We went to 3 cenotes, each with a distinct formation, and each swimmable. The cenotes were beautiful and swimming there was a serene experience. After the cenotes, a good lunch. It was a very enjoyable day.
My family and I all had a very special experience on this tour. The cenotes are a wonder, and a delight for the senses. The horse-cart ride was so fun, too! My greatest memory of all is of seeing the small towns on the way, which are a world apart and truly enlightening.
The keynotes were very nice, however, it isn't what is advertised or listed here. We only visited three cenotes and they weren't the ones listed here. We had to wait for longer than wanted in the hotel because they were running late. We also didn't see any Mayan village along the way. They picked us up and took us to a place called Santa Barbara, Cenotes and Restaurant. There we took a carriage pulled by horses where the 1st cenote is, after that you are on your own the tour guide waited at the lobby/restaurant. To get to the other two cenotes, you walk an ok walking distance. Again, the cenotes they had were beautiful it just wasn't what we expected or what is advertised in here.
We had a great time! The tour group was small and bilingual. The largest cenote was the best. Bring water shoes and bug spray for best comfort.
