We dove the Dos Ojos Cenote on the Batcave line, followed by El Pit. Fantastic diving with our excellent guide Jonathan. I reached out to the company through Facebook Messenger,... read more but continued on WhatsApp. Everything was a breeze. A nice lunch with good vegetarian options was provided with the 2 dives. I will be a return customer.
August 15, 2022Charles RWe have been diving in the Tulum area for many years but never dove either The Pit or Angelita...We contacted Dani at The Cenote Guy and requested a private dive... read more guide for these two cenotes. She answered promptly and assigned us an amazing guide - Andrea. Andrea was a true professional and a font of knowledge. More importantly she helped when we needed assistance but left us to do our photography when we needed space. If you want to dive the cenotes, contact Dani and ask for Andrea...A thrill of a lifetime!

August 12, 2022onematoI’ve had the opportunity to dive and travel to may different places around the world. There are truly amazing sites one can visit, but what makes or breaks the... read more experience is the operation.
Cenote diving is and incredibly awe inspiring lifetime experience. I don’t think I have better words to express the cenote diving experience. But in order to have the best possible experience cenote diving must be timed precisely to ensure maximum awesomeness. What is best about it, there is not one dive like the other, we were blown away by each and every single cenote we visited (our group did 15 total).
Aydin, the cenote guy, is your guy to get the most out of your cenote dives. He knows the times of the day to start each dive according to location and light conditions, he thoroughly debriefs each dive and explains the things that we should be in the look out for, from the geology of the place to wildlife, from special features of the dive to the price break down.
Aydin and Paco, our second guide, were super professional, respectful, friendly, not to mention they are top notch divers. They took care of every single detail, transportation (from the air filling station), gas (mostly dove air but did one day with EAN32), weights, lunch, drinks, snacks, and even got bigger tanks for the air hogs for specific deep dives that way we could enjoy longer bottom times (always respecting the NDL). All of us brought our own equipment but one person in our team had some issues with the BCD and they were able to quickly provide a replacement to ensure they continue diving.
Our group did 15 dives over 5 days. All of our dives were over 40 min long with the longest one being 66 min long! The average depth was about 30-45 ft (9-14m). The deepest I went was 116 ft (35 m), but a few cenotes are much deeper than this.
It doesn’t matter if you are doing 1 day dive or 5+ days of diving, you must consider The Cenote Guy to get the most out of your dives.
August 11, 2022hugog985Last Monday I arrived at The Cenote Guy in Playa del Carmen, ready to do some scuba diving in a cenote. I had mistaken the day! My reservation was for... read more Thursday. But when they realized that I had crossed from Cozumel, they bend themselves backwards to help me save the day, and they did save my day and made it formidable. Aydin, one of the master divers, drove me with his group to meet another master diver, Mauricio who could accommodate one more person in his group at cenote Dos Ojos. All of it with Dani coordinating everything since the reservation up to the last-minute communication with the master divers. I can not thank them enough! They are amicable, professional and so well organized, making The Cenote Guy a well-oiled operation.
About the cenote diving itself, I’d say that whoever could describe it with words, has never done it. It’s a lot more than I expected. I will return one day for a full week of scuba diving with The Cenote Guy. Thanks a lot to Ayden, Dani and Mauricio for a fabulous adventure!
August 11, 2022scenicartist2018Fifteen cenotes in five days of diving. Aiden and his team are passionate about the Cenote system of the Yucatán and they absolutely love to show them to everyone.

August 10, 2022gabrielamagalhaesThis is our second time diving with Aydin, after meeting him in 2019. We did again 5 days of diving, but this time 3 dives a day, instead of just... read more 2. Hey, write this down: THE CENOTE GUY IS THE BEST CENOTE DIVING EXPERIENCE! Do not hesitate in booking. He gives you almost a private experience, taking good care of everyone in your group. He is so so so knowledgeable about all the cenotes and it’s history, he is an amazing guide, and last but not least, Aydin inspires confidence. We let him choose all the Cenotes (we did provide him with a list of a must do), and he does better than any other guide/diving company, taking into consideration time of the day, lights, etc. We were a large group of 8, so Paco (also a cenote guy) came as a guide as well, and he is as amazing as Aydin! So, Paco and Aydin, THANK YOU! 15 cenotes in 5 days! Ow! You guys, rock and made our trip a big success. 24 hours after our last dive, our group are still talking about how great everything was. From the booking, to our good byes - see you very soon! 🙂

MEET THE CENOTE GUY
Where it all began
When Aydin arrived in Playa del Carmen in 2016, he had no idea that, he was about to discover his true bliss. It took just one cenote dive for Aydin to become addicted to this unique, euphoric activity. At that moment, his life turned green and blue, in other words, cenote diving became the highlight of his life.
Leaving behind an engineering career in Paris, Aydin moved to Playa del Carmen, obtained all the necessary certifications and gained a lot of experience as a cavern diving guide so he could turn his passion into a profession, lifestyle and create The Cenote Guy community.


A Cenote Awakening
For Aydin, cavern diving in cenotes is a physical and spiritual calling. Above all else, he is driven by his deep passion to share this incredible experience with other kindred spirits. He feels great pleasure from guiding visitors through the sacred underwater tunnels of the Mayan Riviera, sharing his knowledge about the deep history of this ancient land and its beautiful, magical culture.
The best part is seeing people’s facial expressions of absolute amazement, after their first dive with The Cenote Guy. Most are entranced through their euphoric experience, and this is a truly priceless reward. Seeing people come together before the dive as strangers and leave as friends forever is one of the best parts of being a Cenote Guy.
So, is Aydin The Cenote Guy?
The answer is both Yes and No.
Yes, because for him The Cenote Guy refers to a mindset, a way of being, a passion for exploring a mystical underworld, and an addiction to share this experience with fellow adventurers.
But also No, because he is not the only Cenote Guy. A Cenote Guy is anyone who has experienced cenote diving and understood how impactful and powerful the experience is…. the next Cenote Guy may soon be YOU!
Aydin would never be so presumptuous as to claim to be the one and only Cenote Guy! He knows his love for cenote diving is contagious. He has watched many clients become Cenote Guys and expects to see many more in the future. He enjoys seeing the cenotes as a pilgrimage place for divers who are as captivated and entranced by cenote diving as he is, and growing an international community of Cenote Guys.
