The right guide made this a great experience!! - We were fortunate to have Ricardo as our guide. He goes out of his way to give you a personalized and fun experience. His “no rush” take your time approach, and his knowledge of the culture and the area make the trip more enjoyable. We started off at the cenote where he was patient with my wife who has a phobia of water. He took a buoy and helped my wife snorkel the entire cenote… really going the extra mile. From there we got on electric scooters and toured the town and saw a historic Mayan church and a nearby significant cemetery (from the outside). We continued to the reef where we went snorkeling. The independent snorkeling crew weren’t the best at being patient with my wife, but Ricardo tried his best to ask them to be slow with her.
Net-net the trip exceeded our expectations, but what made it extra special was our tour guide Ricardo!!
Cheers! Danny and Kristina

True local guides sharing the beauty of casa cenote and coral reef - Ricardo and Paco our guides were absolutely fantastic!! If you are considering booking this trip absolutely do you will not regret it!! Ricardo picked us up from our hotel and brought us to the office then dropped us back at our hotel at the end of the trip. He even helped us out getting Tulums BEST coffee located on the corner of the road outside the office / meeting point.
We snorkelled the cenote and my goodness it was incredible the clearest water ever.. then we had the best Mexican sandwich before heading out to swim the reef.. seeing the corals, so many amazing fish and even a stingray was a dream come true! Then Ricardo even let us swim back to shore rather than wait on the boat.
Both Ricardo and Paco were so knowledgable sharing so much information about Tulum and even Mayan history.
Highly recommend!!

Memorable trip - Our guide Ricardo was excellent! Went above and beyond for us. Snorkeling in the ocean was super cool. Water was visible but we didn’t see any sea turtles, either way we enjoyed it. Snorting the cenote was way cooler because of the rocks, caves and Panchita the alligator.we had a blast and it felt like an adventure

The James Bond’s of Tulum! - My favorite part of the whole experience was getting to know our tour guide Ricardo. He was such an attentive and easy going guide. He always made sure to keep us all safe and within his eye sight.
We went to a cenote on atvs, then had an awesome time riding our e-bikes to the beach for snorkeling with rays and turtles. I really enjoyed getting to know Ricardo and the awesome time he showed us.

Memorable trip - Tour was so much fun. Starting with the Casa cenote where we saw a lot of baby fish in the mangroves. Next
we rode an Ebike at a very comfortable pace to a snorkeling place by Tulum. Viewed many stingrays and a couple of turtles. Ended the tour with some great Mexican cuisine. Gracias Ricardo for a very memorable and fun time.

Great excursion, snorkeling experience helpful. - My husband and I are retirees and took our adult children to Mexico for a family trip. We took this excursion and felt that it was well organized, Victor, our guide, was great. The cenote was beautiful, Tulum was amazing. It was a fair hike to get from the drop off to the actual ruins and we wished we had taken advantage of the offered umbrellas to protect from the sun and heat. The snorkeling bay is beautiful but there was minimal instruction on how to snorkel and only one of our group had any experience. She saw turtles and loved it! They gave us masks and life vests, had us climb in the boat, go about 100 yards off shore, take a deep breath and jump in. I’m not complaining, it was just a little too much for the rest of us so we sat it out. My comments are an FYI for others looking into the excursion. It was a great and tiring day!

Fun day in Tulum - This was a great experience in Tulum. Our guide Paco was the best! We took scooters to the cenote and back and then took e-bikes to the beach to snorkel with rays and turtles. There weren’t a lot of colorful fish as I had expected for a reef, but the turtles were plentiful and amazing! Paco kept us safe and was a wealth of information and entertainment.

Not what was expected - unfortunately it didn’t go as expected and we never made the tour. The tour started with us being picked up in a pretty beat up truck. The driver then suggested changing our planned itinerary to visit other locations, because the planned locations weren’t going to be good. While I understand the driver may have had good intentions, we weren’t comfortable with the sudden changes. The driver the. mentioned that if we wanted to change plans that we didn’t have to tell the manager which all together made us a bit uneasy. Ultimately, we decided to end the tour early because something felt off from the start.
I appreciate that the company responded to my concerns when I contacted them, but unfortunately, they decided not to offer a refund. I hope this review helps others who might be looking for a more organized and transparent experience.

So disappointed - So disappointed by this experience. Four main reasons: you have to wear a life jacket to snorkel in the ocean, so you can only look into the water from the surface, they feed the fish, which they are not supposed to, the visibility really isn’t great (on a perfectly bright day), the experience out in the ocean only lasted approx 10-15min. Don’t waste your money go snorkelling in another part of the world.
