Punta Mosquito fue lo mejor - All the trip was well planned. Pickup and drop off went very well. Transportations and timings were very good. Since it rained in our tour bicycles were not recommended, so we grabbed a taxi to Punta Mosquito and booked the return tax to the port. It was the best decision. I recommend to enjoy all the time you can at Punta Mosquito.

Fun day! - Very well organized, good value for all that is included. Holbox is a great little island with a laid back beach vibe. We rented a golf cart for 2 hours and had a great time with stops for beer, ice cream and of course the awesome white sand beach.

Guides are great! Not worth the all day travel time, tourist trap, pricey food and drinks, nothing spectacular to see - The trip was okay, well organized, guides were great. However Holbox is overrated and not worth the time it took to travel there. We stayed in Rivera Maya and were gone 12+ hours.
Holbox - total tourist trap, nothing spectacular here to see and food and drinks on the beach are pricey. There was rain the night before and the streets were streams of what looked felt like wet concrete. We tried the lobster pizza - not too impressed.
The other beach islands they take you too, toning better than what we had access to at our hotel.
Would not visit here again.

Well organized tour, but Holbox isn't worth the effort - The tour was very expensive, and Holbox wasn't worth the time. It was a long drive to the port and back, and Holbox was just another beach next to a muddy dirt road. I didn't see anyone bike--the road was too muddy. The cenote swim was a nice place to cool off, but it was a like a packed swimming pool with everyone there at once. The tour operator did a fine job though, no complaints.
