I went on Cenote Dive Tour with Adventure Tour Center. It was simply amazing and definitely a highlight of my life, thanks to our amazing guide and Instructor Georgie. This was my very first Tulum/Mexico and my very first dive ever. During my stay I visited multiple dive shops (there is a lot), but this one stood out the most to me. My wife and I came across their shop in town and we met Victor at the shop who was very helpful and patient to explain to us all the the tours they do, all the details, and what they offer for beginners like myself. I requested a custom tour which combines the Discovery dive at Casa Cenote and Snorkelling at Dos Ojos. Victor was able to work it out with Julio the owner over the phone and tailor a suitable price for us. They were more than happy to even accommodate my need to pay half cash and half on my Visa card. The day of our dive we arrived at the shop and we were greeted by Victor, Julio (owner) and Georgie (instructor) who helped us get fitted into our gear (fins, masks, …). Transportation was included so Georgie took us to our first spot which was Cast Cenote for my very first dive ever (my wife tried this before, luck her!). Georgie is very experienced instructor she explained everything to us while we put on our wet suits (signs under water, how to put on the gear, what’s the purpose of every thing we are putting. I love details and this run down was amazing and fully detailed. First we went for our dive and got to learn how to put on our masks under water, breath under water, buoyancy, clean the masks (all the discovery basics). On our dive we saw Panchito (an alligator that lives in the denote) and Vincent (Panchito’s son I think). Apparently seeing those two is a rare occurrence but it takes an experienced guide like Georgie to spot them for you. It was an awesome way to kick off the first dive of my life by seeing fish, alligator, and dive in a cenote. Our second spot was Dos Ojos where we learned about cave diving and got me excited to get licensed next time and actually go for it. In Dos Ojos, Georgie took us to the bat cave! Again you can’t make it there unless you have an experienced guide like Georgie to make your way in there. We saw millions of bats in there (well too many to count). Later we were dropped off at the shop were Julio made sure that the whole experience lived up to our expectations. I highly recommend Adventure Tour Center for their level of professionalism and knowledge they bring to the table. Georgie was the icing on the cake as she brought a whole new level of passion an d dedication to what she does as dive instructor. Thank you Adventure Tour Center (Victor, Julio, Georgie) for such a memorable experience, my wife and I are super satisfied and know where is the best dive shop in Tulum.

My girlfriend and I walked into the store initially to find out prices on buying some snorkelling gear. Giulio was at the desk and we quickly felt a good rapport and I started asking questions about scuba diving.

My girlfriend had done an intro dive and filled me with a lot of curiosity. Giulio offered to take us out to Casa Cenote and do an intro dive there. The price was right and we felt a lot of confidence in Giulio.

He got us kitted out with wet suits, flippers and regulators and drove us out to pick up air tanks and head to the Cenote.

A-mazing. Like being in another world, The sunlight streaming down into the cenote just made all the shadows and rocks and underwater plant life seem like a wonderland. I just wanted to explore everywhere and in fact I almost swam off into a hidden cave system which was restricted to qualified divers. Giulio was on to me however and kept my enthusiasm properly focussed.

It was the highlight of my Tulum trip, I just wanted to whoop and exclaim how cool it all was but I had a regulator in my mouth so I was just a ball of excitement. And it was also double cool to be sharing the experience with my love.

I rate this experience totally. Get involved and have no doubts.

Thanks Giulio! Thanks Adventure tour center!

I was diving with Adventure Tour Centre (ATC) for 10 days and it was truly wonderful experience. ATC is located at the very centre of Tulum and is very easy to find. Dive masters are highly profesional, all the time taking care of their clients, not only related to safety, but also of their wishes, ensuring amazing adventures full of wonders and fun.

I was prepared to not enjoy diving as the thought of it honestly scared me.
However, Giulio was fantastic and talked me through all my initial fears and doubts. He's a great instructor, and I felt safe and prepared every time we went diving.
I would highly recommend him for any first time divers (as well as to the experienced).
We've booked in our next dive with Adventure Tour Centre this week.
Definitely a must, when visiting Tulum and looking to do some scuba diving!

I did my refresher course with Giulio as my instructor and I must say that the level of professionalism from Giulio makes you feel comfortable when going into the water. I have to say that I did a lot better than I thought that I would after being out of the water as long as I had.

There 2 other people there taking their open water and the attention that Giulio paid to them was reassuring that should anything go wrong he would be there to help. I highly recommend using Adventure Tour Center for the novice to the expert as you will never be disappointed.

Thank you Giulio as I had a great time and dive!

I didn’t really know what to expect from the Muyil River Float tour but it ended up being one of my favorite things I did during my stay in tulum. It was a pretty spiritual experience and Carlos was an incredible guide. I didn’t know it would be a private tour for me and my boyfriend but I’m so glad it was because everything felt so personal! It was clear how passionate Carlos was about Sian Ka’an (and about life in general) and the energy was infectious. He took us to one of the best taco places in tulum which was just incredible. We really enjoyed our conversations and it was amazing to see Carlos enjoying himself as much as we did! He even gave us a ride to the tulum ruins after we were done. He is just the best and cannot recommend him and the tour enough! Definitely ask for Carlos when doing a tour with ATC!

From booking details with the shop worker the night before through the dive, the entire operation was extremely well organized and the experience was unforgettable. Dive master (Gibran) was knowledgeable and I appreciated the time he took during the pre dive briefing to prepare the group. Definitely would recommend this shop - consummate professionals.

For me as a professional photographer it is very important to be able to count on a good logistic in a dive center, this is one of the reasons why I come back every time and dive with the same amazing dive center in Tulum - the ATC Adventure Tour center. Giulio and his team are very professional and I spend every time a great time with the whole team. From diving with other trips included.

I did my open water course with Giulio last November. He’s not only an expert, he also makes you feel like family. Diving is not something I ever saw myself doing, but after training with ATC, you can’t help but appreciate all that diving has to offer. Giulio and his team are amazing! Super knowledgeable, and they also know how to teach even if it doesn’t come naturally at first. We’ve been to Tulum twice now, and have done dives with Giulio both times. Always a highlight of our time here.

It was my first time ever scuba diving, never thought I would dare to but a friend persuaded me to have a try. Then I ended up with these people. I felt so safe and comfortable here. During the tour I got the exact information I needed as a beginner. The guide was extremely experienced, it was amazing how he spoke about his passion. I learned a lot and got over my fear and since that scuba diving has opened a whole new world for me
