Misleading on how many people are actually on this tour!

Collins_G, Jun 2024

I would rate 3 stars, but I need to rate lower because of the misleading tour info that says max 20 people. This tour had 40+ on it. The amount of people meant many unnecessary stops between our destination and pick up / drop off. Be up front with what your tour offers. The boat portion of the tour did have a max of 20 people. Also, the cenote we went to was nothing special. No snorkeling, no cool underground cenote feel, just a glorified open air small lake. I would highly recommend the tour company update their tour info with the correct amount of people on the tour and choose a new cenote to take the tour too.

A long but really fun day!

Communication with tour provider was good before who allowed for pick-up in Tulum. Explained things about the day well in English despite most of the tour members being Spanish. Good variation of activities provided during the day (cenote, beach club, boat tour etc). Enough time given at each. Good food for breakfast and lunch which was included. Had a great day overall despite it being a long bus ride.
