Overview of your Merida tour:

Take in the mystical beauty of a Yucatán cenote on this exclusive candlelit tour, perfect for anyone seeking a serene and enchanting experience. Departing from Mérida, we'll travel to the tranquil outskirts of a nearby town, where the cenote will come alive under the soft glow of dozens of candles. As your private guide with expertise in environmental science, I will delve into the fascinating geology and rich history of these natural wonders with you. This tour is ideal for nature lovers, cultural enthusiasts, and those looking for a magical escape. It's a captivating evening under the stars and candlelight, creating memories that will last a lifetime. Join me exploring one of Yucatán's hidden treasures in an environment unmatched anywhere else. Nestled within this community are the cenote's caretakers, local Maya families whose ancestors have protected these sacred waters for generations. They'll enrich our experience by sharing handmade snacks, offering a taste of their rich cultural heritage.
