Day on the ocean

Terri_T, Dec 2025

The time of departure for our excursion was scheduled for 10:30. The dock area was full of passengers for multiple vessels- it was very disorganized and we didn't board until 11:15. Once on board we were packed/crowded like sardines- there was NO room to move, this company oversells to increase their revenue but created an uncomfortable passenger experience. People were seated where you needed to walk- it was not good. When it was time to snorkel- we were only provided a face mask- NO air tube nor flippers. I've snorkeled many times previously and other tour companies provided an air tube and flippers. The first stop at the ZaZa beach club- bathrooms were unkempt, buffet lunch was barely edible- lettuce, tomato, rice, beans - they ran out of chicken, the soup was watery. Beverages were watered down and tasted horrible. Because we were delayed in departing the dock- we had less time at our 2nd stop, Playa Mujeres. The crew members on the tour were pleasant. The one taking pictures was annoying b.c he continually asked passengers to move out of the way for photos- when the catamaran was already overcrowded and no place to sit.

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We’re sorry to hear that several parts of the tour did not meet your expectations, especially the boarding delay, crowding on the catamaran, and your experience at the lunch stop. We understand how delays at the dock can impact the full schedule, and we regret that it reduced the time at the second stop. We also take your comments seriously regarding passenger capacity, snorkeling gear expectations, and the cleanliness and food quality at the beach club. This is not the experience we aim to provide. We appreciate your note that the crew was pleasant, and your feedback has been noted for review with our operations team to improve organization, comfort, and overall service standards moving forward. — Boat Trips Club Team

Nice trip for a day!

Nice boat and great staff. Buffet lunch was good. Island was beautiful. I would skip the upsell while on the boat for golf cart tour and just rent a half cart on the island if you want to save some money.

Thank you so much for your amazing review!

Thank you for your amazing review!

They shove so many people...

Melissa_F, Jul 2025

They shove so many people on the boat you can’t move around. We had 57 people on our catamaran. They picked us up from our hotel at 8:30 am and we didn’t get back until 7:30 pm. At the marina it was very unorganized and no one really telling you what to do. We boarded the boat at 10:30 am. We got to Isla at noon and had 2 hours to explore. We got back on the boat and they took us to the middle of the island for our “lunch” buffet at 3 pm. Worst food I have ever had. We got back on the boat at 4 and they took us to the snorkeling spot. Back on the boat then back to the marina. If you book this know that it’s a LONG day with no food until 3 pm so bring snacks. The boat crew were great and very attentive with drinks. My recommendation is to just take the ferry over to Isla and explore yourself.
