Live the experience of driving an Speedboat & Snorkel in CANCUN

LampkinCrew7, Jun 2024

Let me drive the boat!!!

We had an amazing time, our guide was fun and knew we were there to drive the boats now they are a lil outdated but still very fun, snorkeling is also included in this one we did and the water is amazing, warm clear so much to see! As a water baby I truly enjoyed this tour! Captain Juan and guide were very knowledgeable and fun very down to earth people! They had a drone take a nice video of the speed boat tour for purchase after, and a tequila tasting. I'm not big on tequila but let me tell you repesado was the beat if I'm saying that correctly. My husband and I enjoyed our 10 year anniversary 💕

Tina_R, May 2024

Awesome snorkeling spots, great equipment, top-notch guide

The snorkeling to three reefs was amazing. We saw part of the underwater museum, a ship wreck and many, many turtles! Fili and her crew knew exactly where to go to see the most fish and to be away from the crowd. She was very patient with the children in our group.

Awesome two days

The first day was Tulum and Jacqueline was our tour guide and she was fabulous. The second day was Islam had us and Alex was our entertainment and he was great and all of the staff on the boat were wonderful. Also, the transportation to and from the hotel was great. We were very far because we were in Tulum and they picked us up and we very timely and brought us back both times, it was a great experience. I highly recommend them.
