What are people saying about Cancun

Tulum highlights tour, Cenote & Jungle Village pick up included

Audrey_R, Aug 2026

A true adventure close to PDC Mexico!

Worth the early start at 7:45 am, our mid August vacation meant it was not crowded and we had beautiful weather. You arrive via bus at the Tulum ruins in Jaguar park. Tip: bring a filled reusable water bottle, sunscreen and a floppy hat - we brought none of these and wished we did. Next you go via same bus ~20 mins to a local Mayan village where you learn Mayan phrases, make your own corn flour tortilla, drink fresh hibiscus juice and swim in the refreshing cenote. Felt straight out of a movie. Our guide “Lilly” was engaging, thorough, and passionate about the communities we toured. The owner was communicative via What’s App, informed us they were running late which was helpful. You pay the tour guide an extra $45 pp (2 ppl ~1600 pesos) at pick up. It’s in the description. Worth the hype.

Chichén Itzá Premier Tour with Cenote Xunáan, Valladolid & Lunch

Irina_J, Aug 2026

Great tour!

We weren’t impressed after reading the negative reviews, but we were very apprehensive about the tour until we actually tried it ourselves. It was great! If you don’t like vendors bothering you, no problem, just politely decline- no big deal, they will let you be. I don’t really understand the negative comments about it, we had no issues. Just be nice about it, they are just people trying to make a living. Bought some souvenirs. Food was awesome! Guide, Gregorio, was entertaining and knowledgeable. At least this provider pick us up from our hotel and brought us back, as promised. Another similar tour advertised pickup and drop off, but then asked us to go somewhere else - needless to say, we cancelled it and booked this one.

Tulum Guided Tour, Magical Cenote, Lagoon Snorkeling and Beachside Lunch

Alan_B, Aug 2026

Perfect

This trip was simply perfect. The cenote was beautiful, the lagoon swim amazing and Tulum was wonderful. Our guide Alejandro Herrera could not have been better for us. His knowledge, friendliness and humour all spot on. I’d highly recommend this trip and this company.

Cancun: Small-Group Akumal Turtle Snorkel & Cave Cenote Adventure

RICARDO_M, Aug 2026

Wow!

Wow! Great communication about pickup from our hotel & timely comfortable transport. Sent a clear list beforehand of what we should bring & what was provided. First, stop was the cenotes. Got there early enough that we had the closed cenote to our small group of 10. Gorgeous! Next, Akumal to see the sea turtles. We are always prepared to see no wildlife on trips, but we saw 6 sea turtles! Our guide, Lea, gave us great info for both spots & clearly communicated the rules to minimize the impact on the environment. And, because we had a mixed language group, she did this while flipping between English & French & made sure everyone was engaged & included. Cold bottled water and snacks were provided(which was very appreciated after all of the swimming). Would highly recommend.

Guided Tour to Chichén Itzá and Cenote and Valladolid with Lunch

Damian_T, Aug 2026

What a day!

Pick up on time and transfer to big coach seamless It’s a very long way on the coach at least 3 hours but Robert, Christian and team kept us entertained and informed on the Mayan culture Chichen Itzá was awesome and our guide amazing - it’s a must see The Cenote was also unbelievable (not cold!) and like watching TV All in all an amazing day but it did last 15 hours so be prepared

Cancun's Best: Catamaran to Isla Mujeres, Snorkeling & Drinks!

Danielle_S, Aug 2026

Highly Recommend!

Great experience. I highly recommend doing this one. It was absolutely perfect. First we got on the boat and took a short ride to the snorkeling spot. We had about 20 min in the water and saw some cool sculptures. It was the perfect amount of time. Then we hopped back on the boat and the drinks were flowing. We went to a beach club with a buffet which was mid but we weren’t there for the food anyway. We laid in hammocks in the water and went to the ice bar which was so nice to cool off in. We were there about an hour and a half. Then we got back in the boat and went to playa Norte. We went shopping and hit the beach. There for about 2 hours. Again, the right amount of time. Took a boat back to the marina. We made friends with other couples and it was a great time. We got to see everything that was on my Isla mujeres checklist and were well taken care of. Our tour guide, Giovani was awesome!! STAR 5 crew!

Rio Secreto Underground River Tour with Crystal Caves

Maria_C, Jul 2026

Is Heaven underground?

No words can describe what your eyes will see and what your soul will feel in that place!! You go for the tour and you come back full of thoughts and feelings!!! Jenifer, the tour lady, will give you with a very expressive way, all the knowledge you need about that phenomenon !!! And not only this. My friend who couldn’t walk very well, he received so much help from her!!! She is physically so strong!! She supported him , lifted and pulled him all the way through the exit and made it happen for him. Thank you Jenny!!!!!

Chichén Itzá Tour with Cenote Xunáan, Valladolid & Lunch

Diedre_D, Jun 2026

Worth the long day!!!

I cannot recommend this excursion enough! If you are on the fence about booking a Chichen Itza and cenote tour, just do it. It is a long day, but it is incredibly well-organized and worth every penny.Our tour guides, Gustavo and can't remove the other guides name, sorry,were fantastic—funny, engaging, and deeply knowledgeable about Mayan history. Swimming in the cenote was the absolute highlight of the trip. The water is stunningly clear. A huge thank you to the team for taking such great care of us. If you want to dive deep into Mayan culture and see one of the wonders of the world, this is the tour to book! I highly recommend bringing cash in case cards don't work!!

Chichen Itza Early Access & optional Hotel Pick up

Peter_R, May 2026

Chichen Itza Only

If you just want to see Chichen Itza and back to your hotel. This is the tour for you. Our guide Frank and our driver Jose was amazing. Picked is up 5am early in the morning and got us back in our hotel room by 230pm. Frank was very informative and Jose was a safe driver. Would recommend.

Cirque du Soleil JOYÀ Admission Tickets

Dan_H, Apr 2026

Our third viewing of Joya, obviously we enjoy it!

This was our third time to see Joya, and our friend's first time. We have enjoyed the performance every time and there have been a couple of new performances in each show. We do the preferred seats with appetizer package. The only caution I would add is not to order the bottled water, which was 20.00 US a bottle.

Cancun ATV Adventure, Interactive Bridges, Ziplines and Cenote

Tom_D, Mar 2026

Extreme Adventure 3/26

This was so much fun! We had the BEST tour guide, Kevin aka Moto Moto. He was hilarious and made all of the experiences (cenote, atv, and zipline ) an amazing adventure. The only warning I would have for travelers, is when you start out at this location, they try to upsell you with packages, and you don’t need them.. And bring your own water shoes if you have them cause that’s an extra $25. Davie our photographer was also wonderful and Ignacio the tequila master. But Moto Moto stole the show 🤩 ~~ Scarlett D and 4 bachelorette mamacitas 💜

Xel-Ha Tickets with Transportation included

Robert_C, Feb 2026

We enjoyed a great day of...

We enjoyed a great day of outdoor activities in this beautiful park setting. The food selection and quality was great, especially the dinner! Every employee is positive and service-oriented. I lost my prescription glasses and clip-on sunglasses. Your team found them quickly and gracefully.
