Luz Maria is a wonderful guide through the cenotes, in addition to being very knowledgable about the plants and wildlife we observed on land on the drive there! I look forward to returning to the area to dive with her again. More

This dive tour was fun! We had a party of six people plus a baby and Maria accommodated us well! She was very knowledgeable regarding the coral reef, the species that live there, and history about Mexico. She picked us up on time and was very kind from the get-go. This guided tour was really nice because it felt personal... More

My husband and I absolutely loved and would recommend Luz to anyone going near Puerto Morelos for a tour of the cenotes. I'll admit I was wary of taking a local tour that got such great review...I thought for sure it was a scam...but in reality Luz and her husband are really excellent. We originally booked the "Try Scuba" excursion... More

We just got back from Mexico in March 24, 2012. My husband and I went with another couple to the reef just off Puerto Morelos. We had a wide range of experience among the four of us. Luz Ma was fantastic! She stopped along the way to show us many interesting types of coral and fish. She was very aware... More

This is by far the most amazing tour we have been on! Luz Ma was a great guide and went out of her way to make us feel comfortable and to give us extra knowledge. The sites we went to were completely amazing and would definately go back. Luz Ma also brings an underwater camera and takes tons of pictures... More

We had a blast snorkeling one afternoon! The boat crew were so amazing and cared so much about treating the ocean with care as well as making sure we were all comfortable and enjoyed ourselves. Just great people and a great experience! More

Luz Maria was an amazing guide. We were trying to find a tour that was a snorkel tour of some cenotes. We came across this online and decided to check it out. FYI: her "shoppe" is not a stand in town or anything. We found her address online, but it is actually out of her home that she works. SOoooo... More

We had a wonderful time visiting 4 cenotes with Luz Maria. She is a marine biologist and very knowledgeable about local history, plants, and of course the unusual cenotes. We bumped down many rocky roads in her very comfortable 4 wheel drive. Each cenote was unique and we were able to snorkel in them while she lit up the stalagmites... More

i went with Luz Maria on a tour of a three cenotes and went snorkeling in the large cenote. Luz is very informative and tell you a lot about the history and culture around the cenotes. Its quite different than snorkelling on the ocean reef and would recommend everyone to check it out. Luz's friendly nature and excellent english was... More
