    Newly opened cenote. 1600 pesos per person. (Juanita in the Dos Ojos parking lot) Very aquatic. Exploration is fairly free. Lots of swimming. Fish and bats abound. Quite well preserved.

    Awesome experience, the guide was professional. The caves were very interesting to swim through. Only downside is we felt rushed leaving us feeling like we didn't get to experience the whole tour

    The ATV tour and the cenote visit were great, but charging $60 for the photo package is a rip-off.
