Got picked up at 7am in the lobby then dropped off downtown Playa del Carmen to stand in line and then pay for the reef taxes in a tourist shop. Waited there for quite some time to have another shuttle pick us and up and take us to Tulum.. Once at Tulum went into another shop and waited to finally start the tour. We took another shuttle to Akumal and we never received our lunch or snack. We didn't get back to hotel until around 3pm. It was a long day. If we knew the stops before going to the ruins would take so long we probably would not have booked this one.

Awesome snorkel experience

The best part was snorkeling with the turtles. It was absolutely amazing and the guide did a great job! Unfortunately the rest of the tour seemed pretty disorganized. Lots of unnecessary wait time, and the tour in Tulum seemed rushed. It wasn’t the guides fault though, he seemed to be on a deadline from the company. Overall it was a good experience.
Amazing experience!

It was a great experience, Both activities were worth going. Our tourist guide - Lucina Verduzco was great! She picked us up on time and very friendly, she gave us a lot of explanation on the Maya culture and good introduction on the Tulum ruins, she also took well care of us during the whole journey!
Thanks Adrian!

Our guide Adrian was great. He made up for the fact that i was told to be at a destination by 720. Was told be on time and my bus didn't leave for another hour. All the other tours we went on were on time. I saw tour bus after tour bus from other companies leave and we are still standing there. ADRIAN was great though. Super attentive always checking to make sure we were ok and having fun. All the attractions were amazing. Swimming with the turtles was the highlight.
Great sites, poor logistics

Tour guide was knowledgeable and sea life in Akumal Bay was amazing. Tour was somewhat disorganized and spent too much time waiting around. - we were at pickup location at specified 7:40am, waited 45 minutes for van to take us to central pickup location, then another 45 minute wait to check in. Tour agent gave us wrong wrist band, so had to keep showing ticket to prove we paid for both Tulum & Swimming with Turtles. Tulum guide was good, but site was crowded. Lunch not included, but did not stop at a place for us to buy lunch. Switched to 3rd van for Swimming with Turtles. It was a long day (7:40am-3:00pm) with too much wasted time.

Awesome experience. Tulum was beautiful and got to see many turtles! Would have left 5 stars, but the tour says it will be 5-6 hours. We were at 8 hours by the time we got back to the hotel. The only reason we booked the tour was because we thought it would be short! Also there was quite a lot of confusion between the guides in tulum. Also there were no snacks provided as stated. All in all a great tour, but definitely some timing issues and misstatements on the website!
