My sister and I and our husbands drove to Aktun Chen today and really enjoyed our time there. Jaime was a wonderful host and guide through the amazing and beautiful cave tour. We learned about Mayan traditional names and cultures surrounding the cenotes and caves. They supplied us with helmets, much appreciated as parts of the cave tour requires ducking under the stalagmites and stalagtites. There was good lighting and Jaime assisted us in pictures! Back at the reception, there was a small museum/zoo area for rescued animals. We were able to view at our leisure and took pictures also.
We then drove to a cenote on the site to swim and snorkel. Cenaro was very helpful and toured us through the cenote, some parts open to above but mostly covered. Lots of light and some fish, mostly catfish and small grouper. The water is crystal clear! We were given life vests and/or belts and offered snorkeling gear but we had our own. There were lockers for your valuables included at both locations and change rooms.
After the cenote, we saw wild monkeys and deer on our way back to our car! Great visit! – via

In my opinion, the most beautiful cenote around. we definitely recommend taking a taxi for the visit, because it is located deep in the jungle. The entrance fee includes a life jacket and diving goggles. All things can be stored in safety lockers. Of course, the water is a little colder, but you can bear it 🙂 it’s worth it for the wonderful view. The water is crystal clear. You can swim through the whole cave and, as a surprise, there are large numbers of catfish living here! For myself, I would recommend a phone and a waterproof cover, there is not enough light for the Gopro. Really perfect place that I highly recommend! – via
