100% recommended experience!

A very complete and fun tour. We absolutely loved the ATV ride, the zip lines were packed with adrenaline, and the horseback ride was the perfect way to finish the experience while enjoying nature. An excellent option for spending a different kind of day, full of adventure and fun.

A Really Fun Experience

We had a great time. The activities were really fun, and everything felt well organized. The scenery was beautiful, and each activity had something different that made the day even more enjoyable. I especially want to mention our guide, Diego, who was very friendly, attentive, and made sure we were comfortable throughout the whole experience. He also made the activities even more fun and explained everything clearly. If you're thinking about doing this tour, I definitely recommend it. It’s a great option for spending a different and fun day with friends

Cancun Sailing Catamaran Islas Mujeres With Luxury Beach Club

amandajK6326DU, Jul 2026

Best DAY Ever

10000% the best experience! We are so glad we booked this. We took 14 friends with us and Alexis, Giovanni and their crew took great care of us. They kept the drinks flowing and the party going the entire time. We booked the golf cart ride around the island as well and Alexis toured us around the whole island and showed us the beautiful scenery and El Chapo’s house. My husband want their dance off and they called him Papi Chulo the entire time. The best experience EVER!!! When we go back to Mexico we will be booking again. If you book with them you definitely want to ask for Alexis you won’t regret it. - Amanda with the Oklahoma Crew

Casa Tortugas cenotes, Tulum Mayan site and Madre Naturaleza tour

Roving319885, Jul 2026

Great experience!!

This place was beautiful and breathtaking. Definitely worth the money and the time. Our group was big enough to encourage interaction but small enough that you felt comfortable asking questions and felt like you were heard. Luis P. was our guide and he was AMAZING! Definitely recommend!! We were on a family trip and it was very engaging.

Chichén Itzá & Beyond: Private Tour with ATV Adventure in Izamal

pachilopez, Jul 2026

Wonderful private tours for 3 senior women

We had 3 customized tours with Jaguar Journey that made our trip to the Yucatan unforgettable. We are 3 senior women who are experienced international travelers. Our tours met our expectations to be well informed of historical and current cultures. We visited Chichén Itzá, Coba, Tulum and swam in 3 unique cenotes. In Cancun we learned about Mayan culture at the Museum. Our guide, Ariann, treated us like family. Her knowledge and enthusiasm were infectious. We were well cared for and felt safe at all times.

Casa Tortugas cenotes, Tulum Mayan site and Madre Naturaleza tour

pameladN6839EU, Jun 2026

I loved the cenote and the day; highly recommended.

We did this tour as a family and had such a great time together. Visiting the Tulum ruins was really special, the views were absolutely beautiful and our guide shared lots of interesting stories without making it feel like a history class. Casa Tortuga was definitely our favorite part. Every cenote was different, and the kids had so much fun swimming and exploring. It was the perfect way to cool off after walking around Tulum. We also loved being surrounded by nature all day, it felt peaceful and relaxing. Everything was well organized, the guides were friendly, and we never felt rushed. It was one of those days we'll always remember, and we're so glad we chose this tour.

Tulum ruins, Swim with turtles and Cenote from Riviera Maya

Brittany_J, Jun 2026

Trip of a lifetime. This company is gold⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What an absolutely incredible experience. Mark our guide was fantastic and very professional. It was perfect from start to finish. Had water and snacks for the bus accompanied by a lovely local lunch homemade tacos which were delicious. I felt like the entire day was super busy but executed really well. Tulum ruins was fascinating, turtle swimming at a lovely and sea area (with a professional photographer) then ending at a cooling and wonderful Cenotes in the middle of a jungle that was owned by locals! I honestly felt like a mermaid. What an experience. We just absolutely loved it. 10/10. Thank you! 7/8 hours approximately which is much more bearable than other trips that are 12 hours +. If you can’t decide a trip, this is definitely the one for you to get a glimpse of everything this part of Mexico has to offer.

Q7957QMjanek, Jan 2026

All day fun adventure

Pick up and port transportation was perfect. The staff explained each piece of the trip and directions were very clear. Don’t pass on the snorkeling part, it was great and we saw a sting ray plus other beautiful fish. Both islands were completely different and interesting: crazy busy shopping on one and peaceful serenity on the other. On the boat the staff was fun and attentive to all needs… please tip them well for their excellent service!!
