BEFORE YOU BOOK
Swim with Turtles Private Tours: your questions
Need help choosing an itinerary for your group? Talk to our team.
Do all these tours visit Akumal?
Yes. The turtle itineraries listed here visit Akumal Bay. Their other stops and options differ.
Can I choose a tour without a cenote?
Yes. Tulum and Turtles combines the ruins and Akumal without a cenote stop. Check that tour's options and inclusions.
Are turtle sightings guaranteed?
No, turtle sightings cannot be guaranteed because they are wild animals. However, turtles are seen on almost every tour, so it is very unlikely that you will not encounter one. The number of turtles, water visibility and the quality of the encounter may vary.
