This was an incredible experience for me and what a better way to enter into the new Mayan era that begins in December 2012. The cleansing ceremony with the shaman, swimming in a georgeous cenote and a traditional Mayan feast were all just amazing and I really did feel renewed and ready for a new phase in my life. Don't...

The selection of tours that Mayan Ecotours has to offer is really extensive. From high end luxury outings to lower end very reasonably priced adventures, they truly do have something to offer every traveller. We only had three nights and two days to spend in Merida and Connie (owner of Mayan Ecotours) was excellent in developing a tour package that... More

We always wanted to visit cenotes that were a bit off the beaten path and away from the bulk of the tourist trade. Connie, at Mayan Ecotours took us to cenotes that we would never have found even if they were marked on maps! We swam and snorkeled in these cenotes and we are still talking about how much fun...

We took two tours with Ecotours: Chichen Itza & Uxmal. Transportation: very comfortable, clean & the driver was polite & attentive. In our first tour/day-trip, the guide (Memo) was knowledgeable, respectful & cheerful (seemed a bit disorganised at first, but all went well). Food included was OK. We chose the evening trip to Uxmal to stay for the lights &... More

We had a great experience using Mayan Ecotours for an excursion leaving from Progreso, Mexico (we were on a cruise and had about 6 hours onshore). From the beginning, Javier was very helpful, answering my many questions promptly by email and customizing the tour for our needs. My husband, preteen and teenage daughters, and I all really enjoyed our tour... More

Cenotes offer divers the opportunities to see the inland countryside prior to arriving at the dive sites. They are geological wonders. Although they are absent of sealife, there is certainly evidence that these inland cenotes were once connected to the ocean. The visability is staggering. In some locations, you find yourself diving through stalactites and stalamites, and in others, the... More

This tour with Mayan Ecotours was well organized, relaxed and very enjoyable. Our guides Monica and Irvin were knowledgable. friendly and always helpful. The two cenotes were magical and very different. Each special and unique. I particularly liked it that the cenotes were owned and managed by their communities. We were able to meet Mayan women artisans and watch them... More

Mayan Ecotours is second to none. We always had amazing service with very knowledgeable guides. We booked private tours and while they do cost more, it was worth every cent. The Rappel tour was so exciting that it left me tingling and Connie's Cenotes are truly the most beautiful I have ever seen. Also the food at the Haciendas was... More
