About this experience
Start your day with a hotel pickup or directly at the marina, then head out to open sea through the spectacular mangrove channels. The bar opens soon after departure.

Trip was fun but communications very poor. Told wrong departure location so had to get a second taxi to correct marina. Crew nice but hour on Isla a peddlers swarm so not able to walk around and relax. Good sights while snorkeling

Worst experience! Do not book!
This is the worst excursion tour you can book. It was the worst part of our vacation. Let me tell you why. 1. They give every reason to charge you more. Different booking times, pick up/drop off, etc. they only want your money. At the end, it’s tip tip tip or rude service and dirty looks. 2. Charged a docking fee at the port in Cancun. They don’t tell you that. 3. Very unorganized. Came back to our pick up spot 20 minutes later to pick up another couple. 4. Snorkeling was canceled. Then they said we can swim at the first stop but canceled it after they almost lost a passenger because they didn’t anchor the boat properly. Passenger had to be saved by another boat while another guest almost got sucked by the propeller. Guests were screaming to the captain to turn off the boat. Scary! No one wanted to go in the water after that. 5. You’re on the boat more than you’re exploring. There are 3 stops for the tour and it’s about 45 minutes minimum to get to each stop. 6. Food is disgusting. Don’t say I didn’t tell you so. 7. Requested for adults only tour. Boat should hold 30 people max. There was about 50 people on board including 10 kids. We were the slowest boat on the ocean. Everyone passed us by. We got back to our hotel by 8:30pm! 8. You would think the excursion is for tourists right? They spoke only in Spanish on the speaker. Other American tourists had to translate to us what they were saying. 9. Top deck speaker wasn’t working. We had no idea what they were saying.
Response from the operator: Dear jasongW968XD Thank you for leaving a review, we appreciate your thorough feedback. We are very sorry to hear your experience was not what you envisioned for your day. We clearly missed the mark. The pickup route should be streamlined and direct, we have alerted our provider of this. The Dock Fee is mentioned on our Product Page and we mention iit directly when we send the Confirmation email with the pickup details. In regards to the snorkel situation, we have reached out to the crew and staff to get some insight into what happened and will be taking actions to ensure this does not happen again. This is not an Adults Only activity, we actually do not offer any Adult Only tours. Our crew does its best to accomodate both english and spanish speaking tourists, any of them can gladly translate for your convenience. We hope you had a good time during your visit in Cancun.

Wonderful time
It was an amazing trip! Everyone on the cruise was wonderful and super friendly. They kept us up on drinks and fun. The lunch was delicious on Isla mujeres, they waited for us on the cruise when we were running a little late. The island was beautiful. I recommend this to anyone looking for laid back trip and not too crowded.
Response from the operator: Greetings! Thank you for sharing your amazing experience about our Isla Mujeres Catamaran. We are so happy to hear that your experience was amazing! We appreciate you to recommend us! Hope to see you back again soon! The Cancun Travel Experience Team

Day trip to Isla Mujeres
Great excursion!!! Our transportation was almost an hour late to pick us up from our hotel but the driver was apologetic and nice. Once on the boat, they explained what the trip would entail, in both Spanish and English. The ride was smooth and my boyfriend enjoyed the snorkeling. We sat at on the top deck for the ride into Isla Mujeres…just beautiful. We ate lunch at a very authentic restaurant and then sailed to the north side of the island. We laid on the beach and enjoyed the sun for an hour and then sailed back to Cancun. The atmosphere on the boat was very loud and fun. Drinks were flowing and the staff were absolutely the best. It was a pretty good trip to isla Mujeres. Don’t know if I would do it again though.
Response from the operator: Dear Divatraveler50 Thank you for leaving a review on our Discovering Isla Mujeres on a Double Decker Catamaran Experince, we appreciate your honest feedback. Traffic and delays can be problematic, we pologize for the tardiness, our drivers do their best to arrive at everyones location in time.

HORRIBLE DO NOT BOOK
Extremely disappointed and upset with this company. I messaged them the day before to confirm pickup time. They told me pickup was at 11:20 and wait in front of the hotel at 11:10. I waited outside from 11:10 to 11:35 then I finally messaged the driver on the WhatsApp number provided. No response from the driver. At 11:45 I called the company and they said that the driver was stuck in traffic and wasn’t going to pick me up. I could either take a taxi to the dock or get a refund but if I took a taxi to the the dock I wouldn’t make it on time. I am so upset because if they had told me at 11:10 that they weren’t going to pick me up I could have made it in a taxi. 0/10 for communication, I can’t believe they would just decide to not pick me up and not tell me. Also, it was too late in the day to book an excursion with another company so they totally screwed me over. Do not book with them through trip advisor or Viator, use a different company.
Response from the operator: Dear Julie_S, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and feedback. We will definitely share your comments with our provider since we completely depend on their operations. Unfortunately traffic in Cancun area is sometimes unpredictable and this time it slipped out of our hands and caused a delay on all of our guests pickups. We completely understand the activity was not provided since this delay was not properly advised from our provider's driver so we can properly reach out with timely options. This being said, we apologize for the inconvenients caused due to this situation and a full refund was issued for your booking. We hope next time you visit this amazing destination we have the opportunity to provide you with the service and experience we enjoy deliverling to our guests. The Travel Experience Group

Why this scores 54
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Discovering Isla Mujeres on a Double Decker Catamaran: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cancun.
How much does Discovering Isla Mujeres on a Double Decker Catamaran cost?
+
Prices start at $59 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 Discovering Isla Mujeres on a Double Decker Catamaran take?
+
Plan for about 7 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 Discovering Isla Mujeres on a Double Decker Catamaran worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.8/5 across 12 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 Discovering Isla Mujeres on a Double Decker Catamaran?
+
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 Discovering Isla Mujeres on a Double Decker Catamaran suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Discovering Isla Mujeres on a Double Decker Catamaran?
+
Around 4 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 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Discovering Isla Mujeres on a Double Decker Catamaran 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 Early Access to Chichen Itza All Inclusive with Valladolid and Cenote Swim, Whale Shark Tour from Cancun, Playa del Carmen, Tulum and Riviera Maya, Small-Group 3 Hidden Cenotes Adventure with 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.
