Cozumel · MAYAN RUINS & CULTURE
San Gervasio is a shrine, not a pyramid city, and it rewards a guide who can explain what the crossing was for. The 15 below cover the site, the island museum and the villages, with entry costs and how long each takes.
Ride Cozumel trails by ATV, swim at Jade Caverns, and visit El Cedral’s Mayan temple and old church in a lively 3.5-hour tour.
“Cruise cancelled the stop in Cozumel because of the weather. No option for a refund or even partial refund due to no fault of my own.”
Learn ancient Mayan recipes at Ix Kool in Cozumel, with hands-on tortilla making, local dishes, drinks, history, and a generous meal.
“Great, like-new venue (Ix Kool restaurant). Good blend of professional video background on the Mayan link, hands on demonstration, do-it-yourself, and chef provided additional food. 3 different drinks, and at half a dozen different foods plus dessert. Nice change from all the tourist traps. Only 3 of us at our class so nicely personal too. Very well done!”
Explore Cozumel by buggy, from Mayan culture and tequila tasting to wave-carved rocks and warm natural pools at Chen Rio.
“Our guide Victor was the perfect host for a wonderful day touring Cozumel. A quick 45 minute ferry from Playa del Carmen offered a great day trip that did not disappoint. A great mix of Mayan history, tequila tasting, exploring the coast with a stop at a local beachfront taco stand for the absolute best fish tacos I've ever had, and snorkeling in the crystal clear waters where we saw so many beautiful fish and even a stingray! Victor seems to know everyone on the island, including the other tour guides who all mentioned he was the best of the best and we agree. What a day!”

Drive Cozumel by buggy, visit El Cedral and Otoch, eat fajitas, and snorkel at SkyReef in this lively five-hour island tour.
“The absolute worst experience! Do not book this tour with trip advisor or Viator! Fake tequila tour, very bad snorkeling, bad car/buggy. Gas gage wasn’t working, speedometer didn’t work but the worst part was the tour guide who scammed us and running a game on our stops with his friends. Bad bad people. Do not book through Trip Advisor or Viator!!!”

Ride Cozumel’s rugged east coast by ATV, swim in a Mayan cenote, and finish with lunch and optional snorkeling at Playa Uvas.
“Awesome ATV ride for 5 of us. Not really the trails for a person that's never operated an ATV like one in our group. Very enjoyable to those of us that have. Beautiful beaches, great lunch, and guides that care about your enjoyment. That alone was outstanding.”

Review of Cozumel’s 5.5-hour private Jeep tour, with Mayan food, snorkeling, beaches, tequila, and a freshwater cenote.
“It's all gone wrong. To begin with, the pickup location was not the right one. Afterwards the visit was a triad. The guide asked us to change the cenote because it was supposedly not possible to bathe in jade. We've had a puddle. They've made several stops for you to buy souvenirs.Auto-translated”
Review of Cozumel’s off-road Mayan adventure, with San Gervasio ruins, Jade Cavern, snorkeling, lunch, and practical booking tips.
“It was a lot of fun. The buggies are old and break down a lot but there is a mechanic that travels with you and gets you going if you break down. We spent too much time at the ruins and Tequila tasting to be able to go back to the beach club and snorkel after our lunch. This is because we were on a cruise ship and had to be back at 330 pm. Driving thru town and the gravel pit was fun. If you are on a cruise ship do the 830 am one so you will have time to use the beach club. We went for 930…”
Explore Cozumel’s Mayan caves, jungle ruins, crocodile habitat, beaches, tequila, and a fresh Mexican lunch on a private five-hour tour.

Ride muddy jungle trails to Cozumel’s Jade Cavern, taste tequila, snorkel at Playa Uvas, and enjoy lunch for $79.
“Do not expect to be refunded if you have bad weather. We are having a huge downpour this morning, but they are not canceling the tours. They have told me that the lightning I witnessed is not actually happening and that the weather is actually perfect for this activity. I’m told they are very experienced and I should just trust their expertise. And I’m also told that they do not offer refunds for bad weather. I definitely won’t be using this tour operator in the future and probably won’t be booking through Viator again.”
Review of Cozumel’s ATV, Mayan cenote, and Playa Uvas tour, with practical advice on roads, lunch, snorkeling, transport, and value.
“déçu de la qualité de la ballade en quad qui n'a duree qu'à peine 1h sur les 4h30 de l'activité. moitié route et moitié chemin de cailloux. aucune sensation !”
Review of Cozumel’s private Jeep tour to Punta Sur, Otoch Mayan Park, lunch, snorkeling, tastings, guides, value, and drawbacks.
“We had a great time exploring the island with Claudio, who has a fantastic, outgoing personality, and vast knowledge of the area, which kept us engaged throughout the day. He went the extra mile to make sure that we had everything we needed and that we enjoyed ourselves. We saw many parts of the island, but the highlight probably was the natural beauty of the Punta Sur region with the animals, the mangroves and the beautiful ocean. The tequilla, honey and chocolate presentations were also interesting. Overall we were really happy with what was provided via the booking itself. Thanks again for everything Claudio!”
