    SCAM!

    Photos are misleading, you are going to be in a coral filled area. We barely saw any animals and not only that we didn’t even see any colorful fish. The tequila tasting photo is misleading. We had broken masks and were swallowing the salt water due to this problem. We were told to follow the line but when you’re in the water it’s hard to see where the line is actually going. You get stuck behind people going the wrong way and not to mention going over the coral instead of around it. This was a scary experience and wasn’t fun at all. We had to walk through thick seaweed to get on and off the boat up to the waist. Multiple people experienced water going up their masks and goggles fogging up. The instructor told us to put our saliva in the googles to prevent fogging and that did absolutely nothing. We were cramped on a boat the photos made it see more private. The beachside lunch was a three big pieces of cold fried chicken on a flour tortilla….. we didn’t receive a menu. When I booked this trip I remembered seeing a photo of a lunch menu and when I looked back it was gone. Just don’t waste your time.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear about your experience and the concerns you have shared. We appreciate your comments and will review them internally with the appropriate teams. We hope to have the opportunity to improve your experience in the future.

    THE BEST EVER!!! Maui & Francis ROCK!!

    Such a wonderful experience! Maui, Francis, Jackie, and the entire team were so welcoming and kind from start to finish. We booked the VIP snorkeling experience along with the tequila tasting, and it was honestly one of the highlights of our trip. Everyone was attentive, knowledgeable, and clearly loves what they do. We got to see a nurse shark, which was incredible, and the photos turned out amazing. Having them taken by a former National Geographic photographer was such a cool bonus. The whole experience was beautiful, fun, and so freeing. I would definitely recommend booking this excursion without hesitation. My only suggestion is to bring your own snorkeling gear, especially goggles, if you have them, just to make sure they fit comfortably.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear Maui, Francis, Jackie, and the team made your experience so special. We hope to see you again soon. What To Do In Cancun Customer service team

    The guide landy and her colleague/camera man were great ,friendly and attentive. tequila tasting with Francis was fabulous. The little restaurant where they served tacos was nice . Great excursion however they will not allow you to bring your go pro to record your snorkle experience . They're guide will take pictures that you will have to pay for later if you want them .

    Awesone natural encounter

    They could not pick me up at my hotel, so I had to get to downtown Playa del Carmen on my own. The reef is wonderful. There was a lot of sun, which allowed us to see many colors and fish in the surrounding area. The guides were very kind and explained the rules for entering the natural habitat of all these creatures. It was worth going into the sea. Other activities they have on land are also fun. The food is okay, although they could serve more generous portions. The transportation could also be improved.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear you enjoyed the reef and the experience overall. We appreciate your comments regarding transportation and food, and will review them internally. We hope to see you again soon. What To Do In Cancun Customer service team

    Terrible mis sold, grotty snorkeling

    Don't bother booking with these con artists. That was the worst trip ever, I'm just about to put it all over the internet, you pick up a 5ft10 girl and a 6ft2 man from Hyatt vivid and we have to ride all the way to the snorkeling on an illegal front middle seat and a front seat without working seatbelts. We get to the snorkeling, and it's the worse snorkeling we've ever done. This may be the 2nd biggest reef but your location is a sea meadow, absolutely rubbish. 20 mins of swimming through seaweed and with only seagrass to sea and barely any life. Murky and pointless Get back and rhey beg tips off us when we've already paid over £100 for two, for a terrible snorkeling experience. Absolute chaos. We arrived uncomfortable and with nerve pain from the cramped seated and hot engine seat with no air conditioning. We then are forced into a tequila tasting we were happy to skip. All an exercise to force us to buy more things. The free time walking the town isn't free time it is forcing us through market stalls to be pestered. No free time as stated. Off to the restaurant, and no vegan options. Food was disgusting then more sob stories for tips. Kept you there for an undue amount of time with nothing to do and uncomfortable. Had to pay 3 dollar for a water. Only one free water given between 820am and 4pm! Finally get on the bus to go back to the hotel. No air con, forced again on a tiny seat in the front over the engine as the bus was rammed and over sold. Can't not put legs anywhere ..bruised at every bump. I notice we are 5 th stop so took ages. Unbearable When asked to go into the back when others exited, the driver said no after the first people left. Get to the 2nd hotel and the manager comes out and says there has been an accident and police guards are there... We are then forced into back!!!! So the police don't see... But refused when we begged! The driver then drives us in and the hotel man reminds him to put his seatbelt on!!! In the phone the whole journey, music with swear words blasting out. I am livid, no decent snorkeling, no town free time, and no lunch and agony in a van in illegal seats and no air con. this is not as described. Both me and my husband are disgusted. We are both still in this hell bus and now the driver has to go back as he's just completely missed a guests stop. Worst trip ever. Tips begged by everyone, no photos allowed even though go pros are not lithium. All to sell photos of things you don't get to see! Avoid. Customer services doesn't care at all.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry to hear about your experience and the concerns you have raised. This is not the level of service or safety we aim to provide. Your comments regarding transportation, organization, and overall experience will be escalated and reviewed internally with the appropriate teams. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and take your feedback seriously. What To Do In Cancun Customer service team

    3-in-1 Puerto Morelos: Snorkeling, Tequila & Beachside Lunch: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cancun.

    How much does 3-in-1 Puerto Morelos: Snorkeling, Tequila & Beachside Lunch cost?

    +

    Prices start at $29 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cancun usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 3-in-1 Puerto Morelos: Snorkeling, Tequila & Beachside Lunch take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cancun is not rushed.

    Is 3-in-1 Puerto Morelos: Snorkeling, Tequila & Beachside Lunch worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 68 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cancun, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 3-in-1 Puerto Morelos: Snorkeling, Tequila & Beachside Lunch?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is 3-in-1 Puerto Morelos: Snorkeling, Tequila & Beachside Lunch suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 3-in-1 Puerto Morelos: Snorkeling, Tequila & Beachside Lunch?

    +

    Around 24 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cancun can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cancun and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 3-in-1 Puerto Morelos: Snorkeling, Tequila & Beachside Lunch start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cancun within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Cancun?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Cancun experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Chichen Itza from Cancun : Cenote, Valladolid and Mayan Cuisine, Early Access to Chichen Itza with optional pick-up, Early morning Chichen Itza Tour: Cenote and Tequila Tasting. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Cancun?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Cancun?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in 3-in-1 Puerto Morelos: Snorkeling, Tequila & Beachside Lunch?

    +

    Included: Guided visit to most important venues of Puerto Morelos; Free time to stroll the town on your own; Snorkel Sesion in the National Reef Park; Use of Snorkelling equipment; and Roundtrip transportation from most Cancun and Riviera Maya hotels.

    What languages is 3-in-1 Puerto Morelos: Snorkeling, Tequila & Beachside Lunch offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for 3-in-1 Puerto Morelos: Snorkeling, Tequila & Beachside Lunch?

    +

    Is 3-in-1 Puerto Morelos: Snorkeling, Tequila & Beachside Lunch wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to 3-in-1 Puerto Morelos: Snorkeling, Tequila & Beachside Lunch if the weather is bad?

    +
