All day tour - It's an all day tour that includes 3 spots and lots of walking. Make sure you dress comfortable and bring sunscreen n bug spray. It's not really guided tours but u r given a brief history at the 1st stop before you go explore. Lunch was great but does not include any beverages including water or juice even though the exclusion only specifies alcohol beverages, you will have to purchase at the restaurant. The 2nd stop has alot of waking but you can rent a bicycle or tricycle where somewhere rides the bicycle (fits 2 people). Also at the cenote life jackets are mandatory (necessary beecher it cenote is deep) and is not included in the cost.

Not what I expected! - When we reserved the trip the site said Max 15. We believed it meant no more than 15 people on the tour. We did not want to be on a tour bus with 50 people. However we were picked up by a young teenager driving a van who did not speak a word of English and taken to a tour bus full of people. The trip took about 13 long hours. The stop at Coba could only be for an hour. So you had to walk 2 km each way and try to see it in 2 hours with no tour guide.
