I went on a 3 cenote dive tour where Carlos was my guide and divemaster. He was superb! He gave thorough briefings, making sure to explain what is different about cavern diving and knowing my level of experience. He brought all my gear down to all the denotes for me and back. He made a plan and we discussed substituting one denote for another, which we did because of the low visibility risk. He planned the dives hoping that we would be the only ones diving each cenote, and it worked perfectly. He explained what each cenote dive would involve, the difficulties, and the wonderful discoveries to see. He made sure all my dive gear was in good shape and explained the best way to maintain good buoyancy and how to kick without raising sediment.All of this worked perfectly and there were no issues until a prior dive group had raised a great deal of sediment causing a zero visibility situation for awhile in the last cenote.The tour was amazing! It wasn't cheap, but was fair for the level of expertise and care I received during my tour. His knowledge of cavern diving and the individual denotes was superb! I highly recommend this shop and this divemaster!

My wife and I recently spent a week in the Tulum area and did 7 cenote dives over 3 days with Koox. We can't speak highly enough of our experience, the dives were some of our favorites of all time. The staff at Koox was responsive and helpful while we were doing our initial booking.

We'd like to thank Romen and Martina, in particular. Romen is a wonderful divemaster who not only ensured we were prepared and informed for all of our dives, but was a blast to hang out with. His knowledge of the area and passion for the cenotes was impressive, we highly recommend requesting to dive with him, if possible! Martina was so helpful in getting everything booked, welcoming us, and being very attentive to dietary restrictions.

Thanks again to the whole Koox team, can't wait for our next trip down to Tulum - we definitely know who we will be diving with :)

the cenote visit was a big bday gift to husband. chose koox because matina in tulum shop was friendly and dive-passionate, plus koox has great reviews. snorkeled casa and did ojos, guided by roman—bright, articulate, careful, considerate and extremely professional. brought own mask and fins, appreciated wet suits and dive lights, getting there very early, and the time to hang in dos ojos, while roman shared quietly about the history of the region, etc. deeply peaceful including swooping swallows and fruit bats. two years ago i had suffered a traumatic injury, and in this cave respite, i finally felt totally healed (the deep peace of the cave allowed me to realize?) we’ve travelled quite extensively, and this makes the top list of ’so glad we did this.’ with koox. mil gracias!

Roman was a fantastic guide for my dives in El Pit and Carwash, really fantastic time and was very flexible when we had to switch the second dive location and sort out some issues with my own equipment.

Martina in the shop was so great for tips and generally super helpful. As a result of chatting to her I'm now off to Banco Chinchorro, which was never the plan 😂

10/10 would dive with the guys again for sure 👌👍🤙

Over the 2019 holiday break, our family traveled to Tulum Mexico for vacation. We all wanted to make sure we experienced a water adventure and booked a snorkeling trip through Koox Dive shop in Tulum. All of the reviews we had read were positive and we cannot say enough good things about our experience. Our dive master, Roman, was professional, safety conscience, and very personable and funny. We started the morning snorkeling the coral reef just offshore. One of our daughters had never snorkeled before and Roman took the time to make sure she was comfortable and safe. After an amazing experience in the ocean, we then went snorkeling in the Los Ojos Cenote where we got to experience cave diving. What an amazing adventure and we are so happy we chose Koox and got the opportunity to meet and spend the day with Roman. Two thumbs up.

My dives with Ko'ox were among the best in all my 25 years of diving. First, the ease of communication through the website made the arrangements very easy. And there were no restrictions regarding the number of divers. Most of my dives were solo with the guides. Guides were all delightful young experts who inspired confidence and displayed enthusiasm for their work. I wish to specifically thank Hakan, Eber, Julio, Mariel, Gerson, and Sylvia for doing an excellent job. Ko'ox has offices in Tulum, Cozumel, and Playa del Carmen. I did 10 dives, both ocean and cenotes, including one night dive in the Casa cenote. I highly recommend Ko'ox without any reservation.

5/5 doesn’t describe my recent experience with Koox diving. They get a straight 11/10!!!

From the moment I walked up to the shop to the moment I left the whole set up deserves 5*’s.

I had dived in the cenotes some 20 years ago and as a diver of 30 years I have experienced many diving operation around the world. This rates as one of the best.

They exceeded my expectations. The communication, detail to safety and going above and beyond was amazing.

The diving was unbelievable and both my partner and I (who doesn’t dive) had an amazing day. She thoroughly enjoyed the detail of information about the cenotes and the snorkelling.

This was VIP treatment from a diving operation that has it ‘spot on’! I will be back….

Thank you to everyone at Koox i interacted with on my day. I’ve recommended you to many others I have met diving since my experience 10 days ago. 👍

4 of the best dives I’ve ever done.
The equipment was excellent and the guides were friendly and made the whole experience amazing.
We booked a double dive and immediately after we surfaced from the second dive we booked in for 2 more.

We recently completed our advanced open water qualification with Ko’ox adventure, where we were fortunate enough to do 3 cenotes dives and 2 reef dives. Our instructor, Victor, was great and ensured that we had a lot of fun whilst also focusing on safety. It was such a fun and exciting experience to dive in the beautiful cenotes, we would absolutely recommend ko’ox to anyone thinking of doing some diving when visiting Tulum, you won’t regret it!

I cannot recommend this place highly enough. It is truly exceptional. My daughter and I did multiple dives over the 9 days when we were in Tulum. She did her Open Water and Advanced Open Water certification with Koox and I did my Advanced Open Water with them. The instructors were fantastic. Victor worked with my daughter on all 13 of the dives she did in that time and I worked with both Victor and Juan Carlos. They were superb!

Our dives were a mix of coastal reef dives off Tulum, reef/drift dives off Cozumel and multiple cenote dives. I did Angelita, Car Wash and Nicte Ha with Juan Carlos and my daughter and I did Casa Cenote along with El Pit and both the Barbie and Bat lines of Dos Ojos. If I had to pick a favorite, it would be Nicte Ha though each one has its unique characteristics. It is hard not to be awestruck by the eeriness and mystery of Angelita (there is nothing like it I know of on the planet) and it is also hard not to be blown away by the celestial light of El Pit (yes, it really does look like it does in the picture--if anything, it is more majestic). All of them are worth doing and the main thing I got out of doing each of them is the desire to do them again and dive more cenotes.

We finished our trip up with a Whale Shark adventure on the day we needed as a break before flying. This was magical. These creatures are so massive yet so gentle and graceful. To swim with them was a dazzling experience. Koox set this trip up for us and made it easy.

We stayed about two blocks away from Koox right near the center of town. We did not need a car. Cabs can take you to the ruins where you can swim/snorkel with rays and green turtles (highly recommended). There are plenty of restaurants and cafes all within a few blocks of the main strip. Everything was extremely convenient. The people at Koox were wonderful to us and made our entire trip seamless and simple. I look forward to going back to Tulum and doing another course with Koox Diving. Thanks Victor and Juan Carlos!
