    Fantastic experience. We drove in early, arriving at 9am. We were welcomed by Fransisco, who then continued to be our guide throughout the day. We opted for the ATV option, and I can thoroughly say is worth it. Because we got in so early, we had every cenote to ourselves, it was surreal. Coming from London, an experience like this was mind blowing. After doing all the cenotes, we bought tickets for the restaurant, which is buffet style. The food was great, and exactly what we wanted. The location was well managed and maintained. The facilities clean. The team working there friendly. For anyone looking for a day out visiting beautiful scenery, my advice is get in early, get the atv and take a moment to appreciate the beauty of the location. Thank you Francisco for taking us around.
