One thing we really liked was that the tour includes transportation, which was very helpful since it was our first time in Cancun and we didn’t know the area. They picked us up from our hotel without any issues. During the ride everything was very pleasant. When we arrived at location, the staff was already waiting for us to place us in the group we would be snorkeling with. The weather was perfect and the water was crystal clear.…”

The van picks up other people on the way to drop off at other excursions. However, the excursion itself was a blast! Our guides were very nice, very informative, and showed us the best spots! After snorkeling, we went back to get cleaned up and they offered tequila tasting. It was great hearing the history and how to find true authentic tequila. To finish off, we ate tacos that was just…”
