Top Playa del Carmen Cruises & Sailing

Mary was an excellent guide and shared lots of great information. There was time to roam around the ruins after she covered history, about 30-40 minutes at the cenote, and then time with Maya descendants to taste hibiscus tea, corn tortillas, and then some tequila on our way out. The bus was comfortable, and there was cold water and a small snack provided. The cenote area has changing rooms and showers, and I’d recommend bringing some pesos for the ladies doing the demonstrations.

It’s a long day but totally worth it. It’s usually very hot so bring plenty of water and snacks. We also brought an umbrella to have some refuge from the sun. Our guide was very kind, funny and informational. Our favorite stop was lunch to help support the locals business. The food was amazing.

I booked this trip for my partners birthday and it was fantastic. The pick up and drop off went smoothly, we got some amazing pictures of the sunset, the food and drink provided was great and the staff were brilliant and couldn't do enough for you. I would highly recommend.

This is for history lovers. I learned s lot about the Mayan history and culture. Moo wss so knowledgeable. It was very interesting.. The Cenotes are a natural wonder. The visit there is short but good you see. 5th Avenue in Tulum is for the tourist lover.

Fernando was a great guide, multi-lingual, interactive, entertaining and took multiple pictures along the way to capture this memorable experience for his guests. The ride was fun and we especially enjoyed our visit to the Cenote where we learned about its history and jumped into the water and swam. Everyone had a wonderful experience 😎, well done!!

Friendly crew and a very pleasant, well-organized sail. Even though it was rainy when we boarded, which forced a slight delay in our sailing, the crew made sure we made the most of the experience. The food was good, music pleasant, and the drinks well made. There also seemed to be plenty of room for everyone to spread out. Had a great time!

This was such an exciting trip! It was our first main tour of a few we did in our 9 day holiday at Playa Del Carmen, Mexico, and it certainly set the bar high. First we went out of a boat with our guides and a group of about 15 others to go snorkelling on the second biggest reef in the world! We were given a floatation jacket, snorkel and mask, and flippers, and then once out at sea (maybe a 10 minute boat ride) we jumped off the edge of the boat to explore the beautiful under sea world of the reef and some amazing sea creatures. We saw plenty of fish, a turtle, a few rays and even a barracuda! There was a fair bit of swimming required, although the guide who lead us did have a life ring on a rope, if needed. We swam for about 1 hour and 20 minutes, and to be fair, I was exhausted by the end, being a confident but less than fit swimmer. We were never that far from the boat, but certainly quite a way out to sea, so no sloping off to the beach for a rest. Bear this in mind if you are not the most confident swimmer - let them know before the swimming begins! I have snorkelled before but not for a couple of decades. My wildlife loving partner had never snorkelled before and he absolutely loved this experience, as I had hoped he would! We then got back on the boat via a ladder and returned to the harbour at Puerto Morelos, just had time for a quick coffee and slice of cake to recharge my energy levels (these were included in the price), ready for our next adventure at Rio Secreto underground river and nature reserve. For me, this was the most exciting part of the day. We donned wet suits and hard hats with a head lamp on, and water shoes (take your own if you have them) and our wonderful guide, Diago, took us first to meet a shaman for a blessing for our journey, and then we went down into he cave complex amongst the most incredible stalactites and stalacmites, wading through the waters of the underground cave. If you have swum in a cenote, which we did in a subsequent trip, this is different as you have to walk in a line along the river, in and out of small lakes and streams and tunnels underground, lit only by head torches - it was incredibly atmospheric! Diago made it really fun and also paid attention to our safety, and we had 2 other guides with us - a photographer and a second guide to make sure we were all ok. There were some tight spaces to navigate, rocks to climb over, and lots of steps up and down under the water, which Diago lit with his torch under the water so it was easier to find my footing. He is clearly really passionate about caving, and his joy was infectious - rarely have I had so much fun, it was like being a child all over again! At one point we all turned our torches off and were in absolute pitch blackness for a few seconds - truly breathtaking! Honestly, if you want to have an adventure, give this trip a try, but be aware that you need to be relatively able bodied to really enjoy the underground river as once you're in, you need to keep going through the cave system with your group. That said it was enormous fun and I wouldn't have missed it for the world. Thank you Diago for making it such a special experience.

This was a great experience! The crew members provided excellent customer service! My cousin’s skirt blew into the water and one of the crew members jumped in and retrieved it for her….They also provided beverages and prepared a good lunch that was very fresh and well made. Although the weather was choppy, they sailed us to a beautiful cove area that allowed us to swim and party with our own music using their bluetooth system. Everything was well kept and clean. I definitely recommend this team and private yacht!
