What to expect
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Cenote Chaak Tun, Avenida Benito Juarez, s/n Ejido., Playa del Carmen 77723 Mexico
Discover the mysterious Cenote underworld with our bi-lingual guides Bohish, who is one of the region’s most famous Cenote explorers and wildlife conservationists. He will safely guide you through a labyrinth of wondrous caves and rivers, while passionately sharing his knowledge about the geological phenomenon that took place millions of years ago.
In the interior of the Cenotes, millions of fossilized corals and marine animals have been found, such as prehistoric sharks, whales and even elephants and other prehistoric mammals more than 10, 000 years old. The animals that are the easiest to admire without specialized equipment are those who have shells, because when they die, they tend to accumulate and degrade until compacted densely, forming what is known as a calcareous rock.
Hiking through the caverns and caves you may discover various fossils and ancient Mayan artifacts while Pako wistfully explains about their origin, and purpose, making its history come alive in your imagination.

Thank you for an unforgettable adventure, exploring the underworld of the Mayan peninsula. Pako was such a sweet person, explaining the history and geography of the cave systems while at the same time guiding us safely though the cool rivers from chamber to chamber. What we loved most was that we were all to ourselves without the mass tourism that is so prevalent in Playa del Carmen. We look forward to book this tour again and explore the many other caves.Great tour start to finish. We enjoyed the privacy of this tour, away from the whole Covid scare. We had our private guide, private Cenote and private caves... Will keep recommending this great experience

We have been coming to Playa del Carmen for several years and we have undertaken almost all the tours you can book, including all the popular Cenotes. Until one of our local friends referred us to this title gem. This tour will take you off the beaten path into the Maya underworld. Our guide Pako was awesome and he led us through the caves through pools and into caverns. If you want to have a hands on experience with your private guide showing you the places that most other tourists will never get to see, then do yourself a favor and book this tour.La experiencia en el interior de Sac Pool (el nombre del cenote) fue inolvidable. Fue una increíble aventura que sin lugar a dudas lo repetiré muy pronto. Además, el guía fue muy amable, se nota que disfruta de cada recorrido.
