The crew did a great job explaining and helping us all. We did the upgrade once we got there to lower the amount of people on our boat and it was the right move! The water was a little choppy for snorkeling but still a fun experience. We loved the private beach club and the lunch was awesome.

We were advised by the captain of the boat that there is a federal regulation against people, snorkeling if they are younger than 10 years old or older than 60 years old. Ourselves included, there were several groups on the boat that just did not know about this up until the point when it was time for everybody to start snorkeling. This wasn’t the snorkeling company’s fault, I don’t think. Viator just didn’t mention it at any point in the booking process. Also, you have to bring your own towels. If you don’t bring your own towels, they are happy to sell you towels for $30-$40 apiece. When we went to the island, we were among five or six other boats that were there. Not a huge deal, the facilities did not seem overwhelmed. However, the dock clearly was. They did not have a system for figuring out how to get boats loaded and unloaded when only three boats could be docked at a time when there were six boats worth of people ready to go and come. No exaggeration, we watched this process take place for about 25 to 30 minutes before we were able to get back on our boat in order to leave. Not a great feeling when you’ve spent six hours in the sun with kids, especially after dealing with all of the other disorganizations/miscommunications that arose. In general, the captain and the crew were pretty good. They definitely kept us lightened up with drinks.

Response from Host, Feb 2025

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We genuinely appreciate your feedback and are sorry to hear about the miscommunications you encountered during your trip. We understand that the federal regulation regarding age limits for snorkeling was an unexpected surprise for you, and we agree that this should have been communicated earlier. It’s great to hear that the captain and crew helped maintain a lighthearted atmosphere and we’ll continue to ensure our team brings that positive energy to every trip. We’ll certainly take your points into consideration as we work to improve our services, and hope we’ll have the chance to welcome you back for a smoother experience in the future.

The crew were very freindly and kept up the supply of drinks. The food was good. All in all a great experience.

Loved this experience!

Andrea_C, Sep 2024

This catamaran was so much fun! Highly recommend. So many alcoholic beverages and so many pitchers of beer going around the entire time. Good music! Snorkeling was mid & didn’t see too much but the tour around Isla Mujeres was so nice. I will say didn’t enjoy getting bombarded by so many islanders trying to sell you so many things, I understand this how they make a living but very unnecessarily aggressive. Buffet style food was included and it was delicious!

Bad Experience

Krystal_B, Jul 2022

I wouldn’t recommend this excursion to anyone. We were a large group of 24 and we sailed on Antonio. I’ve been on several boat excursion and this was the worst by far. The music was not catering to the audience so our ride was boring! The entire experience was a sales promotion. They tried to upsell our Beach Club experience. Then they sold us pictures and golf carts on the boat. The golf cart ride was supposed to be a tour but we only made one ten minute stop and the returned back the club. Where we were told to go to the beach while we wait for the boat to return. It was an hour of just waiting and sitting in the hot sun. When we finally got over to Negra Pearla (Isla Mujeres) we were told we only had 40 minutes to return to the boat. I was extremely disappointed and somewhat annoyed.

Response from Host, Jul 2022

We are very sorry the Sailing experience did not meet your standards. Our main purporse at The Travel Experience Group is to provide an amazing Experience, we apologize for failing to do so. Tour upgradability should not get in the way of your enjoyment, any additional Services you may acquire directly on the Cruise are designed to enhance your experience, not hinder your amusement. We are very sad to read you were dissapointed and somewhat annoyed by the end of the Tour, that is far from the emotions we strive to create on our Experiences. We hope you still had an amazing time in our beautiful destination and you come back to us soon! Until next time, warm regards The Travel Experience Group

Catamaran boat crew member gave WRONG info!

Francine_R, Mar 2022

Aside from the 10 fun college folks, #1 the allotment of only 20 min. to snorkle ( big part of trip " NOT") & being sheep-herded close to 9 other 10- plus each groups like cattle AND then upon making a stop.........,#2 a crew member directed me to some golf carts & people on the carts which were there for some other group of snorklers..... #3 which took me to a wrong restaurant who wanted to charge me 69.00 For lunch; thank goodness I drove the cart away & found a member of the same catamaran company who took me under his wing & to the right place for lunch where #4 I waited for 1 1/2 hrs alone until my group later arrived. Too big a part of my paid-for excursion was filled with frustration, stress & UPSET! Some refund is due & fairly in order here!!!!! I am looking forward to reviewing Viator's activity on social media because of all of the above. Francine Routhier

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Hope to see you again to provide you a better experience. The Cancun Travel Experience Team

Bad experience

Diego_M, Mar 2022

Hi, I paid a tour to Isla mujeres with pick up and drop off included from my hotel. Lunch buffet and alcohol beverage where included supposedly. When we get at the port, they told us the only were included alcohol beverages on board but no at the buffet. So we asked and they upgrade us for 9$ dollars each. We did 2 upgraded, we were 3 people but my dad is diabetic so he doesn't drink. At the island when it was lunch time, it was only water available, they wouldn't sell us a soda. They request $25 extras in order to get a diet soda for my dad. I tried to get a soda from my "all inclusive" bar acces and they scream at me that I couldn't share and he needed to pay the $25 dollars. That he only could get water. So after paying almost $400 for the 3 of us, he wasn't entitled to a miserable soda. Unbelievable. Beside that, they cancel the snorkeling activity due "inclement weather" but other boat with tours when to do it anyways because was sunny and beautiful (not rain at all). Also, they drop you on a part of the island the has the worst beach, they charge you another 40$ to get into a golf cart to get to the best beach which is playa Norte. Really uncomfortable experience. I do speak Spanish so it wasn't an misunderstanding. It was just them trying to get advantage of tourist like every place but I least they should provide what they offer.

Response from Host, Apr 2022

Dear Diego_M Thank you for taking the time to review our Isla Mujeres Catamaran Sailing Experience with Lunch & Open Bar experience. We take your feedback very seriously. We are very sorry to learn your Experience was not up to your expectations, we contacted our Local Provider in order to confirm this situation with them. As you say, getting the upgrade gave two of you access to the Open Bar at the club. Regardless of that complimentary soft drinks are usually given to our guests with the Standard Experience. We deeply apologize for the inconvenience this caused. In regards of the Snorkeling portion, if the Captian and their Staff deems the activity potentialy dangerous, they have the Ultimate Authority to cancel it. Lastly, Golf Cart rental options are available for all guests when we make dock at the Beach Club, this is by no means an attempt to take advantage of anyone, we only aim to provide our guests options to enjoy themselves as they may please. Nevertheless, we are very sorry this was not the Experience you expected. We would like to make it up to you if you ever visit our beautiful destination again. We'll be more than glad to take care of you once more. Until next time, warm regards. The Travel Experience Group

Swimming in the warm waters snorkeling made the trip worthy. The water of the sea is memorizing. Our guide Leonardo from the Luv Cat catamaran was fun and very friendly.

Lex, Mar 2021

It was great I just wouldn't recommend going out the night before I was hung over. But grace is amazing and the whole ride is amazing! More then I expected! Buffet wasn't the best tho.
