Traveler reviews
Snorkel and tequila tasting.
Pick up and drop off at hotel was as expected. We stopped in two locations to snorkel. Saw all kinds of fish, stingrays, turtles, a 7’ shark and barracudas. Our tour guys was lovely. They provide you all the gear and life jackets. We did bring our own snorkel set. Lunch was fajitas, you could pick between chicken or beef. You had to pay for your own drinking you wanted some. Time for shopping was short. Tequila tasting was great. They gave us many samples, we ended up buying a bottle. We were the last ones on the bus. Time is town was too short. Maybe another hour or two would be perfect.
Overall A Nice Tour
Overall a decent tour. A bit disorganized getting everyone situated for the boat ride to the reef. Not a very clean facility. The actual snorkeling was pretty cool. The guides watch you like a hawk for safety reasons. A++ for that. The tequila sampling and brief history lesson regarding the tequila making process was interesting. Lunch was very good.
Boat 4 is the best!!!
This was our second year doing this and love it every time!! Boat 4 aka the “sexy boat “ is a great crew who take care of your every need. Relaxing boat ride, fun music and great food and drinks!! Will be back again for another trip
Tourist trap, poor service bad experience.
They are very tricky and will charge you fees which is more than the government t fee. Poor transportation no attention to detail and then they will try to seek you an over priced tequila. AtY away from them. Be prepared to wait 2 hr for a ride back to you hotel, don’t ask them to drop you elsewhere because they will not do so.
Fun but wished it was longer
The guides were very friendly and professional. Also, the shop prices were super reasonable. The trip itself was great. While I personally wish the pace was a bit slower and could spend a bit more time in the reef, I didn’t feel rushed or frustrated. The only critique I have is that I wish there was more transparency around the itinerary. While it’s listed as a four hour trip, we spent less than an hour in the actual water. The other portion was lunch and walking around town before our transport came. While the town is cute, I had hoped for more time at the reef.
