Cancun City Sightseeing Tour

I really enjoyed the history of the Cancun. Also, meeting others and having tequila tasting and shopping was great as well.

This was such a disappointment. There were 8 of us (mom, dad, adult children, adult girlfriends and one teenager). We were picked up late, about 30mins. So late that I called the main office to see if I had the wrong time. Finally picked up in a private van. Very nice vehicle and had great A/C so that accounts for one of their stars. First stop was this “Tequila Factory”. What a joke. It’s walking through someone’s backyard with big posters, showing parts of the process to make their “tequila”. Then you go inside this house for the tasting. It tasted so sweet and so smooth. They had so many flavors and I was duped- only after purchasing two bottles at $50each do I get it home and clearly see the label. It doesn’t say TEQUILA because it’s not. It has only 14% alcohol. It is just a flavored liqueur. Now it makes sense why once I decided on the coconut and mango “tequila”, they grabbed the bottles and took it to another table to quickly put it in cardboard and tape it all up making the label not visible. We were escorted around the side of the building where the nice old lady made us some pork street tacos. I was sick for three days after that. We drove to one souvenir store at Mercado 28, that had EVERYTHING, but who wants to shop at the first store you go to. I expected little markets, haggling with the lady selling her wares, lots of choices and options. Nope. Little did I know, that was going to be the ONLY store. I had to buy some souvenirs at the flipping airport! We drove to a beach where the famous CANCUN sign is. We were told if we wanted to get out and stand in line for a picture we can, but the line was too long so they’d have to circle around a few times to find parking or we could just go back to the hotel. We went back to the resort early. The driver never spoke to us and the “guide” was not much of a sightseeing guide. I wanted him to explain, talk, tell us something about what we were passing on the road. When they first picked us up he said, “let me know if you have any questions”. I didn’t know that meant because he was going to be SILENT THE ENTIRE RIDE! He seemed nice enough. When I did think of a question to ask, he did answer it- which accounts for the second star

Loved my private tour. They picked us up from the hotel and took us all over Cancun. They gave us the us the History and we even did some Tequila tasting.
