Isla Mujeres Full Day Tour on Yacht with Snorkel and Buffet

xiaowend2026, Sep 2026

Yacht tour to Isla Mujeres

This tour was fun, it is a long tour. We got some free time to visit Isla Mujeres which was very nice. The snorkeling part was intense for non advanced swimmers but it was very nice to see the underwater part. All Crew members are very friendly. It is a great tour for sure

3 adrenaline activities Atvs Zipline and a swim experience in a cenote

Alexander_W, May 2026

Great experience. Getting there and back is tough.

The ATV, Cenote cave swim, and zip lines are a lot of Fun. The Cenote swim is amazing. Just to note bring bug spray or pay 20 usd$ there for a can. You will also have to pay a locker fee of 5$, and insurance of 5$ per atv. It rained when we were there so there is no dust. So no bandana needed. We left from RIU Cancun and it took us 2 hours to get there. The final miles is very bumpy. On the way back the shuttle overheated and we were stuck in the middle of the highway for about 40 minutes till another shuttle could pick us up and it smelled like cigarettes.

Amazing trip to Isla Mujeres

Such a fun boat ride and got to visit a beautiful island! The hosts on the boat were super fun and engaging. The drinks were delicious and the music was good, lots of people dancing! Also the lunch that was served on the boat was really good and filling. We got to explore the island for about 2 hours.

Maya Temazcal Night Ceremony from Cancun with Cenote Swim and Dinner

miyakoz2026, Feb 2026

Wonderful Experience 3 in 1

Our guide Nadia was awesome! People in our group was great too. I really recommend this ceremony in this place for the first timers, because it was much gentler than the one I had last time in Playa del Carmen. The cenote in this village was also wonderful, compared to other ones I’ve been. We had a great time here and learned how to say thank you in Mayan language. I used it to Mayan guide next day and he was happy to hear it.

Maya Temazcal Night Ceremony from Cancun with Cenote Swim and Dinner

jaqouille69, Aug 2025

Unforgettable experience

It was an unforgettable moment!! With our guide Jonathan, we had a really amazing experience!! We escape for a few hours of our world with this Mayan ceremony and especially stay for a good time in a kind of natural sauna with burning stones in the dark and there we eliminate all our toxins before diving a very fresh cenote and a typical Mayan dinner .. frankly it is absolutely necessary to do it to connect to the essentials of our existence!!... Just thank you to Jonathan.

Great birding experience

As an avid world birder, i knew what I wanted to see on this tour, and Jose immediately understood my preferences and did a great job of locating the species that I wanted. We immediately connected, and it was a joy to spend the morning birding with him.

Great day!

The zip lines alone are worth your time but I suggest the whole package. They pick you up and drop you off at your hotel and the staff is super nice and helpful. They even feed you some really good lunch. Five stars

Unforgettable Experience

Overall, I am very happy with the tour, inparticular, I enjoyed the boat trip very much. It is my first small motorboat experience, and the opportunity to take photos on the wild life in this preservation is an unforgettable experience. I would do that again in the future.

THIS TOUR IS A MUST!

Taking the catamaran tour was a fantastic experience. My partner and I were on vacation in Cancun and this was definitely the best choice. The agency was super punctual and attentive, a perfect 10!We had so much fun. The crew was great, very friendly and cool. We went snorkeling and saw amazing fish. The beach club was beautiful and the food was delicious.Everything was perfect and we had an incredible time. If you’re in Cancun, this tour is a must!

Mayan Adventure from Cancun

V9003CYgarym, Apr 2024

Lots of fun

Went on this tour solo as I am 64 years old and my wife was not up for the zip lining. I had never zip lined before and thought it would be fun. The tour was affordable, 1/2 a day long and was great. The zip lining was really fun and exciting. The ATV riding was also quite a lot of fun, jumping 20’ down into the first Cenote was cool as heck, you can also walk down to the water if a 20’ plung is not your choice. The second Cenote you walk down into, there is a zip line you can ride into the water or just walk into. Very fun, I would tell anyone to do this. The Taco lunch at the end was also very tasty
