Amazing Experience like a local!!
John_P, Mar 2024
Amazing experience, one of my favorite times!! Paco was our guide and he was great! This is a totally no-frills experience with a true local flavor. Paco is super knowledgeable and we got to see so many amazing things. Will definitely donut again when we come back!!
Very well taken care of, start to finish.
Dana_F, Feb 2024
Due to time of year, I had the good fortune of being the only person on the tour. This outfit is not fancy but they took care of me start to finish, including pick up and drop off. The scuba instruction was very deliberate and very good -- loved the enthusiasm -- even across my language barrier. Very patient with me in the water, too. (No language barrier there.) They even made a change to the tour just for me (easy with a group of one ... but still they were under no obligation to do so).
paco coolest guy in tulum
Jennifer_D, Feb 2024
this was a memorable experience. from the beginning to the end we were a little nervous since we had not diving experience but Paco took great care of us. it did not take too long from the time we arrived to the time we were on the way to the cenote (15 min top), once we arrived to the cenote we tested the water and had a little run through the map. Paco instructed us on all the signals, the equipment and any risky situations that we could face. unfortunately my partner got very nervous once we got in the water and decided not to do the dive, instead she followed us snorkeling. on the second dive I had to stop the dive. the day of my flight to tulum I had a horrible inflammation of my ears while landing and never went away, this made the dive very painful since as you go down in the dive you have to release pressure through you ears but I could not to this since the ear inflammation I had. I went through it the first dive even tho it was very painful but I really wanted to experience this. overall we couldn't really do the dive how its meant to but we had a lot of fun and a great experience and it was all thanks to our instructor Paco, what an amazing guy really the best part of my whole trip to tulum was meeting Paco, he even invited me to his house and go fishing with him. he was the whole tulum experienced coolest guy out there I 100% recommend the experience with this guy. we also saw a crocodile during the dive which was awesome. so if you thinking of doing this don't think twice and go out there and have an amazing time
Amazing experience with the best crew!
David_K, Feb 2024
Amazing experience with the best guides!! Knowledgeable and masters of diving!! Made us feel right at home and took us to some of the most beautiful scenery I've ever seen!! 10/10 would recommend over and over!
Fun and varied diving experience
Robert_P, Jan 2024
This was a fun trip. Paco was a great dive guide. He took care to make sure we were safe and understood the local rules, and was very attentive throughout the dives. The cenote dive was a new experience for me and well worthwhile. The resident crocodile also a new one on me.... Paco pointed out everything of interest along the way, much of which I would have missed without his excellent local experience.
Awesome Experience!
Dan_T, Jan 2024
Pako was a great guide. He brought extra equipment just in case we needed. And he gave a great refresher on our skills which we needed. Underwater, the experience was terrific. We did two cenote dives, one with cave exploring.
Scuba Diving in Tulum
Maria_P, Dec 2023
My fiancé and I booked this dive as we were interested in getting our certification. I thought this was a great first dive to “test the waters first” before committing. It’s was a really cool experience to be able to dive in the cenote and then the open water to see the reefs. Paco and Carlos were great and personable. We had another couple in our group plus the instructor which made it 5 people. A nice small size. The disadvantage was that we were all at different levels so we did spend a lot of time trouble shooting in the cenote entrance, not being able to see the cenote or the crocodile!! Meeting point was in Tulum, which was great for us as it was close to where we were staying. We had brought some of our own gear (mask, wetsuit and fin) but my mask and fin weren’t the best for these conditions. They do provide all of the gear, we brought what we had from home as we already had them and are comfortable with them. Remember to bring your own towel, and some water. I brought a water proof case (the kind with the lanyard style, and soft plastic cell phone cover) but the waters weren’t clear enough to take underwater photos. We went in December 2023. Paco’s a great instructor and taught us step by step with what to do and once we were in the water, he made sure everyone was comfortable before moving forward.
Great dive, but not accurate, worn gear. Better alternatives.
HADRIAN_K, Oct 2023
Beautiful dives in Tulum, but quality issues and inaccuracy in the listing. We did 2 dives at Dos Ojos Cenotes (reef was closed). Gear was heavily used. No Mayan lunch or fruit or snacks were served (thin sandwiches with breaded chicken and water), tanks were not ready, started/ended late. The guides were nice, and provided transportation. For the price there are better options.
Response from Host, Nov 2023
When we dive we need to be patient, the activity is an adventure, the time it takes depends on many factors. such as changing an o ring to the tank, the boat arrived 20 minutes late or in your real case, stay a long time in the bat cave enjoying the beautiful stalactites. and then get angry because you have an appointment at the spa at 2 pm then if you do an activity like diving and you with more than 200 dives should know, dedicate that day only to diving when you return to your hotel call the masseuse, it's a piece of advice mine as a diver and that was your great anger that your masseuse did not wait for you but that is beyond my control, it is totally up to you, your itinerary of activities It's great that you really liked the cenote diving.
A blast!
Nathan_D, Jun 2023
This was the best decision I made. The process was safe, easy, and I had a blast while in Tulum. We arrived at the meeting spot and were taken care of for the entire day. With historical commentary, scuba lessons, lunch, and a boat ride this was just amazing

Exhilarating
Anonymous, Mar 2023
Carlos was knowledgeable, accommodating and caring.. felt safe with him, even though the ocean was choppy helped to calm my nerves and knew were the fish were hiding.. even saw a lobster up close!! Heck of a strong worker with the tanks and equipment.. highly recommend his/this tour adventure :)
Highly recommend
Ian_F, Feb 2023
Amazing trip! Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Water was too rough for the reef but we did 2 dives in the cenote, including going through caves with flashlights. Highly recommend!

Simon_P, Jan 2023
Yesterday we dive with Carlos in the “Casa” and cause of the closed reef, in the “Aktun Ha” Cenote. It was a great experience to dive in this crystal clear water and it was our first time we dive in a Cave! One of our greatest impressions was that we seen a Crocodile! Carlos did a great Job and we had a lot of fun!
Carlos loves to Scuba and so do we!
AndrewLeighton, Jan 2023
Carlos was awesome for two first time divers! Please do this he makes sure you are comfortable in both environments. This is a great way to see a reef, a cenote, and learn to scuba in one day!
Well worth it!
Lauren_G, Jan 2023
We loved our experience! Despite running into a few motor issues at the beginning, Tulum Area Experience came and picked us up from our apartment, gave us a lesson on basic SCUBA. We then headed out to the cenote and reef (which are right next to search other). We did the reef dive first then the cenote. The cenote was amazing and definitely worth it. We went in and out to caverns and under the mangroves. Was ver cool. A delicious lunch (Mayan sandwiches) was also provided with snacks (bananas) and water. It was effectively a private dive as it was only me and my partner. Would definitely dive with them again!
Great experience, great diving
David_H, Jan 2023
Carlos and his crew were very experienced and gave us an excellent experience diving the dos Ojos cenote. If I’m ever in Tulum again, I would dive with Carlos and his crew.
