BEST Tour EVER!!! 4 Stars! - OMG....We did two tours with Absolute Adventure on two different days, and both days couldn't have been more perfect. We loved our tour guide, Joshua. We were picked up promptly at our hotel, driven in a lovely clean spacious van to our various stops, given water and anything else we needed along the way. They helped us select the 2 Cenotes we visited, and they were both beautiful-truly special. Our tour in Tulum was detailed, and Joshua was very knowledgeable on the history of Tulum and the Mayan culture. We snorkeled with Turtles and the guide they provided was also very sweet and lef us to baby and adult giant turtles. It was truly all incredible and we will def use them for our next trip.

Absolutely fantastic day! - We had an absolutely fantastic day with our tour guide Juan. It was one of our best days of the trip. Juan was very knowledgeable and was able to advise the best options for cenotes visit and snoring that suited us perfectly. Juan timed everything perfectly, giving us the perfect amount of time at each spot and never once feeling rushed. The tour is truly tailored to you. We opted for the enclosed cenotes, which was incredible experience and strongly recommend. We then saw lots of turtles snorkelling, with recommendation from Juan with the weather being a little temperamental that day. Huge thank you for giving us a fantastic trip, worth every penny and would definitely recommend.

Absolutely the Best Way to Explore Mexico - Tour Guide: Joshua Driver: Omar Tour: Tulum ruins, cenote, and Akumal Turtles Duration: 8HRs Party: 2x adults & 2x kids (5 & 7) Best way to explore Mexico. The absolute team arrived at hotel early ready for reception. I paid the remaining balance via VISA card (5% added fee - not bad). Easy communication with the absolute team via WhatsApp. Even had 2x kid booster seats for a van ride. Guided entry to all attractions. Bypassed multiple tourist bottlenecks. Tour guide remained with us the entire time expect when we snorkeled with turtles but as soon as we finished, Joshua was there. Driver dropped us off super close to attractions and secured our belongings in the van. Top notch way to do excursions in Mexico!!! Pay the premium price, well worth. Stress free trip! Guide handled it all and provided recommendations along the way.

Great day at Tulum, snorkeling and a cenote - We loved our day with Absolute Adventures! Juan was our tour guide, and he is the best! He was so knowledgeable and fun. He made sure everything went smoothly and knew how to avoid crowds and backups. He even knew all of the favorite photo spots and patiently took as many photos as we wanted. Be sure to take their advice to go to Tulum early - the line when we left was SO long, and it would have been miserable to have to wait that long. We originally booked the snorkeling with turtles trip, but we decided to switch to the reef snorkeling. The staff made it easy to make the change in advance. When we snorkeled, we didn't spend much time on the actual reef. We had expected to and hoped to see a lot of colorful fish. Instead the guide led us to an area with sting rays and sea turtles. It was very cool, but I'm just sharing so people know what to expect. The cenote was really neat! It was hard to choose which to go to, but we opted for Dos Ojos, and our kids enjoyed jumping off the cliff into the water. I'm glad we chose an outdoor cenote because the water was pretty chilly as it was. We probably would have been too cold to swim in a cave one for very long.

Family Fun!!! - This was such a fun tour. I would recommend it to anyone we had ages from six years old to 65 years old. We all loved it. Just want to thank Juan our tour guide. He did a great job. I was nervous about doing the cenote. I have a muscle disease in my legs and he was right there to help me and guide me through and get me in and out. Thanks for your encouragement and help Juan.

Fantastic tour!! - Extremely well organized with a knowledgeable, fun and friendly guide and driver. Juan took us to the Tulum ruins, dos ojos cenote and snorkeling in a lagoon with turtles. We had a delicious lunch and margaritas in the jungle near the cenotes. The communication with this tour company was extremely easy. This day was the best part of our vacation and I would 100% recommend this adventure group.
