Los 7 Cenotes is a private reserve at Hacienda San Gerónimo, around 1.5 hours from Mérida. Our guided tours explore a jungle route and two contrasting cenotes: Mariposa Azul and El Inframundo. We welcome no more than two groups a day, by reservation only. Choose a private tour for activities and dining reserved for your group, or join a shared experience.
You don’t need to choose before contacting us. For a private full day, start with Azul Profundo or Reflejo Mágico. Both reserve the cenote activities and dining for your group, although other guests may be elsewhere on the hacienda. Shared experiences offer half-day and full-day options with other guests. Send us your preferred date, group size, and any questions; we’ll recommend a fit and explain the price and availability.
Half-day experiences usually run from 10 AM to around 2 PM. Full-day experiences normally finish between 4 and 5 PM; Azul Profundo and Reflejo Mágico start at 11 AM, while the others usually start at 10 AM. We confirm your exact arrival time with your reservation.
The drive takes approximately 1.5 hours. Transportation is not included. You can drive yourself using the directions provided after booking, or ask us to arrange transportation for an additional fee.
Every experience includes bilingual guides, flotation vests, purified water, basic first aid, and guided access to both cenotes. Most include bicycles and helmets; the walking experiences do not. Full-day options include a traditional Yucatecan meal. Drinks and sensory moments vary by experience.
Transportation, breakfast, gratuities and VAT are not included in the displayed price. The 18-metre jump is included only with Reflejo Mágico and depends on weather and safe operating conditions.
Most experiences are designed for guests ages 8-65. Flotation vests are provided, and guides enter the water with you. Swimming, cycling, and jumping are optional, but following the guides' safety instructions is required. The underground cenote is completely dark, with the guide carrying the flashlight. Children aged seven or younger who do not participate must remain with an adult from your group. Tell us about everyone coming so we can recommend the safest fit.
If someone in your group doesn't want to ride a bicycle, that's fine. They can travel between the cenotes in the support vehicle or follow by car, and we also have experiences without bicycles. The bicycle height limit is 2 metres. The maximum rider weight is 100 kg. See your chosen experience for its requirements.
Los 7 Cenotes takes its name from the land and the cenotes that shape it. Today’s experience brings you into two of its most remarkable environments: the open, crystalline waters of Mariposa Azul and the hidden underground world of El Inframundo. Together, they reveal two completely different sides of the reserve.
Experiences continue in sunshine, cloud, and light rain. Activities are suspended when hurricane or cyclone alerts are active or electrical storms make conditions unsafe.
