I had a love/hate with this trip. Firstly, we got picked up 30 minutes late.. When we finally got picked up, we sat on the bus for awhile and drove to a gas station where we were transferred to another bus. Our tour guide was a complete disaster. When we arrived to the Ferry to Cozumel he made us all go wait in this horrendous line, and then disappeared for the duration of our wait in the line. (Before he disappeared he gave us ham and mayonnaise sandwich’s for breakfast) We were all concerned about how we were going to get on the Ferry. He shows back up in the Knick of time. He didn’t give us any instructions of where to go. When we arrived at Cozumel we followed someone we recognized since we didn’t know the meeting place. He eventually shows up and we wait there for almost an hour because someone in the group was lost (probably due to lack of directions). This hour we waited was in the direct sunlight. We finally got sent away in taxi’s while he waited for the lost tourists. We were sent only with a name. So we start searching around for this person and find their mother.. She takes half of us to a small boat where we met our Captain. This is where the trip got mostly better. It was a 40 minute ride on the boat, but his boat was having problems and died over and over on our way to the reef. We ended up having to get rescued to get to go back. Snorkeling was amazing and beautiful as everyone knows. When we were done they took us to a restaurant where we met up with our disaster tour guide. I was served enchiladas with so many bones in the chicken, I couldn’t eat it. After this, we waited around for a big taxi and he couldn’t find one so he sent us to the ferry in small groups, again with no instructions. So basically Cozumel was beautiful but the guide and the process was awful.

Great time despite running into delays with the pick up and a stalled engine on the boat. The guide and boat crew were attentive and genuinely wanted us to have a great time. The locations visited were incredible.

Poorly organized. We were quoted 8 am at departure point and transfer and organization of all groups to the departure port in Cozumel took 4 hrs. Bad food for the price The same Tour you get up to 30% cheaper directly in Playa del Carmen The reefs are beautiful and if you must visit but perhaps there is better and more organized alternative

Love him.

Undoubtedly Cozumel is one of the most beautiful islands in our country, crystal clear water, white sands and different shades of blue in the sea. To get to know the island I recommend renting a motorbike and turning it all around to feel part of it! But the most important thing and what you should do is go to the sky “” flame as that is where the starfish live. You must rent a boat or a tour to reach the area, remember that the starfish DO NOT TOUCH, also avoid putting blockers that damage the ecosystem, protect your skin after immersing yourself in all activities! Let's take care of the species! Visiting Cozumel and being in heaven is something you should do on your next visit!

An incredible island, so calm and with the super clear water, you could see turtles, rays and other animals, it is a paradise this place. The people very friendly to attend us, the agency very secure. Emma looked after me and her treatment was very good. Very good photos can be taken. I loved the snorkel! 100% recommended
