Top Playa del Carmen Day Trips - page 2

The shop at the very beginning was nice to get to know about customs, but the prices of everything are just too high. The Cenote is amazing. Beautiful, pleasant to swim in, stunning. Something that you will definitively won't see anywhere else. This particular cenote is really big. The stop at Valladolid is quite pointless. Chitchen Itzá doesn't need further introductions or selling. It's a must-see. About the guide, Ismael, great guy and he gave a lot of good insight about Mayan culture and language which we really liked, but he had two tendencies that were a bit annoying: 1. Every 3 words he would switch languages (english/spanish). It would have been better to just say the entire idea in one language, and then the other. If not, it sounds like an echo, specially if you speak both. 2. many guides we found in México are quite coddling towards the guests/customers, which is not something I personally like... I am an adult (doesn't seem to be Ismael's personal thing).

Amazing experience that I’d highly recommended. Isla Contoy is the gem of the trip, truly a tropical paradise. We skipped snorkeling during to winds and currents, which we didn’t mind bc it gave us more time to spend exploring Isla Mujeras. Kudos to Fernando, Diego, and the whole crew for making it a very special and memorable trip.

Perfecto was our guide who did a great job keeping us informed of the history of Chichen Itza and Mayan culture, giving us our siesta time in the van and making the overall experience efficient. The restaurant we went to was Reataurante Tio Monolo which also had crafted souvenirs and where you can get your mayan astrology paper. We also took a stop in Valladolid where we pretty much ate all the dessert you can possibly enjoy. This tour is certainly worth the money!

Although a long day of approximately 16 hours, the experience and tour guide were well worth it! Comfortable bus with water, soft drinks and beer included at each stop. Knowledgeable tour guide Alejandro that took the time to give historical answers to all our questions. Tulum and Coba were Mayan ruins in two very different locations on windy coast and inner forest. The ability to walk up the steps of Coba was a-mazing! Local linch and Mayan blessing was a lovely addition for the day. The cenoté was very relaxing and refreshing in the beauty of being totally underground and only our tour at the location. The stop in Playa del Carmen was a bit too peopley for me but was a short stop and the sorbet was yummy. Highly recommend the tour and to bring supper snacks in your day bag.

The research paid off and this was by far the best price for the experience we received. Lots of things to see and do. It felt a bit rushed at each place. The buffet was all you can eat so long as you can eat your fill in about a 20 minute period…including standing in the line. It almost felt too much included in the trip. But our guide Lalo was fantastic and he gave us the history and background of the places we were visiting to help bring our experience into a better context. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip.

Pick up from our hotel was 5:45. Got back to our hotel around 7pm. We had an amazing time. The tour guides were so patient and fun and the photographer helped to capture the best shots. Content became available by the next day. Good trip. Good vibes. The cenote swim was my personal favourite the water was so refreshing and cool.

I’m so glad I booked this experience instead of a different Tulum/cenote tour! I did a lot of research and it paid off. Jackie and Pedro were great. Jackie has so much knowledge about Mayan culture, even my teenagers were listening. Our group was the only one at the cenote and the tacos were amazing. Highly recommended.

We had a great time on this trip. We appreciated the balance of time to explore Tulum yourself, and the time spent with guide for background and history. The trip was well organized and well run. It would have been nice to know about the lockers and changing facilities at the Cenote in advance of the trip, as well as the lunch option on site for purchase. We would likely not have gotten the plus package with the small, over-priced boxed sandwich had we known there would be a local cuisine option on site
