I absolutely LOVED this activity! The speedboat was fun and we were able to drive very fast! Snorkeling was pretty cool too. Seen a lot of different fish and the water felt AMAZING! Perfect activity for photo opportunities! Would definitely do this again!

We had a lot of fun on the speedboat. The boat goes pretty fast and Luis our guide was also excellent. We went snorkeling in some great water and saw lots of underwater life and some of the sunken artifacts that have been placed on the ocean floor.

We had an amazing time on the speedboat and snorkeling tour, and our guide Jorge made the entire experience unforgettable! From start to finish, he was professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area. He made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable, especially during the snorkeling portion, and even pointed out some cool marine life we would have missed on our own. The speedboat ride itself was a blast — fast, fun, and with incredible views. The snorkeling spot was beautiful, with clear water and plenty of fish. Jorge took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure we had all the gear we needed. This tour was a highlight of our trip, and Jorge was a huge part of why it was so great. Highly recommend this experience — ask for Jorge if you can!

Micah_M, Aug 2026
Both snorkel and speed boat were super fun. Came with a free massage at the beginning as well and the tequila tasting was great! Due to some construction and traffic our group was gonna be a bit late. However, when calling ahead they said we were all good and they’d wait. For the dock fee we could pay with both cash and card which was appreciated because, the description said only cash. With shared boat, both riders had the opportunity to drive as well!

Great great trip!

You'll have a great time (thank you Roy!)

Kristina_S, Aug 2026
Roy was our guide and the just the best. Chose to share a fun personality, kept the group safe, and made sure everyone had what they needed AND had fun. Not an easy task. The boats were zippy and fun, the mangroves revealed a natural aviary, and the reef was full of variegated water flora and fauna!

Drive the boat

Krystle_F, Aug 2026
Make sure you bring a bag for you stuff also make sure to stay calm while snorkeling breath out your mouth because that salt water get you

Everything went as...

Alexandre_A, Aug 2026
Everything went as planned. Very organized! The chek in was easy, the instructions very clear and the snorkeling was incredible.

Jimmy is the best

Angee_S, Aug 2026
I came to Cancun in 2024 for a 25th wedding anniversary and found this tour on viator. I made a group of about 12 people go with me. Afterwards, they could not stop talking about how exciting and fun the tour was. Jimmy was my tour guide. I just so happen to come back this year for my sister's 20th wedding anniversary and told them, WE HAVE to do the jungle speedboat tour! It just so happens, I got Jimmy as a guide again! Jimmy is the BEST. I'm not the best swimmer, but I felt totally safe snorkeling with Jimmy's patience and guidance. I give this tour and Jimmy a 1000/10!

Well worth it

Vianna_W, Aug 2026
The experience was well worth it. Our tour guide Carlos was very informative and very patient. I don’t snorkel but I had friends that did and really enjoyed it. Would definitely recommend this tour. I would book again

Easy excursion with kids

Amanda_C, Aug 2026
First time driving a boat so was nervous at first but it was very easy to handle. They explained everything nicely. Took my 5 year old and everything went great

Great experience

Super cool!

Charlene_L, Jul 2026
It’s great fun. We’ve done these before in Mazatlan so when we saw them here we signed up right away on Viator while planning our trip so they wouldn’t sell out. We highly recommend this activity to anyone who doesn’t get sea sick in small boats, doesn’t drive like an idiot & can follow the safety rules. They even took drone footage of us as we departed the dock area & offered it to us at a reasonable price at the end! Super cool!

More than better than...

Span_L, Jul 2026
More than better than expected. The snorkeling trail was new and the speed boat was fast! Great time! I believe Carlos was our guide.

Fantastic day!!

Lorin_F, Jun 2026
Such a great excursion! Our guide, Carlos, was so much fun, the mini speedboats are a really fun way to see the mangroves en route to an excellent snorkeling experience! Don’t be in a hurry to leave the marina after, take some time to enjoy the free Tequila tasting at the end, and check out the snack bar before you call your taxi! Food was excellent! Our whole family gave this trip 10/10 stars….was a great day in Cancun!! (Almost forgot…the drone videos and family pictures from their photographer turned out great!!! )

Fun Fun Fun!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Eddie_K, Jun 2026

Melissa_G, Jun 2026

Boating tour in Cancun.

Larisa_P, May 2026
So much fun! The boats were cute and the tour in the mangroves, harbor, and the sea was fantastic! We also loved the snorkeling tour around the reef and statues. We saw lots of fish, sea fans, and corals. The water was calm and warm and at a pleasant pace. Our guide, Jimmy, was great!

The perfect poolside break for some adventure and fun!

Kelly_L, May 2026
My husband and I were looking for a short break from laying around our resort's pool. We wanted a little adventure, a little culture, a little scenery...but not a long car ride or all day activity. This checked all the boxes. Quick easy Uber ride to the meeting point from our hotel, easy clear check in, WONDERFUL time with Carlos! He made us laugh, he showed us awesome snorkeling (we saw a huge Eagle Ray! and overall the snorkeling was the best of our many trips to Cancun) and while we were not first timers, he made sure the others in our small group always felt safe and prepared. The boat ride is fun, I felt like I was leading the Disneyland jungle cruise! Yes they try to offer you upgrades at checkout like Tequila and a photo package and a massage, but they don't pressure you at all, a simple no is sufficient. We did purchase the photos because they were great and reasonable, and we are going back for a massage today because the location and cost is great! One of my favorite Cancun excursions yet, I hope you go, I hope you get Carlos as a guide, and I hope you have as great a time as we did!

Roy was the man! We loved this experience.

Bryan_A, May 2026
What an experience. We were newbies with snorkeling and whatnots but Roy was an all star. We had a small group, which I like, to go snorkeling and he led my wife and another guest around while I did my own snorkeling around the bay. Thanks Roy! If you get him on this tour you will have a great experience! 5++ stars! We will definitely book this experience again!

Exceptional way to go to a reef for snorkeling

Robin_Z, Apr 2026
This was one of the best ways I ever went to a reef for snorkeling. The speedboat ride was a blast and the coral reef was really nice, and the sculptures under the water were amazing. Our guide Car.os was one of the best tour guides I had using Viator.

Best day ever!

Carlos made this a memorable experience for our family. Our 9 year old and 13 year old had an amazing time on the boats and saw some awesome fish snorkeling. Highly recommend them for a safe and well organized tour.

Cancún fun

Great time with Carlos!

Michelle_K, Mar 2026
Carlos waa great! We had a wonderful time. Felt very safe and well guided throughout the trip. He made sure to check in with us constantly to see if we were OK while snorkeling. Boating was so much fun and he led us well, despite being a larger group. We would highly recommend!

Shannon_F, Mar 2026
Our guide Jimmy was great! We got to see a ton of fish while we were snorkeling and had a fantastic time driving the boat. Be prepared for parking to be very limited.

Great Value and Great Experience

Brian_A, Mar 2026
This is my 3rd time doing this tour but this time brought my 16yr old and 6yr old. Fun boat ride and saw a stingray, puffer fish, and a whole bunch of other things. This is a very cost-effective tour for all.
