Cenotes de homun Yucatán — Attraction in Homún

We were told homun was def the place to check out for cenotes, and I understood why once we arrived. Multiple Cenotes down one rocky dirt road.Can you drive there, absolutely, but since it was our first time we decided to use a local tour guide, and you def need a taller car.The cost is $400 pesos to be taken on the bike taxi for the day up to 4 people. Because each cenote is on private properties you pay the families to enter each individua one, the cheapest one we went to was $60 pesos, the most expensive was $100. And all worth it. And it was cute to see that the cenote people cut the tour guide a small commission for bringing us there, although he was trying to hide it. The guide rented us life vest for $70 pesos. Vest are needed to enter all cenotes and you’ll have to rent them from each individual location if not, so the price to us was worth it. Each cenote offered something unique. One had a high dive platform, another was a gorgeous bat filled cave, with a huge swimming hole, and the last one we went to had multiple Depths, lots of fishies you can feed, a smaller jumping platform, and multiple entrance points. All of them had steep steps and not meant for anyone with mobility issues. While The guides Aren’t cheap, and I’m sure they charge us more than local Mexicans, knowing you are contributing to a family, and a Community, truly brings meaning to spending my hard earned money… highly...

Our family spent a great day exploring cenotes with Jose. The day started stress free because Jose communicated very well with us the day before. He provided ideas for bus and van options out of Merida and a pickup location with flexible times. We met up at the town church in Humon at 8am to beat the crowds. Since there are 13 cenotes he asked what types of cenotes we wanted to visit. We visited Canunchen then Bamil. Both were great. Canunchen has a fun rope that you can swing off into the cenote. It also has a very high platform to dive off!

We were tired after both cenotes and decided to call it a day after a great lunch with Jose.

We would totally recommend having Jose as a guide as the experience is stress free, more fun, and informative.

Note: we chose a taxi out of Merida. The taxi took us to Humon and waited for us to...

It was such a wonderful day! Both Mr Jose and his son were fabulous guides. Not only did they take us to the best cenotes, but they were also very knowledgeable and made wonderful conversation in between cenotes. They asked what kind of cenotes we would like to visit, what was important to us and tailored the tour according to our wishes. They are very kind, lovely to be around. A MUST if you are...
