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

Sightseeing and shopping - I rate the experience a 4. Great customer service we made it safely to each Destination. I wish we had more time for shopping and less time with driving. I recommend parking at market 28 instead of the jewelry spot is better because there are more stores down in the area. Unfortunately there wasn't enough time to take photos in front of the cancun sign...once again I don't recommend driving through the market if we're not going to get out. Otherwise a great trip

Tequila museum was a let down. - Guide was knowledgeable about the history of Cancun. I was disappointed with the Tequila museum, a small room with a diorama. The tequila prices were higher than at home in Texas.

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.

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.

So not use this company - Viator are not letting me write a review on another tour I complained about so I’m written here. I’ve used Viator for years but never again. Customer service is horrendous. So not use them

Disappointed - Guides were fine. Was expecting a bus from previous pictures and instead was a packed passenger van. Only had 2 stops of about 5 minutes each for pictures. The 2 shopping stops were basically to tourist traps. The first had really pushy people and the second had some uninterested people. I was expecting the tequila museum to be a museum and not a corner of the store where we were basically ignored upon entering. Shopping stops were about 30 minutes too long especially when we saw the same stuff on our own. Very disappointed overall and felt like a waste of money and time. Trip lasted only 3 hours.

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.
