Great Day in Cozumel! - JC was great! He was very knowledgeable, and took us to interesting spots. We went through both the touristy areas and off the beaten path. The ruins were the highlight, but the whole tour is the perfect five hour excursion if you are coming off a cruise ship for one day.
My only advice would be for the tour company to pick an shop next to the 7-eleven, because that location has many other people trying to sell you other tours.

It’s definitely worth it! - Had a great time learning about the island with our tour guide JC. He did an amazing job explaining the culture and history of the island that he loves so much. We also enjoyed learning about the San Gervasio ruins with the official guide. So much rich history here. It’s an experience we will never forget.

It couldn't be more professional! - It was a really great tour! Birgit (our guide) lovingly took care of everything and took us into the world of the Maya. She showed us the most beautiful places on the beach from her experience and they were really fantastic. Such expert tips are worth their weight in gold. And then she also took care of our physical well-being. We just had to let ourselves be driven around and enjoy. Very nice! Lovely again!!!

Excellent private tour with JC!! - JC was awesome! We had a private tour and JC is very knowledgeable, professional, very caring and attentive to our needs.. he even went above and beyond at the end.. we wanted to try a restaurant that g graciously offered to drop us off at.. once we got there, realized we didn’t have enough cash for a tip for a taxi to go back because the tip was going to JC… he mentioned the taxis are cash only so we asked if could take us back to the terminal and he did.. then he hugged us a the end! Just a genuine, good natured man who made our experience that much better! Thank you JC!!!
