Wonderful, highly recommend, a few things to know.. - Such a good time. Ismael was a great guide and very attentive. We loved the Mayan tour, the snorkeling was very fun (lots of stingrays!) and the celotes swim was truly the highlight of the tour. Tips for travelers: wear your swimsuit under your clothes, apply sunscreen before you get started, wear comfy shoes first and then change into water shoes for snorkeling and celotes. You can change out of your swimsuit after the celotes swim. Lunch was very good as well.

Ocean adventures snorkeling and tulum - Our guide was Sofia, from Spain, and her 20+ years of scuba diving experience greatly improved our snorkeling adventures pointing out rays, turtles, coral types, and the many species of fish.
Her humor and down to earth personality resonated with our whole crew (blend of Canadians and Americans).
A job well done Sofia...highly recommend

Full day of fun in Tulum - A friend and I are staying Cancun for a few days we wanted to do a fun day trip and explore Tulum… this tour was great for that! We got to the the Mayan ruins, snorkel in the reef with fish, stingrays and a few turtles!! And ended in the Cenotes which totally blew my mind, that was so much fun. Sofia was an amazing tour guide, super friendly, laid back, approachable and knowledgeable.
Definitely recommend bringing snacks with you, a waterproof phone case, and a change of clothes for the ride home 👍🏻👍🏻 again, thank you to Sofia! She looked out for us all day 🙏🏻🤙🏻😃🐢

1st time in Playa de Carmen - Tulman was impressive. We got there early before it got crowded, so we really enjoyed it. It was my 1st time snorkeling, so that was quite an experience! It was enjoyable once I got the hang of it. But swimming in the centote was the highlight of the tour for me. It was awesome !!

One of the Best Experiences To Remember For a Lifetime! - My husband and I were on our honeymoon, booked this for just us and it turned out to be one of the most incredible experiences of our lives. Our tour guide Sergio was so knowledgeable and informative, our driver Enrique kept us safe and the photographer Estefania was amazingly talented! All of our photos turned out beautiful. The Tulum ruins was breathtaking, the snorkeling was the perfect amount of time (even got to see a 3-5 year old turtle as well as a few stingrays), and the cenote/cave tour had me speechless. We got to see bats as well in there. 10/10 recommend for anyone looking for a full day adventure whether you're solo, with a buddy or a group. Amazing crew!!

Great day! - Great experience. Valentin was an excellent guide & did a great job.
Cenote was the highlight. Amazing to see & swim through the caves. Our group was 12 people & we had the whole thing to ourselves.
Tulum ruins are fantastic, the most impressive ruins site I’ve visited. The view of the ocean over the cliffs is fantastic.
Snorkeling was solid, saw tons of stingrays & 2 sea turtles, mostly smaller fish. A turtle swam up from the bottom & surfaced 4ft in front of my face. Water was pretty choppy this time of year, but not overly bad.
The taco lunch was really good. There are 3 choices of meats & rice/beans/pasta sides.

Amazing unforgettable experience - This was an amazing experience! Such a fun day with Miguel, Luiza, and Angel. Miguel was an excellent tour guide with a vast knowledge of Tulum, snorkeling and cenotes. Plus he was so attentive and patient with me who was snorkeling for the first time. Angel was an amazing driver getting out of tough spots and driving on some challenging roads. Luiza took amazing photos that will be treasured family keepsakes. She is truly an artist! I would do another tour with them in a heartbeat!

Traumatic experience - I would give our trip a 5 star rating except for the snorkeling part. That part gets a negative.
Our boat captain actually ran over some other snorkelers going full speed. It was very traumatic for us. He didn’t even stop to see if anyone was hurt, It’s hard to believe they were ok-the boat actually went over the top of them-going full speed. Then, we were very hesitant to get in the water, for fear another boat would run us over. We could not relax to enjoy snorkeling because we felt we needed to watch for other boats. Then our boat left us and the other boat beside ours also left. We were very afraid. I know there are some risks involved with snorkeling, but you wouldn’t think being run over was one.
