Very organized and fun!

Mandy_K, July 2023

This was a really cool adventure! The bus picked us up at 11:30 am, we returned to our hotel at 4:30 pm. It included the snorkeling equipment, boat trip to two reefs, 3 guides on boat/water, 1 tour guide on land, bottled water, 3 course delicious lunch and time for shopping. Suggest bringing a change of clothes for after snorkeling. Men should shave face where mask goes to keep out water. 😁 Also put plenty of sunscreen on those exposed areas outside of life vest. The little shopping area has the restaurant, restrooms and several higher end shops. Right across the street is a grocery store with loads of stuff at pretty low prices. Super cool town area. Felt very organized and safe.

Beautiful views, too much travel time.

Picking up four different families and four wide spread out resorts took up almost the entire morning. I didn’t come to Mexico to wait on a bunch of families, so spread apart at different resorts. I basically wasted my time traveling. Too many kids.

Excellent Snorkel Tour

Julie_R, May 2023

We were happy to find this snorkeling trip that was exactly what we wanted, only about 15 minutes from Vidanta, our resort, took about 4 hours total and competent, reputable, knowledgeable staff. Ishmael and Alejandro picked us up in a clean, comfortable van. We were lucky enough to end up with a private snorkel experience due to other no shows. Ciello, the captain/snorkel guide made sure our equipment worked correctly and was careful to ensure our safety. He showed us many beautiful fish, and we even saw a barracks and an eel! Definitely our best snorkel experience. The tour included lunch at a quaint Mexican restaurant, and tequila tasting was included. We loved seeing Puerto Hotel is which is so different than Cancun or the resorts. We already referred another couple to this tour company, and would definitely use them again.

Good time

Kylie_M, Mar 2023

Overall a good time. Expect to spend closer to 6-7 hours away from your hotel due to travel time. The snorkeling itself was lots of fun, and we saw lots of different fish and barracudas. The area was pretty shallow, so it’s suited for more beginner snorkelers. We were with a group of around 15 people, and the snorkeling felt crowded at times. I will say our previous snorkeling experience near Isla Mujeres was better because there was constantly something to see, but I liked this tour a lot because we got free lunch, free tequila tasting, and the chance to explore Puerto Morelos for about an hour. You will have to sit through a 15 minute “tour” (read: sales pitch) of the shopping center where lunch is located before snorkeling, and it is very overpriced. However, the shopping center itself is gorgeous. If going on this tour, I would recommend making an effort to slightly distance yourself from the group while snorkeling and exploring the town outside of the shopping center.

Nice trip

AWEFUL

Tour operator never responded to online contact through viator. Hung up on me when I used resort phone to call number provided- twice. Never showed up for pickup. DO NOT BOOK WITH THEM. I'm still trying to get my money back through viator

No cumplen con el paquete que ofrecen

Javier_A, July 2023

Horrible experiencia. El paquete incluye transporte ida y vuelta. No pasaron por mi y mi familia. Cobro de servício y nunca pasaron por nosotros.

Début cahoteux mais l’activité a récupéré l’évaluation.

Mjo_D, Mar 2023

Bien mauvaise expérience de communication avec le fournisseur qui s’est très bien terminé par l’activité elle-même. Multiples envois de messages pour essayer de confirmer l’activité quelques semaines avant: sans réponse et même la veille. Finalement appel logé auprès du fournisseur pour apprendre qu’aucune prise en charge ne ses faisait à notre hotel la journée réservée. Nous avons pu changer la date sans trop de problèmes mais aucune confirmation écrite. Jamais été capable de rejoindre le fournisseur au téléphone via le concierge du resort et avons dû avoir l’aide d’un agent de Viator qui devait avoir autant de difficultés parce qu’on a dû attendre en ligne longtemps. Finalement, l’activité en elle-même s’est très bien déroulée et fut très agréable. On a vu une raie, des poissons aux multiples couleurs, un barracuda et de beaux coraux. Le diner à Puerto Moreles était local et excellent. Pour une première expérience les ados ont réellement trippés!! J’aurais donné 5 étoiles si ça n’avait été du manque de communication du fournisseur (qui a fini par s’excuser le matin même par courriel).
