    Meeting point was very...

    Meeting point was very hard to find but once we located our guide-Reyes was awesome. Clear boat crew, Angel & Joshi(team 12)were fantastic, snorkeling was fun & easy.

    Response from the operator: Dear guest, Thanks for your nice comments about Angel who indeed is amazing. We really enjoyed having you with us and hope to see you back soon Sincerely Ivan Sanchez

    Excellent excursion. ...

    Excellent excursion. Glass boat is phenomenal Lunch was yummy but the drive to get there was too long. Unsure why we had to travel such a distance with no great scenery on he way. Driving the buggies was fun in open air. Buggy had a shade covering which was beneficial.

    Response from the operator: Dear guest, It is so encouraging to read such nice comments. Thank you for being so nice and easy going. We love to have guests like you around who enjoy and appreciate the beauty of our Island. We hope to see you back soon Sincerely Ivan Sanchez

    Good tour but with flaws

    We were excited to use the buggies as seen on the pictures but instead we received a Nissan March that was cutout on each side with a net on top. That configuration seems to be quite common. The car was very old and has seen better days. The island itself was beautiful to travel around on. We got to the meeting point at 840am and start time was supposed to be 9am. I asked how many hours the trip takes and the guide mentioned 5-6 hrs. The vehicle didnt show up until 940am. Our first stop was at some statues where our guide (David) informed us about its history. Next was the clear boat tour. This took about 2-2.5 hrs. It was the most enjoyable part of the tour. It was already 1245 by the time we started heading back to the vehicles to get lunch. At this point, our guide mentioned that we won't be able to finish the entire tour because it will go beyond 5 hours and anything above 5hrs will cost $40 more. He seemed very flustered when he said that because in the beginning he mentioned that the tour would take 5-6 hrs. Nowhere in the package does it says we would have to pay an additional fee for extra hours. I told him we can exclude the chocolate, tequila, and honey tasting. He said fine and guided us to the lunch spot. It was about a 30 min drive. Lunch was enjoyable, especially sitting by the beach. Be prepared to pay extra for anything else besides the fajitas/taco which costs $10+. At this point it was 220pm and we told the guide to return to the port to make our port call by 4pm. For some reason David didnt seem happy because he said we could just swing by the tasting stations since an extra 20-30min extra would not matter, as we already went over the tour's expected timeframe. I kindly rejected the offer and we started heading back. We arrived at the original area by 3pm exactly and then David asked me to fill out a survey on paper. I gave him a tip and then he said how we wanted to pay for the extra hour ... I asked what extra hour. He said we went beyond the tour's expected timeframe of 6 hours and said we went beyond 6.5 hrs ... Well ... someone doesnt know how to do simple math haha 9am start time to 3pm is 6 hrs. He mentioned that the trip would take 5-6hrs and never mentioned anything about extra charges. Also, his cars were late by 40 min ... Anyways, he just stormed off mad and drove away. We could just chuckle at the situation. For anyone booking this trip ... Don't expect to get the buggy in the pictures, dont expect to finish within the 6hr time, and dont forget to pack $40 extra for every hour the guide miscalculated (needs to be cash ... strange)

    Cozumel Buggy Island Tour, Otoch Mayan Experience & Clear Boat: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Cozumel Buggy Island Tour, Otoch Mayan Experience & Clear Boat cost?

    +

    Prices start at $89 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cozumel usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Cozumel Buggy Island Tour, Otoch Mayan Experience & Clear Boat take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 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 Cozumel is not rushed.

    Is Cozumel Buggy Island Tour, Otoch Mayan Experience & Clear Boat worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 35 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cozumel, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Cozumel Buggy Island Tour, Otoch Mayan Experience & Clear Boat?

    +

    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 Cozumel Buggy Island Tour, Otoch Mayan Experience & Clear Boat suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Cozumel Buggy Island Tour, Otoch Mayan Experience & Clear Boat?

    +

    Around 12 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 Cozumel 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 Cozumel and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Cozumel Buggy Island Tour, Otoch Mayan Experience & Clear Boat 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 Cozumel 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 Cozumel?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Cozumel experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Jade Caverns and Mayan Village Cozumel ATV TOUR, Buggy, Beach & Snorkel Blast, ATV 4×4+Cenote+Snorkeling+Beach Club+ Lunch+Sabores de Cozumel. 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 Cozumel?

    +

    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 Cozumel?

    +

    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.
