Few guides are authorised to enter, so the atmosphere stays calm and authentic; far from the crowded cenotes of the Riviera Maya. You will begin at the sacred Jaguar Cenote, then swim, float and explore four more cenotes at an easy pace, from a small cenote lit by a single opening in the rock to the spectacular Roots Cenote, with hanging roots, a jumping platform and stalactites. The day ends with a well-deserved lunch back in Playa del Carmen. Key Details • Duration: 5 hours (approx.) • Start time: 11:00 AM • Meeting point: Lara & Luca Restaurant, Playa del Carmen • Group size: small groups, max 13 people • Languages: English and Spanish (Italian on request) ⭐ Why Choose Us You join a genuinely all-inclusive day: transport from Playa del Carmen, cenote and safety equipment, entrance fees and lunch are already covered, so you are not juggling add-ons at the jungle gate. We keep groups small and use access into a protected sanctuary that most day tours never reach, which means calmer water and room to swim instead of queuing at crowded public cenotes. Professional local guides lead every step; federally certified guides join whenever an archaeological site is part of the route. We ask you to skip sunscreen in the water, stick to eco-friendly repellent and support nearby communities through how we operate. Before you travel and after you get home, we stay in touch on WhatsApp so meeting details, what to bring and any questions never feel left hanging. ### Essential information • Sunscreen is not needed and not allowed in the cenotes; the trails and cenotes are mostly shaded, and chemicals damage this fragile ecosystem. • Only eco-friendly insect repellent is permitted. • Minimum 2 people per booking; maximum 13 people per group. • Cenotes can be enjoyed even on rainy days. ### What’s included • Transport from Lara & Luca (Playa del Carmen) to the cenotes and back • Expert local guide • Entrance to five hidden cenotes in a protected jungle sanctuary • Life jackets and goggles • Bottled water • Lunch at an international restaurant: 3 courses with a drink (Mon–Fri) or main course with a drink (weekends and public holidays) • All fees and taxes ### What’s not included • Hotel pick-up and drop-off (available for an extra cost) • Mask and snorkel (available to rent on site) • Water shoes and eco-friendly insect repellent (available to buy on site) • Tips • Personal travel insurance ### Kit list • Swimsuit and towel • Comfortable shoes for walking on natural trails • Dry clothes to change into after swimming • Optional: rash guard or wetsuit for extra comfort in the cool cenote water • Optional: cash for tips, water shoes or eco-friendly repellent ## FAQs ### Do I need prior swimming experience? No prior swimming experience is required to enjoy this activity. Life jackets are provided for safety in all cenotes, and guides are present to assist if needed. Swimming is at a relaxed pace suitable for beginners and families. The depth of each cenote varies, but even non-swimmers can enjoy the water and take part in the experience with confidence. The pace of the day allows for plenty of breaks to ensure everyone feels comfortable. ### How private are the cenotes? All five cenotes are inside a protected jungle property where only a few guides are authorised to enter, so it is far quieter than the popular public cenotes. You may occasionally share a cenote with another small group; our guides time the visit so you can enjoy each cenote as calmly as possible. ### Is the activity suitable for children? Yes, this experience is family-friendly. Children of all ages can participate, and life jackets are provided to help with buoyancy. Parents should supervise their children during swimming portions for safety. The moderate difficulty and short walking distances make the day manageable for kids, and the meal at the end is suitable for younger participants as well. ### What should I bring with me? Bring a swimsuit, towel, extra clothes, and comfortable shoes suitable for walking in natural terrain. Eco-friendly insect repellent is recommended, and a rash guard can provide extra coverage in cooler water. Cameras or action cameras are welcome, but should be secured for water use. All other essentials, including water and meal, are provided. ### Are food and drinks included? Yes. Bottled water is provided during the tour, and lunch is served at the end in Playa del Carmen: a 3-course meal with a drink (water, soda or beer) Monday to Friday, or a main course with a drink on weekends and public holidays. Vegetarian options are available. ### How physically demanding is the day? The activity is considered moderate in difficulty. Swimming is optional in all cenotes, and walking distances are short. Life jackets help participants feel safe in the water. The itinerary is flexible, allowing for rest breaks and photo stops. Most guests find the pace manageable and enjoyable without feeling rushed. ### Can I take photos or videos? Yes, you are encouraged to take photos or videos throughout the tour. The private setting and clear waters offer excellent opportunities to capture your experience. Guides can advise on the best angles or times for pictures while ensuring safety and respect for the natural environment. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/cenote-chica-portada-1-1.jpeg - **Gallery image count**: 16 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
