The 15 Best Chichen Itza & Cenote Tours

103 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.8 average  ·  from $26

Almost every version of this day pairs the pyramid with a swim, so the differences hide in the detail: what time the coach leaves, whether entrance fees are included, how long you actually get at the site and which cenote you end up in. These 15 are the ones worth the early alarm.

Review of the Cancun Chichen Itza, cenote, and Valladolid tour, with practical advice on cost, pickup, guides, shopping stops, and timing.

“These guys ( Eduardo, Cesar and Luis) are the only guys that you need to explore Chichen Itza, everything was great, from respecting the time of pickups and for every activity! How Cesar talks about Chichen Itza and the Mayans is worth more of all the documentaries that have ever been made about it! The informations they share during the 3 hours ride would make the bus trip so entertaining! Thank you guys for making this a wonderful experience! We'll come back for sure! Keep up!”

Review of Cancun’s ATV, zipline, cenote, and tequila tour, with honest tips on costs, safety, transport, gear, and value.

“This ATV, zip line, cenote, tequila tasting, and taco experience was absolutely incredible from start to finish! Every part of the tour was well-organized, fun, and memorable. Our guide Alan was freaking awesome — he has a great sense of humor and kept the energy high the entire time. He truly made the experience even better. The photographer was phenomenal, and the $75 photo package was worth every penny. The photos captured every moment perfectly, and I’m so glad we purchased them. Zip-lining was awesome, thrilling and scenic, and the ATV ride was so much fun. Just a heads up: they do not allow cell phones or bags/purses on the…”

If you can, ask for Jorge when you go. Our driver, Salvatore, was very good. There was not a single moment where I felt unsafe during the 1 hours there and back.”

Review of Cancun’s ATV, zipline, cenote swim, tequila tasting, tacos, transport, costs, timing, and practical tips before booking.

“Do NOT book with Viator or Cancun Extreme Adventuring. We were denied a refund despite arriving on time to the designated meeting point. The tour required us to meet at the Grand Wyndham, but hotel security refused entry because we were not guests. This is an important detail they do NOT warn you about in advance. We immediately contacted the tour organizers. The driver refused to pick us up outside the gate, even though we were clearly visible and attempted to flag them down. They simply drove away. Afterward, both Cancun Extreme Adventuring and Viator refused to issue a refund, hiding behind Viator’s “no refund” policy despite the situation being…”

Review of Playa del Carmen’s ATV, zipline, and cenote tour, with practical advice on transport, extra fees, activities, and value.

“I had an amazing first time experience on this adventure! The zipline was way more fun than I expected! The ATV's was pretty rough but I truly enjoyed it. The tequila tasting was very informational. The performances were amazing to watch and very entertaining. The cenote, was not for me. My top latch on the life jacket came off when I jumped in and I panicked. I recommend that you all check every one's life jacket for safety issues and defaults.”
