12hrs+ Long trip but it was worth it. The lake was pretty and pinky. Also the crocodiles were cute. If u are someone who hate long trip in a van, it's def not for you.

Best Rio Largatos tour from Cancun!

winnesabbie, Jun 2025

I absolutely enjoyed every part of this tour. It was very organized and the tour guide constantly reaches out to you before and during the tour. I will highly recommend!

Loved the mangrove forest and animals, didn’t like the tour operator

Abhishek_D, Dec 2023

The boat ride through the mangrove trees to the Gulf of Mexico was the highlight of our trip. The guide was helpful and tried their best to make our experience memorable. The 3 stars are for that. Everything else was bad. The day before our experience, we were told our pickup would be at 6.10AM and we were asked to wait in the hotel lobby. We got to the lobby at 6.05. At 6.10 or so got a text to walk out of the lobby and wait for white bus. Which we did. Nobody came and a few mins later, got a text that we missed pickup because we weren’t at the pickup location on time. We tried to tell the tour operator that nobody came, even call them and have the bell boy speak with them, in case something was lost in translation. Didn’t pickup the phone and was more interested in assigning blame. Luckily the bus came a few mins later, probably was just stuck in traffic, and we started our tour. The first half of the day went into pooling tourists from cancun and playa del Carmen. We didn’t even get started towards las Coloradas till about 11-11.30 in the morning. The tour was okay, no efforts to raise the bar. The tour company seemed more of a transportation provider than a tour experience provider. The total tour time from cancun was over 12 hrs. Very tiring and in retrospect probably should have booked through a different operator

Response from Host, Jan 2024

Dear Customer: Thank you for your comments. We always ask to our customer to arrive early, Sometimes clients fall asleep, and they do not assist early in their pick up time. This is a shared tour, I recommend you to choose a private tour, I invite you to see our tour list Have a lovely day
