Our excursion to the Chacchoben Ruins through Costa Maya Experiences was the absolute highlight of our port day! Our guide, Octavio, was friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and gave us plenty of unhurried time to explore the ancient ruins. To top off an already fantastic tour, he brought us to an authentic local fruit stand and a food stand where Sr. Felix and Sra. Julia cooked us the best empanadas and tacos we've had in years. This was an incredible, authentic local experience at a fraction of the cost of the cruise line’s official excursion. Highly recommend booking with Costa Maya Experiences!

Dennis_S, Nov 2026

Great Massage In Costa Maya

The MAHA Massage is a great place to get a full body massage. Both my wife and I had a couple massage and both Ruby and Mari Cruz were very good. They were careful and professional The location near the beach overlooks the ocean with a nice light breeze coming through the window. We fund this very relaxing and the price was good as well. Will definitely visit the MAHA on our next trip to Costa Maya.

Bacalar – 7 Colors Lagoon Excursión Costa Maya

Daryl_M, Nov 2026

Bacalar Is Absolutely Breathtaking – A Must-Do Excursion!

This was truly an amazing experience! Bacalar’s Seven Colors Lagoon is one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. The different shades of blue and turquoise water are absolutely unreal! It honestly felt like being in paradise. Pictures simply do not do it justice. This is one of those places you have to see in person to truly appreciate its beauty! Our guide, Rafael, was fantastic! He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and made the entire experience even more enjoyable. The whole crew was absolutely amazing! Everyone was helpful, welcoming, and attentive. They communicated very well with us, especially when helping us find the meeting point, which made everything so easy and stress-free. The food was also delicious! We had tacos and burritos for lunch, along with fresh fruit, drinks, and plenty of snacks. Everything was great! The entire excursion was very well organized, from the communication before the tour to the experience itself. You can tell the crew genuinely cares about making sure everyone has a wonderful time. I highly recommend this excursion to anyone visiting Costa Maya. It was worth every minute, and I would absolutely do it again! If you’re considering it, don’t hesitate to book. A definite 10 out of 10!

Chacchoben & Bacalar Combo Excursion Costa Maya

Rachael_S, Oct 2026

Fantastic trip! Before...

Fantastic trip! Before the trip we were given great instructions to find our guide. We were quickly taken off to the Mayan ruins. We were lucky enough to be the only group on our tour and we arrived before all the other big tour groups so we were able to see the spider monkeys in the trees and get great photos. Francisco our guide was knowledgeable and informative. We then moved onto Bacalar and the 7 colours lagoon which was stunning. We were taken out on a very comfortable pontoon boat and were able to swim in the beautiful lagoon. Drinks and snacks were always available including beer and tequila if you wanted it! After the lagoon we went for some delicious tacos in a local restaurant. We loved the trip and were extremely well looked after. We would definitely recommend it to anyone.

Bacalar Lagoon 7 Colors Excursion from Costa Maya Cruise Port

Christy_B, Oct 2026

Best Day in Costa Maya

Loved this excursion. I was nervous about booking an excursion where it was over an hour away from the port, but the back to ship guarantee helped me decide to go ahead and go for it. Our guide and our driver were excellent. Joseline, our guide was with us the entire time.. from the car ride, the pontoon boat, the restaurant. The lagoon was beautiful and the whole family said it was worth the drive. The Pineapple- let’s just say one wasn’t enough, it was so good! One thing I wish I woulda known was that you cannot wear sunscreen in the lagoon, had I known that I would have covered up a little more as I was already burnt from the day before. The drive there and back went much quicker than I thought it would. I will say there is not a lot to see most of the drive, but we all took a little nap on the way back. The tacos that were also included were very good as well!

Authentic Beachfront Mexican Cooking Class Cafe Jaguar Costa Maya

Jon_W, Oct 2026

Perfect excursion

We had a wonderful time at this cooking class! Getting to the café was relatively easy. We shared a taxi with other visitors, so we only had to wait a couple of minutes for it to fill up. The process was simple, and it cost just $5 per person to get to the area. We made tacos al pastor with guacamole and pico de gallo, and everything was delicious! One of our favorite parts was learning about the history and traditions behind the food. The staff was incredible and welcoming. It made the experience feel personal and memorable rather than just going out for a meal. We highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Cozumel! We had a great time and encourage anyone interested in learning more about the owner's business and other experiences to check out their website as well.

Chacchoben Mayan Ruins & Bacalar Lagoon with Certified Guide

Fantastic Local Owners Tour

We had a great tour! The driver Edgar and the guide Romeo were fantastic. Super friendly and knowledgeable. We saw the ruins and a Mayan Expert provided so much information about the area and history. We then went on to Bacalar Lagoon where we had a very nice lunch and cocktails. The lagoon was refreshing for our afternoon swim. Kayaks were available but we didn’t use them. This is my second time using this tour group. We were in a small minivan with 17 people vs a massive bus that the cruise line will use.

This was great got to see a bit of the ruins and still had plenty of time at the lagoon. It was nice that it was a small group. Carlos and Huichi were great.

Costa Maya, snorkeling on the reef with fish, looking for turtles

The business was a little...

The business was a little hard to find but after that we had a great time!! Everyone was super friendly and helpful with our family. Water was a little choppy that day but they let us hang out for about 30 minutes to gauge the weather and even gave my daughter a delicious taco! Ended up just being the 3 of us on the boat so we basically got a private snorkeling adventure. Perfect way for my 7 year old to try snorkeling for the first time. Great value!! We had a wonderful time!!

CHACCHOBEN Ruins and BACALAR Lagoon Boat Excursion from Costa Maya

Joshua_I, Aug 2026

Tons of fun with a professional, transparent, and well organized team!

Everything was well arranged and the communication couldn't have been better. We were on Star of the Seas and unfortunately our debarkation was too early to both see the Chacchoben Ruins and do the Bacalar Lagoon Boat tour. We didn't realized this but the excursion group had the foresight to check and let us know the day before that they felt they only had time to do the Bacalar Lagoon Boat tour and confidently get us back in time. They graciously made the offer that we could cancel the excursion altogether and get a full refund or do just the boat tour and get a partial refund; we opted for the latter. Even with just half the anticipated experience, it was still a great time on the water with a delicious lunch at the end. We even stopped on the way and got fresh pineapple! The team was very professional, transparent, and well organized which made everything worry free and tons of fun. I know my daughters had fun and we'd gladly do an excursion with this group again!

Great tour to give you the best of local history and fun activity

This is a great tour that gives you a chance to learn about and see parts of ancient culture, while also giving you the opportunity for swimming and kayaking in a pristine lagoon! We are a family with 3-thirteen year olds and they loved the tour. Elliot was our guide and he was amazing, a wealth of knowledge and a friendly, awesome person!

Mixing Caribbean shores with ancient Maya culture, Costa Maya offers equal opportunities for sightseeing and soaking up the sun. Costa Maya excursions transport you deep into the jungle to the 3,000-year-old Chacchoben Ruins to learn about one of the Maya empire’s most important ceremonial centers. Other tours whisk you into the water at the Bacalar Lagoon—known as the Lake of Seven Colors, thanks to its iridescent hues—and luxury beach clubs where you can enjoy massages and mojitos by the Caribbean Sea.
