Personalized tour of the whole island! - This is a great tour for an overview of the whole island! Enrique was very knowledgeable and was willing to take us anywhere we wanted to go. We drove around the circumference of the island (as much as was possible). He took us to the Mayan ruins. It was very hot and he had cold water and soda to offer us. It was great to have a personalized tour just for our group!

Great Experience - The four of us enjoyed our tour with Ana. She was friendly, fun, and informative. Comfortable vehicle. We were able to do all the things we wanted to do. We visited ruins, a cenote, went to a local market, ate at a local restaurant, and snorkeled at the beach. Would tour with her again.

Tour of the Island - On the 15 of Feb four of us hired Mario to drive us around the island and see the highlights; Punta Sur Nature Park and various places on the East side. Mario picked us up on time and provided us with an easy relaxing day. He did the driving and provided a little guidance. The nature park with it's beautiful beaches and its internal lagoons complete with mangroves, crocodiles, and abundant bird life. Once out of the park we were able to have a few drinks at a few stops on the east side of cozumel without worrying about driving. If you are interested in seeing more of the island without renting a car consider hiring Mario for a relaxing ride around the island in a well maintained van with comfortable seating. Mario is punctual, knowledgable, polite, and easy to be around.

X-Rail and Private Jeep - Our group loved the x-rail! We added on the chocolate making, honey tasting, and tortilla/salsa experience ($15 pp); we were happy that we did. Irving (our guide) was very friendly! He brought us to the local market and some touristy spots. Have a plan of what you want to see/ share with your guide; this will help to utilize your time most efficiently. A lot of the “extras” cost more money (so be prepared for that). Our only feedback would be that we wished while driving around our guide could have provided more history of the island/ more of a verbal tour.

Excellent, nature-filled excursion! - Lovely tour exploring the east side of the island and stopping for the best, freshest mojito. Oscar and Jesus were wonderful guides. The views were breathtaking. Snorkeling at Punta Sur was wonderful. We saw vultures, raccoons, rays, iguanas, crocodiles, multiple types of fish (including barracuda). Such a lovely eco preserve area. Not touristy or crowded. Excellent excursion experience.
