Top Playa del Carmen Day Trips - page 6

This was the perfect day trip we chose for our anniversary. Our guides Camas and Carlos were great and made us feel welcomed from the moment we entered their van. Camas knew history of the areas and fun details and threw in the best humor. He took great care of us. They picked us up and dropped us off at our resort and it was great. The sea turtles were awesome to experience so close, two came up right in front of us! Talum was really awesome to see too, but the favorite was most definitely the cenotes. Absolutely breathtaking. If we ever come back, we will for sure be doing another cenotes tour! Maybe even doing the scuba experience next time! The entire cenotes park was such a fun vibe, they provided us lunch which the best food we have had our entire trip, including our resorts restaurants! Highly highly recommended! Thanks so much guys!

The whole trip was nice. The guide gives you a lot of info about the Maya culture. I bought a maya horoscope since it was beautiful but don't buy anything else at the first store you stop by because you will find everything at a fraction of the cost at the Chichen site. Our guide and driver, Saul and Henry, were very nice, patient, and helpful.

Rio Secreto was not as cold as we expected, and we have a 8 year old and a 12 year old went with us. We would do it again with a different underground section. Tulum is good, but different from 16 years ago when we visited for the first time. Facilities are good

I had a good experience with this tour. It took about an hour boat ride to get to Contoy Island from the meeting point (which is about 20 minutes away from downtown Cancun but the pick up was included and on time) and it's a beautiful unspoiled island with white sand and shallow clean water. We spent about 3 hours there: one hour to relax, one hour for a barbecue lunch and another hour for an optional tour of the island (I was the only one in the group to go for it though) which was nice. Then there was some snorkeling which I skipped because I thought the sea wasn't calm enough and I didn't want to struggle as I had never done snorkeling before. We then headed to Mujeres Island, which was very very crowded and I can't say I enjoyed it, but we were there for only an hour which was long enough to still get a taste of the island. The tour leads were very friendly and entertained us with music and dances on the boat. Many drinks were available. The only thing I didn't like very much is that once we got back to the meeting point in Cancun (at about 4pm), we had to wait almost 45 minutes before we could get on the vehicle to be dropped off at the hotel, as the tour guides were asking everyone to write reviews on the company's app using their phone. I was really tired at that point, and to be honest I just wanted to go back to the hotel instead of waiting for 45 minutes for everyone to write their reviews. I asked to write the reviews later on (I always prefer taking a few days before writing a review, just to let the experience sink in without the emotion of the moment) and I was told I had to it there, I felt a bit forced and I thought it was unnecessary. Still a good experience though, which I recommend.

Fabio was an amazing guide and we loved how knowledgeable he is. We had the cenotes to ourselves which was absolutely magical! We were able to take our time in each and have opportunities to take photos throughout. The meal afterwards was delicious and it was a highlight of our trip. Just book with Fabio and have an amazing time!

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.

This was truly such a great activity! I went to Mexico solo and loved having my pictures taken for me. The workers were incredibly friendly and patient. We got our pictures about 24 hours after the excursion ended and I was sent 250+ pictures to sort through! Food at the beach club was great as well.

Tour was excellent. The driver and Cristian the tour guide was hilarious and great knows a lot of language. He was very enthusiastic with sharing us a lot of information which goes to show how much he loves his job. We haven’t encountered any scam like what I read from other reviews. All I can say is if your offered something you don’t like learn to say no. Also tip generously to the locals you meet as tourism is mostly their way of living and their eager to share their culture to tourists. There was no wasted time on this tour I’m glad the group we joined were punctual as there was little to no delay to the next spot to go to. We started in Villadolid 30 mins. Chichen Itza 2 hrs, Cenote Ik kil 1 hr and Cenote Suytun 1hr. With travel from Cancun and back around 2.5 hrs. Food buffet was decent. Overall it was a tour well spent. Highly recommend this one for sure!
