We had a great tour of Tulum, snorkeling in the nearby lagoon (turtles, sting rays, & eagle rays), and exploration of a private cenote. Alex took extra care to help us understand how the Maya placed nature at the center of their lives, livelihood, and well being. Each location was gorgeous, safe, and unique. Active without being strenuous and accessible. A true highlight of our trip! Complete with pick up and drop off from our hotel in the safe hands of the driver Ismael. Ibrahim took amazing photos (even underwater) so we could all stay in the moment. Definitely recommend.

We had a great time! Everyone was pleasant and helpful. Our guide, Vanessa, was the best. She took time to explain what we would see and experience. She assisted those who had limitations and concerns, so that they also had a great time. We saw several turtles and fish while snorkeling, the cenote' was fantastic. Like you were in another world. I truly consider this the best excursion I have ever experienced and that's saying a lot.

We had an amazing time touring the ruins in Tulum, snorkeling with green sea turtles in akumal and exploring the beautiful cave cenote! Our guide Claudia was very informative but also so fun and made it a great experience for us. Dany did a great job on the photos and I’m so happy we have them to look back on memories of the day! It was a great way to spend our 1 year wedding anniversary and I would definitely recommend the excursion to anyone visiting Mexico!
