide Juan was very informative. We were alone at the Cenyote. Loved this tour and would do it again! Water was beautiful and amazing. Tour van was air conditioned with drinks in the cooler! We got pics by email after the tour.

I recently traveled to Riviera Maya with my family of 4 as well as my brother’s family of 4. One of the highlights of our trip was our day spent touring Tulum and snorkeling in a cenote. We had children ranging from 6-13 and all had a wonderful day. Chris, our guide, was fun, knowledgeable, and always working to ensure everyone was enjoying themselves. Our lunch in the jungle was wonderful too!
Vic –
They made sure we had the best time! the guide that rowed us was amazing and super funny. He took care of us and also made sure we were safe in the cave. I can’t describe enough what an amazing time we had.
The tour starts early and there is a very legitimate reason! which is that we were able to visit the ruins before the crowds. The cenote was a unique experience, we were the only ones snorkeling! Well done
Andrea –
Athuro did an amazing job guiding us in Tulum and Tak Be Ha cenote! He was knowledgable and passionate about sharing his culture with us. Waking up early was 100% worth it. We got ruins and cenote for ourselves. We had such a great family moment, away from the crowds. Would definitly recommend this tour to families !
Morgan –
The outstanding professionalism started with the booking process. Clair and Chris were wonderful to work with and were willing to answer any question we had during the booking process. Our trip to Tulum was amazing, we were the first group to enter, which in itself was priceless. We were able to truly take the experience Tulum without being crowded by other tourist. The authentic Mexican meal that we had was outstanding. We were also very impressed how willing they both were to work with us the week of our vacation and accommodating our trip around the weather so that we got the most out of our trip.
Justin –
The Absolute Adventure team did a great job on the day. Our guide was very personable, the trip was well organized, everything went exactly as described and as we had planned. I am really happy that I selected Absolute to help us experience the Tulum area.
Brad –
Claire was an amazing guide for my wife and I on our vacation away from kids. Private tour of Tulum ruins was exquisite and a must experience to avoid the crowds and heat! Swimming in caves is an experience not to be missed, followed by an authentic local Mayan lunch. Would highly recommend Absolute Adventure to any friends, family or fellow travelers. We will book again with Absolute Adventure for the personalized experience and authentic tour.
David –
Visiting Tulum and a cenote with Absolute Adventure felt like being a special guest. Not only we had a guide, a driver, a van for ourselves but we also enjoyed Mayan ruins and cenote before everyone else. Excellent organization and service, safety was on point. We didn’t have to pay anything during our tour, the snorkeling gear, drinks and lunch were included. We had an amazing moment, glad we booked this tour with Absolute Adventure!
Trevis –
We recently took this tour and I have to say it was worth every penny. It is an early start (pick up 6:30am from our hotel in Puerto Morelos) but that was one of the reasons I booked this tour so that we could avoid the masses arriving at the beauty spots later in the day. They provide you with lunch and drinks all day. The guide and the driver were friendly and welcoming, our guide constantly offered to take photos of us which was nice.
Susie –
I was traveling with a 15 people group. We were picked up in 2 comfortable vans and drove to Tulum early which was amazing because there were literally about 20 people there total. I have been to Tulum before on an afternoon tour and it was so crowded that we could barely take pictures. Tulum was incredible and Chris gave our group so much knowledge and took tons of group pictures for us. Finally we headed to the cenote (all snorkel gear was included). Most of our group was having a great time but my son was panicking so Chris helped him. We went back to the hotel, we were all very exhausted and I cannot imagine renting a car. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a tour in the riviera maya area!
Vicky –
Great for all ages and good value. From the efficiency of the transfer and pleasant informative points offered by the guide even the drive to this activity is enjoyable.
