Things to do in  Cancun

We are novice birders who just enjoy watching birds and learning more about them. Carlos and Miguel are experts and spotted 37 species of gorgeous birds for us to see in just a couple hours. They were so kind and thoughtful, and made our tour a highlight of our Cancun visit.

Just walked out of the Cancun airport and the rep was standing right there with a sign. Driver was super friendly, spoke great English, and had a great sense of humor. What a smooth transaction in comparison to the nightmare scenario of arriving at the airport without having booked.

Mario was prompt, courteous and an excellent driver. Very friendly and spoke great English. This is perfect transfer service to make you feel welcome and comfortable as you arrive and depart on Cancun. I highly recommend.

Highly recommended food tour in Cancun. I really enjoyed the garlic shrimp tacos and the lamb tacos. The ladies are great and explain the food in exceptional detail while ensuring you’re having a great time checking out the different places. This is one of the activities that I really enjoyed in Cancun.

Hi! Just got back from our stay at Cancun, this tour is HIGHLY recommended! First of all the driver Don Manuel, super friendly and a safe driver and Mike (Miguel) the tour guide is THE BEST. The group was a mix of spanish/english speaking people and wow I don’t know how he had the patience to say it ALL in both languages, amazing! My husband and I felt very safe with them. Also at first when we purchased the trip we were thinking that we would feel a bit rushed but not all, it was actually enough time to enjoy at each place. Mike(Miguel) gave very clear instructions for each trip there were no problems at all. We LOVED our tour and would def. book again with them. Thank you guys!

This was an awesome adventure! I was alone on this trip and the tour guide was very informative on how to drive the speedboat. It was not hard if you have any driving experience. The mangroves were beautiful and once we arrived to the snorkeling spot the guide was so awesome he convince me to snorkel for the first time. We even went as far as to see the underwater museum. I was terrified but the guide literally heals my hand the entire time. It turned out to be beautiful. I saw pirahnas barracudas, Nemo and Dorry lol. I bought the entire media package for $35. The Cancun prop was Instagram worthy alone. I would recommend a billion times over. I was also a few minutes late but they allowed me to still join the group.

We had such a great time on this tour! Mario was incredibly knowledgeable and made the day wonderful! We started with Tulum, and it really was like having a behind the scenes tour. Tulum itself is beautiful, and we learned all about the history of the Mayans in Tulum. After we left Tulum, Mario made sure to stop for us to buy local Mayan honey since we said we’d like some. He made sure we got exactly what we wanted. Then we had a traditional Mayan lunch with pork, chicken, and fish. It was all good, but the puerco pibil was amazing. After lunch, we toured Cobá, which we’d never heard of before this tour. We’re all so glad we went to see these primitive ruins in the jungle. After Cobá, we headed to a cenote to swim, then back to our hotel. This was a long day, but it was fantastic. We highly recommend this tour, especially if you’d like to learn some history during your stay in Cancun!

Excellent tour! The pickup at the Hotel Riu Cancun was on-time and great communication with the tour operator made it easy. Our tour guide, Florentino, knew excessive information about the history of the sights, and communicated well in both English and Spanish. The food is very good. The cenote is stunning! Chichén Itzá was spectacular, just wish we had a bit more free time to walk around. Overall, a great tour!

Our return trip from our resort to the airport was just as perfect as our transfer from the airport to our resort. They communicated with me the day prior to confirm time and pick up location. The driver arrived early and had already started retrieving our baggage from the bell hop when we arrived at the pick up point. Driver was friendly, courteous, and spoke perfect english. I absolutely can not recommend this transportation provider enough. The only way to go when it comes to Cancun transfers.

My family of 6 made this trip in December. The guides were friendly, funny, and informative. The bus was very comfortable; water and umbrellas were offered for the Chichen Itza visit. I do wish the guided portion of the tour went a little faster so we would have had more time to explore. The cenote visit was amazing, and the buffet lunch was a great taste of local cuisine. Everyone was very helpful and friendly. I've already recommended this excursion to a coworker vistiting Cancun this summer.

What a fantastic tour! A total of six customers and three crew members which ensured for adequate social distancing. The snorkel crew (two Georges) and Arturo the Captain were fantastic and made sure to point the way to see a sea turtle as well as helping two customers who weren’t as comfortable in the water as others. Cannot recommend this highly enough with some prime snorkeling spots and tons of fish viewing, not to mention the shipwreck. Can’t wait to visit Cancun and do this again!

Galo and his team (Chino, Frank and Salvador) are the best. Other than a little mixed up on the return time in Valladolid the tour was perfect, everyone was so nice and helpful. Salvador the local guide at Chichen Itza was very knowledgeable and informative. Highly recommend this tour. Felt very safe even during COVID. You should really take the time to visit Chichen Itza while in Cancun or in the area and you can’t go wrong with this tour company. And I can’t emphasize enough that it is safe to travel, so pack and go!!

Our flight arrived in Cancun after 8 p.m. so the usual gauntlet of timeshare touts between customs and the exit doors was absent, thankfully. And once outside, there was our driver holding a sign with my name in big letters. Even though it was a typical collectivo van, it was just us and the driver for our trip to the hotel. The return was equally slick. The van arrived at the hotel on the dot and deposited us for departure at Terminal 2 in plenty of time to browse the duty free mall. We felt the price was very reasonable for the added social distancing. Reserving and prepaying through Viator was so easy, we did it twice this fall, once for a private airport transfer to Cabo, and again in Cancan.

I researched a whole bunch of other excursions before giving in to this one and I am so happy we did. What was attractive was the roundtrip transportation, open bar, half day experience, snorkeling and the trip to Isla Mujeres. I am going to write a lengthy review because I relied so heavily on reviews of these experiences and would like others to be able to benefit as well. The trip was scheduled to start at 12:30 but they send an email that says they will pick you up around 11am for Hotel Zone and to be expecting an email with the exact time. I kept checking my email up until about 9am on the day of the excursion and still didn't hear from them, so I made a quick phone call to them where they answered promptly and said we would be picked up at 11:30AM. The driver was RIGHT on time (which I love). They will ask you for your e-ticket for verification and then you are on your way. We picked up one other couple for a total of 4 of us in a van which allowed for safe social distancing. From our hotel to the marina was approx 20 minutes. We arrived and were greeted by a hostess who verified our info and collected the $13 docking fee (they will accept USD and give change but bring exact amount for convenience). We walked down to the boat and were greeted by our boat crew. Before we stepped foot on the boat, we removed our shoes which were then sanitized and given hand sanitizer. There was a family of 4 (2 parents with 2 younger daughters) plus the other couple for a total of 8 people plus the crew which consisted of 4 people but there was PLENTY of room where we were all able to safely keep our distance. This I was very happy about! We then met our guide Carlos, Capt Felipe, photographer Jose and the other boy whose name I can't remember but he worked the sails. Carlos was a great guide - very friendly, funny and made you feel very comfortable. Our first endeavor was snorkeling - we were given the life vests, snorkel/mask, fins and given instructions by Carlos about safety. I have to admit, it was kind of scary to be in the middle of the Caribbean Sea, but once I got more comfortable, it really was a wonderful experience. The water was so clear, the fish were adorable and it was so cool to the see the reefs below us. We didn't spend too much time snorkeling before we were on our way to the Island. When we arrived to the island, Carlos shows us where our meeting spot was, which was where we were to meet at the end to head back. From there, he brought us over to where we could rent golf carts. Highly recommend to rent the golf carts as although the island is small, it's a large area to cover by foot when you only have about 2 hours. For one hour, it was $25 and the driver needs to have a valid driver's license. I'd recommend going around the island, away from the hustle and bustle and try to head to the ice sculptures and we also heard there was a place to see some sea turtles. There are also a lot of places to stop by and take pictures. When we finished our hour with the golf cart, we spent the rest of our time at the beach/in the water before heading back. We all met at the meeting spot and then brought back on board to go back to Cancun. The whole crew were incredibly attentive to us as well. The drinks were good and the pico de Gallo and guacamole were delicious! Jose (the photographer) took some amazing photos too. I know he wanted to get a lot of photos for us but he also understood when we said no more at that time. We did have the option to buy the photos at the end which he gave to us on a USB drive. Overall, it was an absolutely beautiful trip and I would highly recommend it. Absolutely worth the money. **Key Notes** Bring sunscreen Bring a towel We tipped 20% of the total excursion

Wow, wow, wow! Definitely worth it! Cancun Bay tours’ staff was amazing. Our tour guide throughout was Ricardo and I highly recommend him as he is very knowledgeable from Mayan culture to colonial history. Speaks English very well and easily switched between Spanish and English with ease. Though he did not facilitate the English speaking tour of Chichen Itzá (he facilitated the Spanish one), I’m sure he would’ve been a great guide. Our guide at Chichen was Cesar and man, does this guy knows his history, Mayan history and culture. He was very knowledgeable and spoke with such pride and enthusiasm when explaining all the ruins, not just the temple of Kukulcan. Book Cesar to show you around Chichen. Best tour during our trip!

I first want to say that the tour guides were great. They created a very fun atmosphere and were skilled at snorkeling and taking care of the guests. My only issue with this tour is that I was expecting to see the underwater museum as advertised in the photographs on the tour page. They are advertising the many statues of people in the underwater museum and that is why I purchased this trip. I was very disappointed that I did not get to see them as that is one main reason I came to Cancun

Our pickup was a little late but the company was very responsive along the way. Once picked up from Cancun we had about a 30 minute ride to the area. It was very crowded and slightly disorganized. We had a lot of waiting which was disappointing but the activities made it worth it. The horseback riding was amazing, the horses were well trained and the trail was fun. Our group was allowed to split for those who wanted to go a little faster. The ATVs were so fun. The trails were awesome. We got incredible muddy tho so take that into consideration. The ziplining was good, and the cenote was fun. Each activity was about 30 minutes. I never got around to eating lunch so i can't comment on the food. So overall the activities were well worth the $99 even tho it was a little disorganized. I would recommend.

The tour is amazing and enjoyable. Angel, our tour guide, is outstanding. He is very passionate about his job and gave the best to let us enjoy every spot telling us a lot of Mexico history and street food taco is so delicious and you can not find them in the US . His English is pretty good. I would repeat this experience for sure. Unfortunately, Angel made a honest mistake to recommend us Mercado 28 market for our shopping at Cancun. We visited Mercado 28 two days later. We ended up of being ripped off $2,800.00 by scam artist seller at jewelry store name Venta de Artesanias Opalo. They sell us a fake and worthless jewelry that they outrageously overcharged us. MORONS!!!

Waiting for my upon my arrival, very friendly and helpful. Provided a delightful conversation on the way from Cancun airport to Playa del Carmen about how tourism was going in Mexico, a few tips on things to do and see. Jose’s English was excellent and even shared some of his experiences of traveling to the states.

What a great tour to see the original Cancun and taste some really good tacos. Cristian was our guide and he was fun and informative. Well worth the money
