The best diving experience I've ever had Bottom line up front: if you're visiting Playa del Carmen, or anywhere close, RUN-DON'T-WALK to book a diving trip with The Cenote Guy. I have about 25 dives under my belt, but it had been 3 years since my last one. I did 4 dives over the course of 2 days, with Karina serving as my guide on Day 1 and Aydin (the owner) guiding me Day 2. They were absolutely excellent, took the time to refresh my skills and make sure I was comfortable, and then proceeded to create a set of the best diving experiences of my entire life. Both were extremely professional and very generous with their extensive knowledge, and I very much enjoyed getting to know them both. They took the time to assess my skills, understand what I wanted/needed, and created dives to match my capabilities. I'd recommend the cenote-diving experience to Divers of all skill levels. If you're a beginner, the conditions are very forgiving and a good place to improve your skills (no strong currents, manageable depths, excellent visibility). If you're experienced, but have only dived oceans/reefs, the cenotes are a whole new ballgame, full of unique sights and characteristics. I'd heard of cenote-diving, but thought "What's the big deal? It's a hole in the ground". I was very, very wrong. Although it's hard for me to put into words, the experience was both awe-inspiring and magical. I saw things on those dives that I thought were reserved for movies and were the stuff of Hollywood special effects. And there's not a better group to go out with them The Cenote Guy. They're the only outfit I'm aware of that focuses exclusively on cenote diving, and their expertise is matched only by their enthusiasm, and their desire to insure that the client has an excellent diving experience. I'm already planning a return trip to Mexico in a few months, in large part fueled by my desire to join Aydin and the rest of The Cenote Guy team in exploring more that the cenotes have to offer. They get my highest recommendation.

10 STARS wouldn't be enough! Looking for an adventure, a beautiful dive, or an informative and educational experience? With The Cenote Guy you don't have to choose or sacrifice any of these options- you get them all! Aydin was friendly and personable. It was obvious from the start that he was passionate about the cenotes and took his responsibilities as a dive master/ guide seriously. The dives felt tailored to our preferences and skills. I highly recommend The Cenote Guy and look forward to my next trip to the cenotes to dive with Aydin again, it was truly a transformative experience for me!

Mexico Cenote Dive If you’re looking for a private Cenote dive guide, the Cenote guy is the perfect choice. We visited two cenotes.. Dos Ojos and the Pit. During the guided dive you have the opportunity to swim, snorkel as well as dive. Our guide provided detailed information about the history & topography of the cenotes. He also set expectations prior to each dive. We ended our excursion with a fantastic dinner at a local restaurant palapa style bar. I would highly recommend the Cenote Guy to anyone whether advanced or novice in diving skills.

Aydin is the man! Our experience with The Cenote Guy was unbelievable. I really had no expectations before seeing my first cenote, but Aydin surely showed us his favorite hideaways. I had seen pictures of some cenotes before, but Aydin showed us ones that I couldn't even believe were real. He was so knowledgable and passionate about everything he does and it really rubbed off on the rest of us. We saw spots that seemed to be away from most of the tourists, so we basically got our own private tour of some of the most beautiful natural sights. I would highly encourage anyone who is considering visiting their first cenote to reach out to The Cenote Guy for a truly remarkable experience. He will take you to places that normal tours and excursions would never take you. He will always make sure that you are comfortable and well taken care of. He was not only our tour guide, but also our friend. Between dinners, drives, and dives, he was a great companion to have during our trip. I wish I could give him 6 stars! Thank you Aydin!

Made Memories That Will Last Forever! Last week my family/ friends and I had the pleasure of having Aydin as our dive guide while we went to multiple different cenotes! He is such a nice man and you can tell that he truly cares and has a passion for this. He shared so much information with us about the history of the cenotes, as well as the rest of Riviera Maya. I not only was able to gain a lot of knowledge regarding cenotes, but most importantly I was able to make an amazing friend with the kindest heart! Aydin has such an excitement and passion for this, it's infectious! I was lucky enough to spend my birthday snorkeling at Dos Ojos and Cenote Calavera, and he even got me balloons! If you are looking to have the unforgettable experience of snorkeling, or diving with him, you should jump at the opportunity!

Amazing diving experience Aydin took my on a private tour to the cenotes. He was more like a friend than a tour guide. took me diving and and amazing experience wth him.

I'd give 6 stars if I could! We went to Dos Ojos, The pit, Angelita and Tajma Ha with him (2 days in a row). It was my first time doing cenote dives, so I was a bit anxious. But Cenote Guy was very reassuring and professional . I felt completely safe. Cenotes are absolutely amazing places. If you are in this part of the world, don't miss it! And I totally recommend Cenote Guy. He clearly knows and loves what he is doing. We had a great time and an unforgettable experience!

A Magical Experience in Dos Ojos! My boyfriend and I went to Dos Ojos cenotes for a day of diving with the Cenote Guy. We had an amazing, unforgettable day! Aydin is incredibly knowledgeable about the geology, geography, and history of the cenotes and the area, which made our experience super interesting and special. I am not a certified diver (yet) and was just planning to tag along and snorkel during their dives (Bat Cave and El Pit) but Aydin went above and beyond to include me in the experience and show me some sights that I never expected to see! I really appreciated his generosity, kindness and awareness of our comfort and enjoyment- he truly loves diving in the cenotes and is excited to share his passion. We can’t wait to come back to experience more cenotes as soon as possible- my boyfriend is a very experienced diver and this trip exceeded all of his previous experiences. Aydin’s passion for cenote diving is infectious and I cannot wait to come back as a certified diver for our next adventure!

An unforgettable experience with an unparalleled guide Cenote diving is an experience like no other, and diving with The Cenote Guy is the best way to maximize it. Aydin’s passion for Cenote exploration is unparalleled infectious, and while Cenote diving is not for the faint of heart, Aydin easily keeps you calm, comfortable, and curious. He is also incredibly generous with his time and knowledge, you’re sure to learn a lot about the science and history behind Cenotes and the Yucatán region, which truly amplifies the experience. I’ve have been diving since I was 10 years old, off several continents in multiple oceans including Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, the warm clear waters of the Caribbean, and the kelp forests off the coast of California, and nothing I’ve seen compares to what we experienced in the Dos Ojos Cenote system. The only negative was that the day had to end! All divers should experience this for themselves, and any diver understands the immense value of having a guide such as Aydin. After today, I can confidently say I am a Cenote Guy!

Amazing Had an amazing experience with Aydin! His passion and dedication shows throughout the day. Not only he gaves us one of the best dive of my entire life, but we also felt very safe and well taken care of. On top of that he his very knowledgeable and loves to share all the secrets about the Cenotes to makes the dives even more interesting... I would definitely recommend the Cenote guy to explore the cenotes!!!
