Not a good experience overall - Despite having assurance that children 6 years old and up could snorkel, they would not allow my 8 year old or 11 year old snorkel. Further, they ran out of masks and many of the fins were broken. Isla Contoy was beautiful.

Do not recommend - Do not go on this trip if you have kids under 12 years old. My 9 year old (who is a strong swimmer and snorkeled in open water just the day before) was heartbroken when we got to the snorkeling stop and they said she couldn't go because the minimum is 12 for "insurance reasons." Seeing her cry and be upset is not my idea of a good time on vacation. THIS AGE MINIMUM WAS NOT COMMUNICATED ON THE TOUR DESCRIPTION, IN ANY OF THE EMAILS, OR ANYWHERE ON THE WEBSITE. There were a few nice aspects of the trip, the water is beautiful and so is Isla Contoy. The stop at Isla Mujeres was ok, but kind of a waste at only one hour. AND it was kind of shady how the "meetup" spot on the island happened to be some guy's diamond shop. Convenient! LOL. Also, a minor point but the boat in the picture for this trip is not the one you take - it's much bigger and there are a TON of people along. Sailing home from the island was extremely slow - 2 hours. We didn't pull into the dock until 6:20 pm. Bottom line, would I go back to Isla Contoy? Yes but NOT on this tour.

Cancun Mayan Tours violets tourists personal data - In 21st of November I took this excursion and my personal data have been used against my will. Cancun Mayan Travel has no control of what Contoy Adventures who is handling the tour is doing with your personal data. I have been forced to take a picture and was explained that this is for the registration when I clearly stated that Indont want any picture next to the old steering wheel. When I asked mother epmloyee who was boarding us, what they do with the pictures they told that they send it to the office and they are never deleted. When we were returning from the tour I saw the photographer with the printed pictures taken at the beginning and selling them to the tourists! It is third day I am fighting with Cancun Mayan Travel, Stap Travel & Tours viator.com to have a written confirmation that my picture has been deleted balexause after asking twice the photographer never deleted it. He just told me he that he deleted but it was never with my presence. Regarding the trip, the trip is horrible snorkeling is in the dark water and you never reach Playa Norte you have to walk by yourself 20 min. You are being guided to the store with diamonds to lose your precious time on Isla Mujeres. You have only one hour of free time on Isla Mujeres during lunch and 2 hours to reach by yourself Playa Norte so for the beach time you have o my one hour. The tour starts in Punta Sam which is super far from the hotel zone, there are many more trips from the hotel zone to Isla Mujeres. Absolutely don’t recommend it!
