Tulum Coba Akumal Snorkel tour Premium Service Small Group

An amazing tour. We managed to book this tour and were completely alone the entire time. No other people had booked so we had a private guided tour the entire time. Our guide allowed us to customize our tour by giving us the choice to do lunch after the snorkel and then Coba or Coba first. We choose lunch first so we did Tulum snorkel lunch and Coba. We took a boat out to snorkel and they allowed us a stop in front of Tulum to get wonderful pictures. Snorkeling we saw a variety of fish sea urchins, a sting ray, and two turtles! The snorkel guides brought fish to feed the turtle so it swam with us for a while. A total highlight of our trip. Coba we opted for a guide for the first half and the second we completed on our own although he did give us the option of a full tour through all of Coba. We opted just for the basics then wanted to explore a little alone. The driver was wonderful as well making sure we had every convenience such as cold water after the long Coba hike. I highly recommend this tour and company.

If you want to see it all, this is the trip to take! Our hotel told us it was impossible to do tulum, turtles and Coba in a day and tried to charge us $2200 for a private excursion of just Coba and turtles so we were excited when we found this excursion on Viator for A fraction of the cost for a family of 6 with everything we wanted! Tulum, snorkeling with turtles, jungle hike, climb ruins, Mayan village lunch and more! We lucked out and had half the day as a private trip after snorkeling which was perfect to spread out and relax in between excursions. We like faster pace and I already have an extensive knowledge of Mayan history (college degree in Latin American Studies), so it was nice to have both the broad strokes information for the kids and yet get more in depth discussions with Mario as we discovered carvings, flora and fauna, ball courts and other Mayan jungle treasures. Would recommend to walk the trek to Coba so you can enjoy the treasures of the jungle and history. Coba is a bit of a climb at end of day and requires some athletic shape, but even our 8 year old with a sprained ankle made the climb. Best shopping is the markets opposite the entrance to Coba. Our son got a wooden toy for $5 from a great shop owner at the very end of the stores in Coba where as the restaurant wanted $27 for a broken version of the same toy. The snorkeling was excellent. Great variety of exotic fish, two turtles and even a huge school of fish to swim with. One of the best spots we have snorkeled. We travel the world and always use Viator. We have found them to be much better in value, experience and personal attention then any tour company especially when compared to tours offered at hotels and cruise lines.
