Tulum and Sian Kan - a great day out - Our guide Nicole, was very knowledgeable and explained a lot about how Tulum was used as a trading town. The trip to Sian Kan after, was Amazing. Floating peacefully through the mangroves should be on everyone’s bucket list.

Incredible tour - Wow, this was an amazing tour. Jonathan and Paloma were thoughtful guides, punctual and informative. The entire day was magical. For the Tulum tour, Paloma was so knowledgeable. The lunch was delicious and fun. And the Sian Ka’an portion incredible. We even saw a spider monkey! Highly recommend this tour. Lucky you if you get Jonathan and Paloma.

Disappointed - We did not get to go on the tour we originally booked. The tour company changed the tour once, then day before the changed the tour again. And then the day we took the tour it was too windy to snorkel out on the reef. So even the promised upgraded tour was mostly a day on a boat with a short stop to swim. One of the guides seemed pleased to be doing the tour, she was upbeat and shared a lot of information with her group. Our guide seemed liked he got forced to work on his day off. We did find the boat tour in the Sian Ka'an Unesco World Heritage site breathtaking and seeing birds, marine wildlife and the mangroves was amazing. I am thankful I was able to be placed on a tour but was left feeling like I was just an inconvenience to the company and they just didn't want to lose out on our money. So, overall I was disappointed that they couldn't fulfill the tour I requested and would have appreciated a candid "sorry we can't do the tour" early enough that I have found another company who could have.
