This was a sacred water hole for the ancient Mayans - source of drinking water and for watering crops. Now it's a swimming pool.Full review by InsightfulTourists

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!

A:
Sonoran's answer is perfect. It's an easy walk - maybe 10-15 minutes - to the site. Lots of vendors along the way. Yes, hats and sunscreen are advisable.

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:
Hi, we were there early in the morning and there were one or two families with small children in the site already. In my post about the site there are prices as of Nov 2014, I don't …

Hi, we were there early in the morning and there were one or two families with small children in the site already. In my post about the site there are prices as of Nov 2014, I don't remember them off hand. There are trees all around the site, so there is shade to be found, but I saw some clever people with umbrellas once the sun got high and they seemed quite comfortable. You are not able to swim in the cenote at Chichen Itza, you will have to go down the road to the Ik Kil cenote, which is quite kid friendly as it has life jackets and change rooms and ice cream. You will need a taxi, it is much too far to walk.
Q:
which cenote is this the one at chicken itz or il kil which one is better for swiming
A:
We went to a separate one about 20 mins from chichen it had a fab tourist restaurant and the cenote swim was great, has steps down and lockers really the most cool experience
