Cenote Xoch — Attraction in Homún

Laura (Arturo's wife) took me round 4 cenotes on her motorbike. Even though there was a bit of a language barrier that didn't stop us from laughing! They don't speak English and shouldn't need to, so practice your Spanish beforehand or get out Google translator. I got a taxi from Mérida to Homun (using Cabify or Uber can cost up to $500 one way - if you do this I highly recommend to ask the cab driver to wait for you and offer to pay cash as incentive - I had to pay $200 extra for him to wait). They collected me from San Jose restaurant and off we set. You need to pay at each cenote $50 and then you pay Arturo and Laura what you think the tour is worth. Laura took loads of photos and videos for me and as a solo female traveller it was really nice to have a female guide. They will take you to as many cenotes as you want, just let them know how many you want to visit or how much time you have. Highly recommend...

We had a wonderful memory box morning in Homun. After I'd arranged online with Carlos via What's app we were met as agreed by Arturo in his bici taxi about 10.30. First he took us to rent life jackets (50pesos per person) and then we toured 3 cenotes. One semi open, one closed and one open. it was interesting to see the difference between them and for some of the time, we had them to ourselves. Each cenote was between 50-70 pesos pp to enter and you'd maybe stay 20-30 mins at each but it's up to you. There are more commercialised ones you can visit with restaurants/ lockers and changing facilities but this felt so much better. Arturo would mind your bags and take pics whilst you were jumping in or taking photos. The tour operates on a trip basis. We were out just under 3 hours and gave 400 mxn but it seems to be...

All we can say is WOW! The cenote tour with Carlos Chan was a true adventure into some of the most fantastic and off the beaten path cenotes in Yucatan. Avoid all the hawkers with the signs at every intersection in Homun and contact Carlos and his elite group of guides.. He works with a group of 12 and they all believe in the same philosophy: Treat your clients to the best experience possible and taylor the tour to meet their desires and expectations. We were only going to spend a day here but it was so much fun and interesting we hired him for the following day. There was a huge variety of cenotes and each was special and interesting. We even visited a few newly opened ones like Agua Azul. Forget the big expensive tours, contact Carlos instead and tour with him or one of his trained...
