Top Cancun Private Sightseeing Tours - page 7

This tour has very nice pace and filled with activities. The guide Victor is amazing and very knowledgeable about the Maya history. The Chichén Itzá is very worth the visit. It’s very crowded when we visited there but Victor was able to take us through the crowds smoothly. He even led us to a less crowded restroom! The Cenote Saamal was very crowded too. The lunch buffet there has lots of selections but food was average. The Valladolid city center is nice to visit.

We joined the catamaran tour to Isla Mujeres and it was absolutely fantastic. Everything was very well organized from start to finish. The staff, led by Javier, were super friendly, fun, and always made sure everyone was having a great time. With party music, open bar and a delicious buffet, the latin atmosphere on board was relaxed and full of energy. The snorkeling was unforgettable, crystal clear water, lots of colorful fish and a stunning view of the reef. The sea was simply breathtaking.

This event was as advertised for the most part and met our expectations. Our boat was mostly Spanish speaking which made it a little difficult for us to keep up with everything going on but our guide did a great job of including everyone and keeping the energy levels high. Be aware that the only tequila brand we had available was Jose Cuervo and all the other drinks were canned beverages. They were fine not nothing special or unique.

Its kind of a rush to chase whalesharks but it yields back your expectations and the guides put on real effort for you to see these amazing creature as many times as you can. Even if they dont escape your presence, they swim pretty fast and outpace you in a blink. If you are gonna do it with your toddler, mine was 5 years old, do it, make him or her see them. Take medication if you tend to be seasick because the boat really sways during the chase and wait. Good luck!

We were picked up right from our hotel and had about a 15 minute ride to the marina. The tour guide made us take Dramamine as soon as we got into the vehicle which was a little off putting since we could not read the label on the pills she gave us. Even after learning what it was, neither of us get sea sick to feel the need to take it. At the marina we got a good briefing on what to expect for the course of the day. We were given the option for wet suits which, we lucked out on, but they did not have enough for everyone. We also had to pay to rent these which was not included in the excursion cost. Definitely worth having though! The ride out was about an hour long. It was very pretty. We had a perfect day with almost no clouds. Obviously the ocean was very choppy for our little boat, but it made it very exhilarating and exciting to ride out there. Our boat was the last one to leave, but that was nice because the rest of the boats already found the pod of whales! We were able to see them right as soon as we sailed to meet everyone else. We jumped in the water in groups of two. My friend and I got to jump in third so we could see others go first which I do think is very beneficial. You had as much time to swim next to the whale shark as long as you were able to keep up. Being able to swim in the ocean is definitely a plus here. The instructors filmed us jumping in into the whale shark which really illustrated our journey as a whole. The instructors were so agile and organized with keeping a system to make sure we all got a fair amount of time and if we wanted to jump in a third time, we had the option to do so! After our swim, we went and did snorkeling, which I don’t know was completely necessary. It was cool and there was a lot to see, but it made for a long day. I think we could’ve just been fine. Going to the beach and eating the ceviche they made. We were also offered Coca-Cola and water! Absolutely think everybody should try this! It was the coolest experience!

We had an amazing time! Highly recommend! They took us wherever we wanted to go and made us fun cocktails the entire time. There were 8 of us total plus the 3 crew members and we had plenty of room, much better than a public boat tour! Do not hesitate to book this tour!

Overall this excursion was fun and family friendly. If you are an adrenaline junky then this may not be for you. It was spaced out well, fun for the family, and the tequila tasting & backstory was interesting. Only suggestion I have is I wish they would have kept my family together more and got pictures of us as a whole family especially when selling the package of pictures. We bought them all but would have liked more of all of us together.

Best best value for money EVER! We had an absolute blast. Just make sure you come thru early morning to enjoy the full day with all the activities the park has to offer. The cultural show in the evening is amazing! It is such a wonderful visual simulation of Mexico’s origins and history. You can’t miss out on a full day and evening visit to this amazing park and everything it has to offer. Just amazing!
