We had the whole bus to...

We had the whole bus to ourselves. We had a great time. Tony the guide is amazing and very knowledgeable. Now as far as the stops. The first stop I think we could have done without honestly. As soon as the bus pulled up people came rushing the bus. We barely got a chance to get off when people were swarming us and asking us to do tails tastings and showing us stuff they wanted us to buy. There was an older lady who followed us around and was trying to get us to purchase things. She was nice. We were talking to her as we were shopping. We found two shirts as souvenirs for our boys. We went to pay and the cashier told us our total was MX $735. My partner speaks Spanish so my corner confirmed it was for both shirts. The cashier told her “yes both”. We paid and started heading to the bus because we were right at the time we were supposed to be back. The older lady who was helping us runs out and starts telling us that there was a mistake with the price. She said we were only charged for one shirt. My partner tells the lady that she asked and was told it was for both because there was no way they were charging $40 per shirt. (We also would not have purchased them if they were $40 per shirt) So she says no that’s for one shirt. If you don’t pay they’ll take it out of my salary. I told my partner to just give her one of the shirts back. If we had more time I would of told them to take the other shirt back too and give us our money back. When we got to the next stop they had the exact same shirts for $20 a piece. So I wouldn’t purchase anything at the first stop. I would wait for the next stop.

Double Decker Cancun fun!

Tony shared a lot of history about Cancun and had great sense of humor! Provided lots of great information on and when Cancun was built.

Perfect for First-Time Visitors to Cancun

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a fantastic experience on the Cancun sightseeing double-decker bus tour! It was such a fun and relaxing way to explore the city while learning about its history. Our tour guide, I believe his name was Tony, was outstanding—very knowledgeable, engaging, and made the entire tour enjoyable. The tour included a stop at Mercado 28, which was great to visit. However, since we had already been to Mercado 23 before the tour, I personally preferred Mercado 23 for shopping because the prices were better, and the people there were some of the warmest and friendliest we've ever met. If you're visiting Cancun and want an easy way to see the city and learn about its history, I highly recommend this tour. The complimentary beer and bottled water were a nice bonus too! 😅 Definitely worth it!

Fun adventure

From the arrival with the music all the way to the hotel we had a great time.Our tour guide spoke both English and Spanish.The spoke was fun very educational on some of the history and places.We got refreshments as well on our tour.It was a fun sightseeing tour thank you until next time.The only thing I didn’t like which he warned us and I guess I didn’t listen was the first souvenir shop was a ripped off.Don’t buy anything from them it’s too expensive but the second souvenir shop has the same stuff and much cheaper with a discount and a free gift.Other than that experience at the first shop everything else was worth it.

Informative Tour

The tour is informative. Arturo and Tony are very nice and shared interesting facts about Cancun and Isla Mujeres. The first shopping stop is a scam- especially the jewelry store. You should remove this stop and take people to a different market that doesn't take advantage of your customers. The second shopping stop was nice and the rest of the tour was good.
