I had a fantastic time! Matthias and Mosiah were funny and engaging guides. The photographer also made posing fun and took beautiful photos. Highly recommend if you're on a short trip and want to do everything.
Thank you so much, Fatema! We’re happy to hear you had such a fantastic time with Matthias and Mosiah and enjoyed the photos as well. It’s great to know the tour helped you experience so much in one day. Thank you for recommending us! Laura Ocean Tours
Some very beautiful discoveries of Tulum, cenotes, and Mexican turtles. Thank you to Karina for her kindness and the passion with which she helps us discover her country!
Merci beaucoup pour votre commentaire ! Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié ces belles découvertes aux côtés de Karina. Nous ne manquerons pas de lui transmettre vos mots, elle sera très heureuse de les lire. Au plaisir de vous accueillir à nouveau au Mexique ! Laura Ocean Tours Mexico
Super nice excursion to explore a bit this beautiful destination. Our guide, Tomas, is very knowlegable, very kind and attentive with a great sense of humor and lots of patience. His English and German are excellent! Also our driver Jorge was so kind and we felt super safe in his van. Fernando documented the day with his beautiful photos. Thanks to the team, you rock!!!
Thank you for such a wonderful review! We’re delighted that Tomas made the experience both informative and fun, and that Jorge and Fernando helped make the day feel safe and memorable. We’ll be very happy to share your kind words with the whole team. Thank you for choosing Ocean Tours Mexico! Warm regards, Ocean Tours Mexico
All around had a great experience! The guide has a good sense of humor, lots of beautiful things to see!
Sounds like a great day! We’re glad you enjoyed the beautiful sights and had some laughs along the way with your guide. Thank you for joining us and sharing your experience! Warm regards, Valentina | Ocean Tours
The drive to Tulum can be over an hour so be sure to eat before hand and use the restroom. Be sure to bring your water shoes, an umbrella (to keep the sun off you), a snack (because lunch is late), a reusable water bottle (preferably metal and fill with ice at the hotel before leaving), comfortable shoes for walking, and dry clothes for the end of day. Eric was kind and informative. Seeing the ruins and learning history was a great experience, but my favorite part of the excursion was the cenote. During the snorkeling the fish swam right next to us, we saw multiple turtles and stingrays. The water was not the clearest. However, the photographer captured stunning pictures of the animals and us. There was a lot of time snorkeling and although one person claimed to not be a good swimmer he did fine. I did feel as if I had motion sickness while in the water and was glad to finally go back to the boat.
Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review and helpful tips for future travelers! We’re glad you enjoyed the variety of experiences throughout the day, especially the cenote and the incredible marine life. We also appreciate your kind words about Eric and our photography team. Thank you for choosing Ocean Tours Mexico. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back for another adventure!
We are a family of 5. This was a great tour. Pick up was at our Hotel, right on time. Read the fine print because an additional $25 per person was needed for taxes - which bumped up the price even more for us. Tulum was very hot, bring a steal water bottle because plastic bottles are not allowed on site. The tour guide offered a cooler of water which was greatly appreciated. Tour guide was knowledgeable, but my 9 year old was bored.. (no fault of the tour guide) -Snorkeling was great, but the best was the caves. It was an all day trip for us, enjoyed it, left with some great pics! Oh and bring a water proof camera case!
Thank you for sharing such a detailed review! We’re very happy to hear that your family enjoyed the tour, especially the snorkeling and the cenote caves, and that the transportation and your guide made the day run smoothly. We also appreciate you mentioning the additional park fees and the restrictions at Tulum. Providing clear information before the tour is very important to us, and feedback like yours helps future travelers prepare for their experience. Thank you for choosing Ocean Tours Mexico for your family adventure. We hope those great photos bring back wonderful memories for years to come! 😊

Little support infrastructure. Very hot and no restaurants. Eat only what is available on the walk.
Muito obrigado por compartilhar a sua opinião. Lamentamos que alguns aspectos da experiência não tenham atendido às suas expectativas. Como nossas atividades acontecem em áreas naturais protegidas, a infraestrutura e os serviços disponíveis são limitados para preservar o ambiente. Além disso, o almoço incluído é organizado para que o cronograma do passeio seja cumprido da melhor forma possível. Agradecemos muito o seu feedback, pois ele nos ajuda a continuar melhorando. Esperamos ter a oportunidade de recebê-lo novamente em uma futura experiência.
We had a great tour with Paco- he was super knowledgeable about not only the Tulum ruins but also the general area and Mayan life- he was able to answer the MANY questions our children asked with good humour. Our personal highlight was the cenote which was beautiful and other-worldly, although I also loved seeing turtles while we snorkelled. I would say 2 things for travelling with kids- Tulum ruins are definitely hot so bring non-plastic drinks for sure and big sun hats!! Also the snorkelling was quite challenging with the waves, so I would only consider this if your kids are confident in the ocean or have snorkelled before! It was great to do so much in 1 day and made great memories.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review! We’re delighted to hear that you had such a memorable day with Paco. His passion for Mayan history and culture truly shines through, and we're so glad he was able to answer all of your children's questions with knowledge and good humor. We'll be sure to share your kind words with him. It’s wonderful to know that the cenote was the highlight of your day and that you also enjoyed snorkeling with the turtles. Experiences like these are what make the Riviera Maya so special. We also appreciate your helpful tips for families traveling with children. Your advice about staying hydrated and prepared for the heat at Tulum, as well as considering children's swimming confidence for the snorkeling activity, will certainly be valuable for future guests. Thank you again for choosing Ocean Tours and for recommending our experience. We hope to welcome your family back for another unforgettable adventure in the future!
