Who you will be welcomed by the staff and you will check in, where you will be given the first explanations about the natural treasure you are visiting.

Later a transport will direct us in a combi to the entrance of the Secret River, where you will find the dressing rooms and the restaurant.

Then you will be given your equipment for the activity to perform as lifeguards and viewfinders, then you will start the tour through the underground galleries walking on the rock and swimming a little.

Additional Information

Picture yourself in utter darkness, where your eyes can’t adjust and only your flashlight serves as a light source. In such a location, silence is so profound that mere standing still enables you to hear your breath and the occasional water droplet falling from stalactites.

Known as Pool Tunich in Maya, Secret River is a network of passages and subterranean rivers created through rock erosion. The grotto network is the longest of its kind (unflooded) throughout the entire Yucatan Peninsula.

Of all the cenotes found in Yucatan, Rio Secreto distinguishes itself and has been coined the ‘Crystal Museum’. Unlike other underground caves available for exploration in the state, this one is abundant in natural crystal formations and was unveiled less than a decade ago.

It’s indeed a natural underground heaven in close proximity to Tulum!

Great experience but hotel pick up a disaster - My two teenage daughters and I booked this trip. The Rio Secreto experience was excellent. Our guide was very funny and informative and made the experience very enjoyable - i would highly recommend this trip for children older then 10. However our Hotel pick up was a disaster. The exact pick up point was not made clear on their communication and there fore we missed the transportation and had to pay for a taxi which added a lot more money onto the trip. All in all...great experience but beware of instructions for pick up point and clarify if not not sure.
