Booked this trip as an excursion from Cancun. It was an excellent day trip. Picked up at hotel right on time. Be advised-the vans are small and there’s not. Lot of leg room. Ariel was a fantastic guide-personable and knowledgeable. We did tulum first and Rio secreto second, which was ideal. Life jackets, helmets, wet suits, water shoes, and towels are all provided. Loved it!

Diana is great! The Wise travel is not reliable!

Sinchana_P, Feb 2025

The experience itself was great and Diana aka Wonder woman was amazing and took time to explain stuff and took really good care of us! My complaint is with Wise travel. After completing booking and getting confirmation they changed fee/tax from $4 USD to $15 USD per person when asked gave some lame excuses, when reached their for experience they mentioned it is $20 USD per person. This made me question their integrity.

Response from Host, Feb 2025

Dear Sinchana, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your experience and that Diana took great care of you! Regarding the conservation fee, we completely understand your frustration. However, as of January 12, the federal government implemented an increase in this fee, raising it beyond our control. We strive to keep our guests informed of any changes, but unfortunately, this update was applied suddenly, and we had to adjust accordingly. We truly appreciate your understanding and hope this clarifies any concerns. If there’s anything else we can do for you, please feel free to reach out. Best regards,

Miscommunication

Irina_S, Mar 2024

Bound by excitement for a grand adventure, we eagerly anticipated the Rio Secreto and Tulum combo tour, only to be ensnared in a web of misfortune. Betrayed by the company's negligence, we found ourselves imprisoned in the beauty of Rio Secreto, yearning for the distant allure of Tulum. A second day dawned, a grueling pilgrimage to Tulum ensued, each hour of the two-way trek a reminder of lost time, a haunting echo in the corridors of missed opportunities amidst the breathtaking sites.

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Dear Irina, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We deeply regret that your anticipation for a grand adventure was met with disappointment due to the absence of the Tulum portion of our Rio Secreto and Tulum combo tour. We understand the impact of missed opportunities and sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused by this oversight. We're grateful for your understanding and willingness to accept our offer to participate in the Tulum tour the following day. Your feedback is invaluable to us as we continuously strive to improve our services and provide unforgettable experiences for our guests. Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention, and we look forward to the opportunity to make things right and ensure your future experiences with us are nothing short of exceptional.

Must do!

Lee_M, Feb 2024

We loved this excursion! Everything about it and we had a great guide as well! You won’t regret this 2 in 1 excursion we loved tulum but loved the cave even more! So so fun!

Overall service exceeded my expectations, must try! Worth the penny! Staff are so welcoming and friendly, quality of gear is good, well organised, safety is the priority and comfort of the participants.

Helen_F, Jul 2022

Our guide, Luis, was excellent - he was really passionate about Rio Secreto in particular. The caves were beautiful to walk and swim through, and the equipment provided was all in good condition. I would have preferred for the official photographer to have been less intrusive though - being asked to keep posing for photos that we had no intention of buying was a bit tedious by the end. The site at Tulum was very busy, but Luis guided us around expertly. The buffet lunch was really tasty, and plenty of options.

Amazing!!

Ismael_M, Jul 2021

This was such an amazing experience and I highly recommend it to everyone. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars was because the transportation was kind of messy. Either than that, it was great!
