About this experience

Enjoy one beautiful cenote without packing your day with multiple stops. This private experience from Playa del Carmen gives you time to swim, explore, and appreciate the surroundings at a comfortable pace.

Before booking, we help you choose an open-air or cave cenote to suit your preferences. Your SECTUR-certified local guide also serves as your driver and accompanies you in the water, explaining the cenote’s natural features and offering assistance along the way.

Before or after your swim, enjoy tacos at a local spot, supporting a small business in our community. We also do our best to capture lovely photos and short videos for you to take home.

We’re Oscar and Judith, the family behind Tours Aldea. Expect personal attention, a clearly agreed itinerary, and time to enjoy the experience. Your transportation and guiding service are private; the cenote may have other visitors.
