Our tour guide Felipe was AWESOME! Felipe went in depth about the cultural aspects of cenotes and the mayan culture. Even explaining the ecosystem of rio secreto in an interesting manner. Activities were fun and a moderately strenuous for beginners, but staff were very courteous and made sure everyone was comfortable. I recommend for everyone to re-apply bug spray after the water snorkeling for the bike ride back. Mosquitos did chew us up! The linch was also very delicious and filled us up. I recommend this tour to everyone!

Welcome to the jungle. Be wary of the bats and bikes.
William_A, Mar 2024
Our guide, Memo, was awesome. The tour itself was intense and awesome - the sights were incredible and Memo is a diver, so he had additional insights in the underground river. This place is like nowhere else I or my family had ever been, and we've been to a lot of places around the world (Hawaii, Colorado, Iceland). For that alone, it's worth going. Food - breakfast and lunch - were excellent as was the service. The people genuinely seemed to like working there and they took good care of us. Some feedback: The bikes are lousy. We had bad shifting and chains on the bikes. We peddled through some challenging terrain in the jungle and in caves, going up and downhill, over rocks and roots, and several other kinds of areas. You need a good bike and bike maintenance was really poor. That said, our guide traded me out his bike (which was slightly better) and took my bike, which was terrible. Also, if you have friends or relatives with you who are skittish, be sure they know: bats, scorpions, spiders, and the notion of jaguars, pumas, and cougars could get them a little riled up. Forewarn them so they can opt out of this one if they'd like. Same with fitness: if you're along with people who aren't fit or accustomed to riding bikes on tough terrain, they might want to pass. That said, they'd be missing out on an incredible sensory experience. Also, be aware: it's 90 minutes to the site from the southern point of the Hotel Zone. Be patient with the ride and it'll pay off in what you see and experience.
Amazing experience!

The whole experience was incredible. Our guides/photographer were so kind and helpful. We were impressed with everything. Even the food was good. Definitely worth the time and money and we're so glad we decided to do it!
Best cave experience of my life
Anne_B, Dec 2023
The wild tour was amazing, especially the swim cave portion, and our guide Miguel was incredible with his knowledge , joy of sharing his culture & mindful of safety
Excellent adventure
Prasanna_E, Mar 2023
Amazing adventure tour involves biking in cave and jungle followed by cave exploration, swimming. Well organized. Our tour guide Imelda was amazing and so was our photographer Perseo.
Adventurous!
Rachel_H, Nov 2022
Was an absolutely wonderful adventurous experience. Wish I would have been allowed to have my phone with me for personal pictures, I would have still bought some professional ones from the guide… also, the bikes need to be mountain bikes instead of regular older ones… makes it harder to enjoy all the amazing biking activity!
Great cave adventure.
Linda_K, Aug 2022
This was one of the best tour experiences I ever had and, in my 69 years, I have taken a great many tours in many countries. It is definitely a tour for people who are ready to bike and hike over some uneven ground and through caves. That being said, the guide we had was very accommodating to my slower pace. The cave was beautiful but what made the trip memorable was our guide, Daniel. He was very knowledgeable about botany, caves and underground rivers. You could tell he was passionate about his job and that made all the difference. (Maybe, calling me "wonder woman" the whole trip helped a little. It did help motivate me on that bike ride.) You bike about 7 kms. Then hike through caves which is not too rough but I did fashion myself a walking stick because some of the terrain is a bit uneven. You are provided with helmets and water shoes and a wet suit for the underground swimming. Keep in mind that that you will bike and hike the exact reverse of what you biked and hiked in when you leave. (almost sorry we did not know that until we were done). I would say this tour is best for adults with some level of fitness. Again it is all about the guide and we had the best!!!!
A must do tour in Mexico
Christoffer_C, Aug 2022
We did not have a lot of expectations on this tour but it was all so well planned and executed from our guides ”Mogli” and Yolanda. The other participants did not show up on the tour so me and my friend got a private tour. Expect this to be quite tough- especially the cycling was very hard in the heat. But the cycling is also quite short. Once in the cave, the guides were so passionate about the wildlife and gave us the best experience. This was one of the highlights on our entire trip around Mexico. As long as you are up for a challenge, this tour is a must! We also bought the photo package. It is quite pricy but it is impossible to get as good pictures on your own and also very nice to not need to bother with cameras, and instead simply enjoy!
Great experience !!!
quentin_h, Aug 2022
Where do I begin ? This was truly a once in a lifetime experience !!! If you ever want to feel like your on a “survivor” scene this is it. Do not do this excursion if your not physically fit, into hiking, and being in the wilderness. It is not for the weak. Now with that being said Donnie our main instructor was wonderful. He was very informative and super nice. We also had a nice picture man Oscar who walked with my wife and I for a large duration of the day because the bike ride is pretty dangerous and she didn’t feel comfortable riding the bikes and swimming in the cave. Set aside that it was amazing a once in a lifetime experience that I’m glad we did. Would I ever do it again (probably not) because this isn’t really our cup of tea but between the host and the amazing private group we was with everything was perfect. It’s definitely worth a shot !!!
Awesome Experience
Jonathan_C, Jul 2022
Highly recommend. One of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. Be sure you are in shape, the trek is strenuous.
Amazing activity
Ritchie_B, Apr 2022
This was an amazing excursion. It is physically exerting as you will be biking, hiking and swimming. It is a blast and we’ll worth the effort and price. From an an amazing tour guide to good food and transportation, I would definitely recommend this trip.
Incredible cave swimming
Marcus_R, May 2021
Bike ride through the jungle and swimming in the caves was incredible! The tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly!
An amazing experience
Tonya_S, Apr 2021
After a bumpy start of us being forgotten for pickup, the tour itself was amazing. Our guide was Ari and he was amazing. He did a fantastic job explaining all of the history and keeping us all on track. Jose was our photographer and he provided us some amazing shots of our family of 6. We got close to 150 pictures so the photo package was absolutely worth it. This experience is an absolute must. You will not regret it. The only thing that would have made it better if I had to give an improvement would be to take some photos in the dry cave as well. There was some amazing formations in there. Thanks for an awesome time.

Experiencia increíble
Ana_F, Apr 2019
Hicimos la ruta secreta en río secreto, primero una ruta en bici por dentro de la Caverna hasta llegar al cenote caverna, dentro de la cueva hay muchísimas estalagmitas y estalactitas , pertenece el sistema de río subterráneo que hay en la Riviera Maya. Nuestra guía Anna fue fantástica, te explica todo con detalle y es muy simpática, nuestra fotógrafa profesional Ana también muy agradable pendiente de hacernos fotos fantásticas en todo el recorrido. Merece mucha la pena.
