See what you want in comfort! - We had a great time! Jenny was very flexible with our requests. We highly recommend having your own car to tour the island. It's well worth it.

Excellent experience with Taz - This was a great experience with our tour guide Taz. He was on time at our hotel, in a new car with AC and a cooler full of water and drinks. He worked with us to plan a perfect itinerary. We started at San Gervasio for the Mayan ruins, and hired Ivan to show us around, who was cheesy but funny and explained all about the site and how the Mayans incorporated their beliefs and science into the structures. Then Taz took us on a tour of the east coast of Cozumel and stopped at a few different beach clubs to get drinks and pictures. We saw everything from perfect white sandy beaches, cool rocky shores, surfers and snorkelers, and the bluest water. A couple the clubs we only stayed at for a very short time, dipping our toes in the ocean, and didn't even have drinks, but it was no problem. Taz was happy to let us spend as much or as little time as each place as we wanted. He seems to know everyone at every club and we never had to wait in line. Taz was wondeful the whole time, talking about the history of Cozumel and asking questions to engage us. His English is great, though he was happy to help us with Spanish. He's very friendly but not pushy and really tailored everything to us. We ended up at the Skyreef Beach Club for snorkeling, which was fantastic. We were at the end of our time, so Taz recommended that we stay there as long as we want and take a taxi back, and he told us who to call and what the rate would be, which was perfect. The only issue I had was that I didn't bring enough cash, as many of the places don't take credit cards. But Taz helped us out with that, finding a hotel with an ATM. This was one of the best tour experiences that my wife and I have ever had. Muchas Gracias Taz!

Excellent and reliable service made for an amazing afternoon! - We had an excellent afternoon as we toured San Gervasio ruins and enjoyed lunch in the eastern side of the island. Booking the activity was super easy and the owner made it easy to coordinate pickup from our hotel. Our driver George was knowledgeable and easy going. I highly recommend this service. You can plan you day how ever you’d like.

Great Private Tour! - Gerardo was a great guide! We met at the appointed location and discussed which venues we wanted to see, while we looked at the island map. He made his suggestions, and we were off. First, we went to a chocolate factory tour, which was fun with lots of free samples. Then we stopped and got yummy, homemade ice cream, and then we went to the Mayan ruins.

Amazing Island Tour by Taz - Taz took great care of us, touring us around the island on our anniversary. We started with a Mayan Experience, tequila, chocolate and honey tasting. I even got to make my own tortilla! He was able to get us in before the crowds and they did a special ritual for our anniversary. Then we made a couple stops around the island for some amazing drinks and beautiful views. It seems hes gots friends everywhere! We got to take pictures with an iguana and see a family of crocodiles. Taz was so knowledgeable about the island, shared lots of info and had lot of jokes which made for an amazing day! They are happy to accommodate the tours to your wants and needs. I would highly recommend this company if your in Cozumel!

Saturday, February 3rd, 4hr tour. - This company, along with Taz, were highly recommended by a friend. I reached out to them about wanting to do a van tour for the 4 of us. And mentioned we were interested in history, and general sightseeing of the area. Communication with Taz and his company, was great. Changing start time was no problem. Instructions on the meeting place, and who to look for, was spot on. Our tour guide was Kor. She was wonderful! A great guide, and a joy to visit with. Our driver, and also a guide, was Memo. He was super nice too, and a very good driver. We lucked out with both Kor, and Memo. We started our tour with a stop for tequila tasting. I was a bit skeptical at first, but at the end of the tour, and tasting, I was very pleased and had a better appreciation of tequila. Thanks. Then it was off to San Gervasio, to tour the Mayan archaeological site. We paid for the admission, then paid for a personal tour guide. The guide takes you around the grounds, then you can tour the grounds on your own. After that, we stopped at a restaurant for nachos and drinks, then had a driving sightseeing tour of the area, eventually looping back to our starting point near the cruise terminal. We had a great tour. And this makes us want to return for more sightseeing. I am glad we got to spend time with Kor and Memo. Thank you.

Too little time, to do too little. - Driver was very prompt & informative. Description of what was available to see on the tour description was what NOT accurate per driver's knowledge. Ended up at the Chankanaab Park and swam with the dolphins. Took up most of our shore time. Should of done the Dolphinaris instead and we would have had more time to tour. The driver took us to a tequila tasting was was very informative. Other than the Mayan Ruins, there's really not much to do in Cozumel.
