Tulum Ruins & Cenotes: Sacred Jungle Swim & Discovery

Mexico Kan Tours is one of our favorite tour operators, not just in Mexico but in all of our travels! We booked three separate tours with Mexico Kan Tours across multiple days, each with different tour guides and drivers, so we have ample experience with them and can vouch for the consistency and reliability of their service. Their tour guides were knowledgable about the local history, culture, and nature. All of our tour guides were passionate and enthusiastic and enjoyed their jobs. They showed a respect and reverence for the ecosystem and community that they lived in. They follow all the local rules and regulations (no plastic bottles, no contaminents, etc). Their drivers were safe and extremely polite, always opening doors for us and helping with errands. Mexico Kan Tours' itineraries are high quality and they only go to the best sites. They avoid crowded and touristy areas and took us to some real hidden gems. They seem to be very selective in the places they visit and the partners they work with. They even knew where to get authentic and high quality local souvenirs. Their lunch options were excellent. We are very selective eaters who prefer non-tourist spots that locals eat at. Frankly, we have unreasonably high standards for foods which tour operators rarely meet, so we were impressed that all three of the lunches we had with Mexico Kan Tours were great. They are well equipped, adaptive, prepared for anything. They have all the necessary gear and safety equipment for all activities. Their water gear (snorkels, masks) is new and from Cressi, a reputable brand. They provide reusable aluminum water bottles, bananas, and these excellent seed granola bars made by a local baker (they were so good multiple people asked for the recipe). Their vans and vehicles are newer models and quite comfortable. When making plans with Mexico Kan Tours, they are flexible and responsive. We booked some things on very short notice, including some custom private tours and extensions. Their office staff always responded the same day that we reached out. On one occasion, we contacted them at around 4PM about adding an extension for the next day, and they were able to accomodate us. We were informed of the exact pickup times the night before and they arrived promptly at those times. The tours ended at the specified time. Their prices were reasonable and competitive for the area. We felt it was a great value for the quality of service we received. We booked these tours with them, staying in Tulum town in early November 2025: - Cenote Adventure (with Macarena): Our favorite part of the trip! Macarena's excitement and love for the water made this an amazing experience. - Private tour of Chichen Itz (with Alfonso): Alfonso's deep knowledge of Mexican history and culture made the drive fly by! - Tulum Ruins and 3 Cenotes Jungle Adventure + private reef snorkeling (with Miguel): Miguel's kind nature and expertise made the day great - and we got to meet a nurse shark face to face!

This was one of our favorite tours. We got to see the ruins, zipline, canoe, and swim in incredibly beautiful cenotes. Aurelio and Paloma were such a great team, and they made the tour very fun and special. Paloma had so much knowledge about everything we did, and she was very kind and fun. The lunch at the end is also delicious! We can't recommend this tour highly enough. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Shout out to Paloma! She was such an incredible and knowledgeable guide! Thank you for such a relaxed day in the cenotes and a wonderful morning at the Mayan ruins

The tour was brilliant. First getting to the archeological site early, before the crowds was a massive plus point, it meant we got some fantastic photos opportunities. The cenotes themselves were excellent, especially the third one. The food provided was brilliant, with strong and vibrant flavours. The food is available at exactly the time we started getting hungry.

Carlos made the tour so enjoyable. He was very knowledgeable, witty, and attentive. I will definitely use this service again.

Just amazing. Carlos was so informative and explained everything! The water was beautiful and the food was top tier! I felt it was intimate and we got to the ruins early so it wasn't too packed

We had a truly wonderful tour with our amazing guide Paloma – she was incredibly knowledgeable, warm, and led us through the day with great enthusiasm and insight. The tour was both informative and varied, and we learned a lot. The organization was excellent: we were picked up on time in the morning, the transport was comfortable, the snacks along the way were well planned, and thanks to the early start, there were very few other tourists – definitely a big plus! Many thanks to our very good driver Artoro! For lunch, we enjoyed delicious traditional Mexican food, a typical dessert, and locally brewed coffee – a real highlight! What impressed us most was the organization’s commitment to actively supporting local communities. We would absolutely recommend this tour!

This was one of the best investments of our trip. The location and guide made for a high quality tour. It was very comfortable and exciting for our children who are 4 and 7. Small and meaningful details, like homemade, kid friendly snacks and reusable water bottles were classy. We wish we had made time for a second tour with MexicoKanTours.

We had a great time on our cenote tour with Iver! He was the best guide, funny, knowledgeable and kind! Thank you for a great day!

We had a perfect moment starting with visiting the Maya’s ruines so we feeld our brain then enjoying a super fun adventure experience in a gorgeous place into the cenotes! Thank to Alondra for the great vibes and knowledge of the day (and all the pictures) !
