Bit of a walk for my kids down to this cenote, but mostly shaded (and lined with vendors). The view isn't really worth it- mostly just the history of knowing what was done here. But, we were treate…Full review by JaimeeRG

Hi there are local tour guides when you reach chichen itsa site but not at the cenote. However, you won't really need a guide at the cenote as it's just a beautiful sink hole that you can swim in - of course there's history to it but we had all that information from our guide at chichen itsa before we went to the cenote. By the time you reach the cenote it is so hot all you want to do is dive into that water!

When i went to the tour i left from my hotel to chichen itza, then to valladolid, to my undertanding there are two cenotes, one which the cenote sagrado at chichen itza which you can not swim there, from the great pyrimad to that cenote sagrado is a good 10 minute walk deping on your own pace, now at valladolid the cenote there u can swim and they do tell you its at ur own risk since it is really deep. But yes both cenotes are worth going too especially the one at valladolid that one is just like amazing! Hope this answer helps you!

Q:
I need to know if I can bring my 7 year old and my 2 year old to the Pyramids in CHICHEN ITZA and to the Sacred Cenote (Cenote Sagrado). I have no babysitters, and really want to swim in the Cenote with my kids, but I haven't seen a video of any kids swimming.. Thank you.. Also how much it cost to visit both locations?
A:
Yes to both. You are no longer allowed to climb up the pyramid, so that will not poise a problem. Keep them close , it is crowed there. We found the cenote , Ik Kil to be much better than …

Yes to both. You are no longer allowed to climb up the pyramid, so that will not poise a problem. Keep them close , it is crowed there. We found the cenote , Ik Kil to be much better than the sacred cenote, which is with about 2 kil of the pyramids
Q:
which cenote is this the one at chicken itz or il kil which one is better for swiming
A:
This watering hole described here was close to Chichen Itza. Excellent for swimming, but the water was on the cold side. Very deep with a place to jump off a cliff. Worth a stop.
