Overview of your Merida tour

Our journey begins in the town of San Antonio Mulix, where we'll swim in two different cenotes: Xbatún and Dzombakal. These open, shallow cenotes with crystal-clear waters are perfect for swimming or snorkeling. With depths ranging from 1 to 4 meters, they offer us a safe, sunny and refreshing natural pools. Next, we'll travel to Cenote Kankirixché, an spectacular semi-open cavern admired by impressive stalactites. With a depth of 10 meters and exceptional clarity, it's an ideal place for an snorkeling experience. Our final stop is in the town of Mucuyché, at Yaal Utzil, an open cenote with turquoise waters. Observe through this 19-meter-deep cenote, and you'll discover you're surrounded by impressive limestone formations and tropical natural beauty. We conclude our adventure at El Rinconcito del Sabor with a traditional Yucatecan lunch. It's the perfect opportunity to savor the authentic local flavors that define Yucatecan cuisine.
