Private Jeep tour in Cozumel with lunch and snorkeling, from Punta Sur and Chankanaab Reef to Mayan San Gervasio.

“I booked a jeep excursion for two. My guide was wonderful! We were suppose to see ruins, snorkeling, eco park, and the east coast of Cozumel. We only saw the east coast and a Tequila tasting (which we were not suppose to do). We didn’t do ANYTHING else that I signed up for. Our guide did her best, however. Granted, it did rain which was unusual, but we still could have seen the ruins, the east coast, and possibly snorkel. Our poor guide was given a jeep with the check engine light on the whole time. The windshield wipers only worked for a few seconds, so she had to keep…”

“Don’t do it. Cattle boat cramming. I would avoid this tour. Nothing but a cattle boat cramming the most people on to make money. They do not care about your comfort. Boat was jammed packed with people. There weren’t enough seats. People were sitting on the floor. Way too many people for the size of the boat. One little skinny ladder to use for 30 people to get in and out of the water. Took forever to get on and off the boat so not much time actually snorkeling. Rude people pushing their way in front of everyone. Food and drink aren’t provided until the last stop. The food was…”

Chankanaab Park day pass with guided reef snorkeling, lunch and drinks. Sea lions, tequila tasting, and coral near shore in Cozumel.

“Best part of this tour was snorkeling. The fish are bountiful and gorgeous. We’ve been visiting this park for years. It’s quite run down now. Don’t rush to see the sea lion show. There used to be several sea lions performing and we could take pictures at the end. We saw one sea lion and no pictures. We stayed on the left side of the park to snorkel and hang out so this review is based on that. We thought we were dining at the buffet like previous visits but this time, we were assigned the Crab restaurant; a very run down eatery with minimal meal. We were disappointed with…”
