Great way to learn the culture - Tony & Martin were prompt, friendly and very professional! They were extremely kind and very knowledgeable! Tony knows his country’s history and tells great stories about the culture and how Cancun came about! Both gentlemen were courteous and funny! Took a trip for my daughter’s 16th birthday which she shares a birthday with my sister. All three of us enjoyed the tour! Definitely recommend

Great experience - Great experience our tour guy was so much fun and funny. Although we didn’t have the roof top bus the well air conditioned bus they used for the tour still worked out great.

Ok City tour - Our tour guide and driver were fantastic however the tour itself was not what we were looking for. We did get to see nice resort properties on the beach. We were looking for an actual city tour of the people that reside there and tour of actual malls. We visited two of the same little strip malls selling the same merchandise. One more over priced than the other. Was nice to get off the resort but we would pass if we knew what we now know. Everyone have different expectations sadly this didn't fit our criteria.

Excellent Guide and Transportation - Our guide was excellent and very fun. We enjoyed the music on the bus and he was very knowledgeable about the area. We loved that they gave us water and refreshments for our ride since it was very hot! We weren't very impressed by the contents of the tour itself. All locations were huge tourist traps. And I'm aware what Cancun is but, I'm sure there are many other markets not as touristy as what we visited.

A bus tour with over 2 hours of shopping for overpriced souveniers - This was not my first Cancun tour which is probably why my expectations were high for what I would have like my family to experience. I won't list out all of my gripes but the one that really needs to improve. This tour is 5 hours which is way too long for 2 hours of driving and 4 stops. Instead of stopping in the affordable locals market with souveniers and food, which would be bringing business to the local small business owners. Instead we drove past it and over to 2 other souvenier store with way overpriced jewelry and liqour for which we spent 1 hour at with high pressure sales tactics. The other sourvenier store has no pressure but overpriced items and we stayed for over an 1 hour. Lastly, there is no stops for food!

Not a good shopping experience - The host was kind, but we could not hear him. The two shopping trips did not offer anything of interest and were tourist traps (cheap magnets, shirts, shot glasses etc). The amount of time we were left at these stores was excessive (1 hr.) at each. This trip may be ok for those without transportation, but there was no value in the guided trip. I do not recommend.

Pass on this one - Our tour guides were excellent! So helpful with our stroller and very friendly;however the stops were not impressive. We were dropped off at couple souvenir stores that were way overpriced. That’s pretty much the whole trip.

Definitely do not recommend - Found this tour on Viator. It was a total disappointment. We were picked up from our hotel and switched vans and the tour started. It comprised a guy standing/kneeling in his seat and talking to us about something. The air was so noisy I could barely hear him. We stopped at some murals painted on the sides of buildings. He told us who painted them. Most were not even from Mexico. Then we stopped at the obligatory shopping stop and then on to the “Tequila Museum”, which was just a liquor store with another store to shop in. When we went inside it didn’t look like anyone was even working the liquor store. So no education and no tasting or recommendation. I was ticked. Then on to the Cancun sign, where there is always a line. A complete and total waste of money.

Did not even get to go - We did not get to go on this due to damage to the bus. We were not even contacted about it, I had to call. We were offered a different option but the days offered did not work with our schedule and I couldn’t even get a refund back for this.
