Great tour - Jareth and Isaurou did a fantastic job guiding us throughout the day. They were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed learning about cenotes, the lagoon, and the beauty of Mexico.

Great day out, better than busy Chichen Itza - We really enjoyed our trip to Coba and preferred it to Chichen Itza as it was much quieter. Was longer than we expected as it said 3hrs online but it was actually all day. We were picked up at 8:15 and arrived back at our hotel 16:15. Our guide Ana and driver Luis were great, really friendly and very knowledgeable and it was great that there were only 10 people on our tour.

Recommended - This was a very nice tour. Ana and Luis, the guide and driver, were fantastic and very knowledgeable. The food was very good, but I wish we could bring our water into the restaurant.

Really good time - Nice bit of guiding and driving. Really appreciated the history of Mayan math, history, and culture. Coba visit worked well. Saw alot in 90 minutes. The rickshaw bikes enabled my 82 year-old Mom, with a cane, to make the trip. Cenote (including the ritual at the start) was great. Ditto the food. Ivan (our driver) was always looking at the road and never his phone. Mike had good humor.

You can't go wrong with Cancun Adventures! - The tour was excellent!! Our tour guide Adei (pronounced "a day") was super friendly, well informed and did a fantastic job leading us through the Coba ruins. And getting the cold towels after walking through the heat was a nice touch! The cenote was really cool too! We got there and there were no other groups at first - so it felt "very vip". The meal that was included was really good! My husband is celiac and had no issues with the food!

Peaceful cenote and less touristy ruins. - Coba is a large shaded site. Anna was an amazing tour guide with knowledge about the Mayan culture. She was very enthusiastic and respectful of the sites we visited and answered every question. Driver put safety first. Partially enclosed cenote was secluded with very few tourists. Not as clear as other cenotes, but very peaceful. Trip was a few hours longer than the brochure. We didn't mind as it was so informative and you did not feel rushed. Bravo!
