★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,888 reviews · 6 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $169Our pick

Tulum ruins, a cenote cave swim, and Yal Ku Lagoon snorkeling plus beachside lunch, with hotel pickup from Playa del Carmen.

“Lots of pros: well organized and fun tour for adults, teens and kids who can swim, small group 12 in a van/3 parties so pickup was fast. BEST part was our guide Lalo and driver Jajo. Lalo was super knowledgeable and entertaining, and he cares deeply about cultural and human connections. He taught us a lot about the history of Mayan culture, Mexico and its amazing people. Cons: worst part was that we had no towels and were freezing after 2 cold swim (same for other family with 4 younger kids who were real troopers). We all assumed Cancun Adventures would provide towels… I checked listing and re-read emails they…”

4.2-Hour Snorkeling in Two Spots of Tulum’s Reef

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 303 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $51Best value

Two-hour snorkeling in Tulum National Park: two reef stops with turtles and stingrays plus Mayan ruins views from the boat.

“This was a great experience! We got a little turned around in Jaguar Park trying to find the spot to meet. But once we found German and his crew, who were kind enough to wait for us, we had such a great time! We saw sea turtles, rays, so many colorful reef fish, even a blowfish! The coral was all stunning, it was wonderful to see the diversity underwater. I highly recommend these guys, they know the food spots!”

5.Snorkeling tour with Sea Turtles & Cenote, half day.

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 56 reviews

Half-day Cancun snorkeling with sea turtles in Akumal plus swim and photos at Cenote Yax-Muul, guided by language groups.

“Excellent activity, amazing guide, great support staff. We saw lots of wildlife (turtles, stingrays, puffer fish) and the cenote was beautiful with lots of great information. Equipment was provided and very good. Transportation was timely and comfortable. I did not appreciate the 35 dollar per person fee that was not included in the booking price. It was listed in the “not included” section and easy to miss (most on our tour missed it). This was expected to be paid in cash without a card payment option at the end of the tour. An ATM was offered, or payment through a link; using the link, the 70 dollar fee became 86…”
