Do not go on this trip if you have kids under 12 years old. My 9 year old (who is a strong swimmer and snorkeled in open water just the day before) was heartbroken when we got to the snorkeling stop and they said she couldn't go because the minimum is 12 for "insurance reasons." Seeing her cry and be upset is not my idea of a good time on vacation. THIS AGE MINIMUM WAS NOT COMMUNICATED ON THE TOUR DESCRIPTION, IN ANY OF THE EMAILS, OR ANYWHERE ON THE WEBSITE. There were a few nice aspects of the trip, the water is beautiful and so is Isla Contoy. The stop at Isla Mujeres was ok, but kind of a waste at only one hour. AND it was kind of shady how the "meetup" spot on the island happened to be some guy's diamond shop. Convenient! LOL. Also, a minor point but the boat in the picture for this trip is not the one you take - it's much bigger and there are a TON of people along. Sailing home from the island was extremely slow - 2 hours. We didn't pull into the dock until 6:20 pm. Bottom line, would I go back to Isla Contoy? Yes but NOT on this tour.

Hello Miss Amy, We regret that it was not what you would have wanted, due to security policies, depending on how the sea is, they may or may not allow children under 12 years of age to snorkel, since the group goes at different rhythm. In your tour that you do with us we will offer you the next discount

Not a good experience overall

Erin_S, Aug 2022

Despite having assurance that children 6 years old and up could snorkel, they would not allow my 8 year old or 11 year old snorkel. Further, they ran out of masks and many of the fins were broken. Isla Contoy was beautiful.

Response from Host, Nov 2022

Hello Miss Erin, We are sorry for the situation that happened, and we offer you a great apology, in addition to offering you a discount on your next tour that you book with us, thanks to your comment we were able to renew snorkel equipment so that the same thing does not happen in the future

Cobraron el importe y aun asi cancelaron

Isauro_R, Jul 2023

Nos cancelaron el paseo por sobre venta hicieron el cobro y no han hecho el rembolso todavia y estamos en espera

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Hola Sr. Isauro, Reservo un día antes de la actividad por eso la plataforma le cobra, nosotros no recibimos el dinero (somos el tour operador). Se inicio el reembolso el día del tour, ya el regreso de su dinero a su cuenta depende de su banco y es de 5 a 7 días hábiles. Esperamos que la próxima vez pueda hacer una actividad con nosotros, como recomendación reserve con 2 o 3 días de anticipación para asegurar los espacios (esto aplica para tours de alta demanda).

Preciosa experiencia para conocer Isla Contoy e Isla mujeres

Carmen_V, Oct 2022

El viaje estuvo muy bien y ameno. Los tripulantes eran muy majos y atentos. Hay barra libre durante el trayecto. La comida fue abundante (buffet) y rica, aunque un poco tarde (a las 3). El snorkel podria haber sido más tiempo, ya que sólo estuvimos 20min y no pudimos ver mucho. Por lo demás todo genial.

Response from Host, Nov 2022

Hola Srta. Carmen, Muchas gracias por sus comentarios, tomaremos en cuenta su sugerencia para poder hacer más completo el tour, esperamos que vuelva pronto.
