Fantastic - We really enjoyed the boat ride as well as the snorkeling, saw some cool animals we’d never seen. Our guides were very nice, would definitely recommend this tour.

Bad weather and they let us cancel - It’s so refreshing that a company values its customers enough to cancel when the weather would make the trip undesirable. I’m so glad they didn’t make everyone go out in unfavorable conditions but rather gave everyone the opportunity to cancel or rebook for another day.

Excellent experience! - Had a great time at the Barracuda speed boat and snorkeling tour. Easy check in process and all staff was very helpful! Guide was very friendly and showed us a few favorite places on the reef while snorkeling. Then we had time to explore the reef on our own. Snorkeling is great! We preferred the smaller group of boats & people with Barracuda, as opposed to other tour operators. We didn't have to wait for managing of so many others in docking and at reef. Would definitely go again with this operator.

It was very well worth experience! - It was great speed boat experience for our family and enjoy the best sea life in the ocean. From booking to viewing the pictures everything was very made and the staff across the board explained it very well with lot of patience. The guide was excellent. The pictures that they took on the dock and also via drone came out with top quality. Overall great experience and it was our second time visiting the same place after 7years. Sunil c

Sosolala - Drive through mangroves was nice. The guide tried very hard. The snorkeling unfortunately rather sobering. Mass tourism on a destroyed reef.

Fun trip but hidden fees - The people in Cancun are hardworking and service oriented, and the Jungle Tour was no exception. It's really a fun time driving the small boats and snorkeling. The one thing that kind of ruined the whole vibe was the "dock fee." I don't mind paying people what they are owed, but I hate feeling scammed and nickel and dimmed. If there was an additional "dock fee" why not just add it to the price of the ticket on line so that the price is transparent and a person can compare tour companies. If there was small print about the price, it was VERY small. And the additional fee was almost half again the price of the tour. You can do better, Jungle Tour! We also felt very rushed through the snorkeling portion.
