Absolutely the best tour and taxi company ❤️❤️❤️❤️
These guys are awesome and fantastic. Great value for the money with truly below or at par with their competitors. Very honest and true to their words. They do not push for selling stuff to you. Our driver Johnny was an wonderful person, calm, kind and polite. If we are coming back to Costa Maya, we certainly will choose this company and especially would ask for Johnny as our driver.

Great Experience !!
I wanted to share feedback on our recent experience. We had a great time, and Johnny was a very knowledgeable and safe driver. Our family of six visited the Chacchoben ruins and the beach, which included a snorkeling trip to the second-largest coral reef in the world. Afterward, we had lunch at a fish restaurant. The total cost for everything was approximately USD $650 which is great for a family of 6

Awesome timeOver all
I loved the excursions the only thing I did not like was that for the Mayan Tenples, tour Guide talked so much and had us standing in the middle of the dirt walkway for long periods of times. There’s bugs it’s hot and I want to keep the pass moving walk and talk. I kept interrupting him to please let’s walk and talk. The beach the sales people were just too much they kept coming by over and over and over again it was extremely difficult to simply enjoy and relax. The tourist guide was honest the best he had drinks ready for us and he was so so patient and sweet. I hope they find a better beach

Cancellation
We didn’t get to enjoy this tour, but wanted to leave a review as we were very satisfied with customer service. At the last minute, our cruise ship was unable to dock in Costa Maya due to unsafe weather conditions. We had to cancel on very short notice. Response from customer service through the app was very prompt and we were issued a full refund the same day (despite the written policy requiring 24-hour notice).

Great Excursion
I really liked the driver and the tour guide. The whole experience was great. Next time I’d pass on the beach portion, but it was still okay…just kind of small and cramped.

Why this scores 69
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Tour to Chacchoben Mayan Temples & Beach: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Costa Maya.
How much does Private Tour to Chacchoben Mayan Temples & Beach cost?
+
Prices start at $85 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Costa Maya usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Tour to Chacchoben Mayan Temples & Beach 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 Costa Maya is not rushed.
Is Private Tour to Chacchoben Mayan Temples & Beach worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 47 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Costa Maya, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour to Chacchoben Mayan Temples & Beach?
+
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 Private Tour to Chacchoben Mayan Temples & Beach 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 Private Tour to Chacchoben Mayan Temples & Beach?
+
Around 16 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 Costa Maya 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 Costa Maya and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Tour to Chacchoben Mayan Temples & Beach 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 Costa Maya 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 Costa Maya?
+
On Outty we rank every Costa Maya experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Chacchoben & Bacalar Combo Excursion Costa Maya, Costa Maya Shore Excursion Chacchoben Day Trip, Bacalar – 7 Colors Lagoon Excursión Costa Maya. 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 Costa Maya?
+
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 Costa Maya?
+
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.
