Great tour…need reusable water bottles for Tulum - We had Herlan and Miguel for our tour. They were excellent. We did the turtles first because they thought we’d have a better chance of seeing them…which we did. The cenote was not something I was interested in but the whole family enjoyed it once we go there. The Tulum ruins were the big thing for me. Be warned, you can’t bring disposable water bottles and it is crazy hot there with little shade. If we had know in advance we would have brought a few reusable water bottles to have made the excursion less painful. All in all, I thought the guide and driver did a really good job and I would use them again if we go back.

INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE, WOULD DO IT AGAIN💘/INCREÍBLE EXPERIENCIA, LO HARÍA DE NUEVO 💘 - We had an amazing experience with our guide (Herlan), since he's an archeologist, well, he really knows what he's talking about! Really charismatic and fun, as patient with the group; he explained every detail that we needed to know in for us to understand. The driver was really punctual! All the places we visited were clean and beautiful. I love traveling and exploring places with Cancun Bay. If you want to live the real experience I really recommend going with them, 100!! 💘 Tuvimos una experiencia increíble con nuestro guía (Herlan), ¡Como él es arqueólogo, se notaba su experiencia en el tema! Muy carismático y divertido, así como paciente con el grupo; nos explicó todos los detalles que necesitábamos para entender lo que sucedía y lo que veíamos. ¡Y el chófer fue muy puntual! Todos los lugares que visitamos estaban limpios y eran hermosos. Me encanta explorar y conocer lugares con Cancún Bay, así que si quieres vivir una experiencia real, ¡¡De verdad que recomiendo ir con ellos al 100!! 💘

I didn't feel like Tulum - The service was excellent, the restaurant was delicious, I ate a lot, and the place was excellent, we saw turtles and everything was perfect, the cenote was amazing, you have to jump from the platform of 6 meters (there are stairs) the information of our Guide Herlan was 100

Fantastic experience - Absolutely amazing tour. Really friendly hosts, really knowledgeable, Tulum was amazing, swimming with sea turtles was unforgettable and the cenote was so much fun! They didn't make you do the high jump if you didn't want.

Ruins, cenote and turtles - This was an amazing tour with Adrian and Erick. Adrian was very informative, nice, very fluent in both English and Spanish. This was probably our favorite day on our trip. We got to see tulum ruins, a beautiful cenote, have authentic Mexican cuisine and finished with snorkeling with turtles. Would highly recommend these guys for your trip!

Very well run and fun tour! - Great way to spend a day! This is a well organized trip. It was a small enough group not to feel crowded and there was plenty of time at each stop. Swimming in the cenote was perfect after walking at the ruins. Lunch was a pleasant surprise, good variety and homemade options. The cochinita was better than what I had at the resort by a long shot. Swimming with the turtles was so much fun, we got to see quite a few. Our tour guides were Adrian and Michael, both had great energy and made sure we knew just what to expect. Recommend bringing a waterproof phone case for photos and wearing shoes that dry quickly. I wore sandals and was fine but wouldn’t have minded having my other shoes to put on for the ride home. You do need a towel. Thanks to our driver as well for watching our things while we had fun!

Enjoyable afternoon. - Our guide, Adrian, was so funny!! He made the trip extra special. He educated us and kept us all moving in the right direction with humor and a big, positive attitude. We enjoyed the ruins, lunch, the center, and the many turtles. The guide for the snorkel really made an effort to get us up close with many turtles. They were so cute. We really enjoyed the day.

Nice day - A very good way to visit all places in one day. Everything was well organized, nice guide, good lunch. You just need to take into account that everywhere we have about one hour, but that is the price for a full program in one day. Tulum - beautiful place, but a lot of people and I would like to stay longer and ideally first thing in the morning. Cenote - very nice, I enjoyed it (except for the mandatory vests) Diving with turtles- beautiful place, but again a lot of people, the guide always finds a turtle, calls the others to look at it. You can't influence the interest of the other visitors in a particular place, if they accept it, this trip is great.

Great Excursion!!! - We had a great time and learned so much about the ruins and the Mayans from Adrien. He is very knowledgeable and his upbeat funny personality made it very entertaining. Thank you to Fernan as well for driving us all around and being patient. There is some room for improvement but I think those areas are known. As long as you can look past the commotion during the intake or processing phase of the excursion and the slightly crowded snorkeling experience,everything went smooth and was worth the adventure. Lunch was fantastic and the cenote was amazing! Overall great time and would go back again.
