This tour was amazing, and our guide Luis Castillo was very knowledgeable (it exceed my expectations). The outdoor activities were great, but the best part was the cultural component. I would recommend this tour to anyone who enjoys outdoor activities and who is passionate about cultures.

Our guide was Israel was so knowledgeable and made me feel at ease when I was a little worried for the rappelling. We had so much fun during this tour but also learned some history. 10 out of 10.

I loved this tour, because it has multiple parts. It has an action part with zip lining, rappeling, canoeing, swiming in a cenote, etc. Then it has an cultural part with visiting a Maya village and and Maya ceremony. Then visiting Coba, a big ancient Maya city. (Rent a bike there otherwise it's not doable) but you will love the view from the big pyramid! Yeah and then have a Mexican lunch. Very delicious. Only the price of the pics are expensive... all other is great!

Euri was fantastic! She was so energetic and really made the day for us. We started out by going to Coba (We walked instead of biking/limo and got to see the sights more). Climbing Coba was an unforgettable experience and great views! Then we went rappelling, ziplining, canoeing before ziplining back down to jump in a cenote. We finished off the day with a Mayan ritual and traditional Mayan lunch. Overall we had a great time and would do it again! Our only regret is that we didn't schedule another tour while we were in Mexico. Highly recommend Euri and Cancun Adventure!!

This tour was fantastic and the perfect combination of adventure, exploration, and education. I learned so much from Josue, who is knowledgeable, friendly, professional, and helpful. I felt very safe on the zip line and rappel. The cleansing ceremony was beautiful. The food was AMAZING! THANK YOU for a wonderful time :-)

Not enough time at Coba. By the time the tour guide let us go explore, there was only 90 minutes until we needed to be back at the bus. Not enough time to see the whole site. Would have liked even an extra 30-45 minutes there. Also, Coba was HOT! Would have been great to do the cenote swim after the pyramids to cool off. Very comfortable bus, fantastic driver/guide. Fun activities!

Jonathan ("JJ") was an excellent guide--knowledgeable about history and local culture, as well as experienced with the adventure activities, and enthusiastic as well. The small-group environment (only 9 on our tour) was great. The meal prepared by the Mayan ladies was delicious. The technical guys who helped us get into the rappelling and other gear seemed very confident and well-trained, and the equipment was in excellent condition. The highlight of the tour for me was swimming in the underground cenote, with the Mayan welcome and blessing that preceded it. I felt that the cenote must have been a holy place for the Mayans, and it was an honor to be allowed into it. We did a lot of activities but it did not feel rushed, the pace was perfect.
