LabnaHa Cenotes & Eco Park

Labnaha’s Eco Park called the Magic Mayan World is exclusively open for a few visitors daily. This Park offers different activities surrounded by an exuberant jungle and a subterranean world known as magical and sacred in the Mayan culture.Experience a unforgettable descend on a zip line into the entrance of a fascinating Sacred Lakes which leads to into most spectacular Kayac traverse in the area. Refresh yourself afterwards in the Cenotes on a once a life time snorkel tour. Labnaha operates only with small groups and counts with a visitor limit per day to avoid mass tourism and the negative impact on the Eco system which allows you to enjoy without being surrounded by hundreds of people. Labnaha makes a big effort trying to teach how to enjoy this Magic Mayan World in full terms without destroying it.All activities are conducted with highly qualified and professionally trained guides. The three visited Cenotes are connected by Eco paths guided through theme paths with explanations and names of the local flora and fauna in the park. The entrance fees are used to protect a great variety of animals and trees in danger of extinction because of the ecological changes in the Riviera Maya caused by extensive constructions in the area.We are located just 35 minutes from Playa del Carmen or 10 from Tulum which makes it perfect to plan a last minute tour without having to travel hundreds of kilometres on the highway and sitting for hours in a vehicle or moving from one activity to a other one by car since all three activities are located inside the Magic Mayan Park. Age is not a limiting factor since the activities adapt depending on the exigencies and possibilities of the visitor.Included in the tour.Transportation Zip Line at the Sacred Lakes Snorkel tour in Cenote Labnaha Professional Zip Line EquipmentKayac TourOpen Cenote swimming. Snorkel equipment and live jackets Professional multilingual guide.We do not have customers we have explorers, and later...friends!!!!

This was a highlight of our trip to Tulum! We arrived early, before anyone was onsite. However Raphael was right on time as promised! After getting fitted for lifejackets and snorkels, we tucked away our belongings in the provided locker. We hopped into a very rustic jeep down a bumpy jungle road and about 10 minutes later we parked and took a short walk to the cenote. The water was chilly at first but we warmed up quickly. The water was so clear, it was incredible to see the amount of stalactites below. Would highly recommend!

Tulum Tower

You will arrive at our lobby bar where we get ready, store your personal belongings in our lockers, register and enjoy a delicious margarita or piña colada. After a few minutes we went to sit in our revolving gondola where 16 people can fit, we fasten our seatbelts and fly! We climb 35 meters high very slowly, slowly turning 360 degrees, so that everyone can enjoy a moving and unique view. Being upstairs my clients receive very important and interesting information about the Mayan civilization and the region. Then we will take some spectacular photographs, after (30) thirty minutes we go down very slowly. Finally, we went through our souvenir and photography shop. The duration of the experience is (30) thirty minutes, and it is offered in Spanish.

First time getting on this tower; it goes 118 ft up and you spend about 10 minutes up top, taking in the view of the whole area; definitely worth the price, about 8 USD per person; the view is excellent; great service from Salvador, the tower operator; will definitely come again.

We had an amazing time on the Jungla Maya Native Park tour! We chose this one because of its close proximity to our hotel. Our drivers were very knowledgeable about the local region and history of the Maya. The combination of the rappelling, ziplining and snorkeling in the cenote is sure to get your adrenaline going! At first I didn't think I could pull off the rappelling, but our tour guide Alejandro was awesome..kept me calm and talked me through it so I was comfortable. He was very informative of the local flora & fauna, bilingual, and well versed in all the activities. Highly recommend this tour if you are a thrill seeker. :)

Cenote Nicte-ha

Reviewed By BrittanyMExplores - Winnipeg, Canada

I visited Cenote Nicte-Ha on February 27, 2020 during my stay in Tulum. The cenote at the Dos Ojos Cenote Park along the highway between Tulum and Playa del Carmen. I took a colectivo van from along the main highway through Tulum town and told the driver I wanted to go to Cenote Dos Ojos. The drive took around 20 minutes and cost 30 pesos. The colectivo dropped me off along the side of the highway in front of the entrance to Cenote Dos Ojos. From the entrance, I walked along the gravel road through the jungle (which eventually leads to Cenote Dos Ojos at the end) about 15 minutes. There is a large sign indicating the entrance to Nicte-Ha on the right side of the road. There are some other cenotes along the way as well that I did have the opportunity to visit. The entrance fee was 200 pesos. Cenote Nicta-Ha is an open cenote with some cave portions around the edges. It was surrounded by jungle and the setting was quiet and beautiful. I arrived around the opening time at 9 am and was the first person there. It was lovely to enjoy the cenote completely to myself for most of my visit before some others showed up. It was a gorgeous cenote that resembled a natural pool of water, with beautiful lush plants around the edges, lots of lilypads and crystal clear water. The water was chilly but refreshing after a bit. There was a small deck area and benches by the wooden steps to enter the water where you could leave your belongings (I didn't see any lockers). There were lots of little fish that would nibble the dead skin cells on your feet if you stopped moving in the water or sat on the steps with feet in the water (you pay for this spa treatment in Playa del Carmen!). The property around the cenote was very pretty and there were pathways through the jungle leading to the facilities like change rooms, washrooms. After my visit, I walked back to the entrance of the Dos Ojos Cenote Park along the highway and waited for a colectivo along the highway. When they approach, they will flash their lights and if you wave at them, they will stop to pick you up. It was another 20 minutes and 30 pesos back to Tulum. Would highly recommend visiting this cenote. It was peaceful and pretty and lesser visited than others in the area! Easy and cheap to access from Tulum and visit on your own as well (no need to join a tour).

Beautiful eco park with 5 crystal clear cenotes & underground river. We booked the tour thru the concierge at our condo. We chose the all inclusive tour which included a lunch, tour of all 5 cenotes & the underground river. We had a wonderful guide, Clemente who was friendly, knowledgeable & passionate about his country, the eco park & the incredible cenotes & underground river.The tour was well organized with adequate time spent at each of the cenotes, the tour of the underground river was spectacular. The waters of the cenotes were crystal clear, jumping off the cliff into one of the cenotes was tons of fun even for us older tourists. The outdoor atrium where lunch was served was peaceful & relaxing ... a fitting end to a wonderful adventure!
