I cannot recommend them highly enough. Friendly and easy to work with. Transportation to and from Cancun Airport to Cozumel was seamless. Snorkeling tour was spot on. Everything was on time and communication was excellent.

Highly recommend, great day!
We had a lovely day privately touring the beautiful island of Cozumel in a jeep with our local guide, Leo. Leo was extremely knowledgeable and took us to many beautiful spots that we would not have found without him. We had a lovely lunch by the beach. Travelling with our 3 and 5 year old, he understood their patience was not the greatest and kept the tour interesting and fun for them. I highly recommend VIP Tours Cozumel :)
Response from the operator: Thanks for the awesome review!!! thanks for letting us take care of your day! We were more than happy . Welcome to the Vip Tours Family and we hope to see you back here very very soon!

A great company!
Arranged for transportation between the airport and hotel through VIP Tours. Everything was perfect! Communication was easy and very responsive. Pricing for a private van for four adults as very reasonable. Driver was waiting for us on arrival and right on time for our departure. Rogelio and VIP Tours were great to work with! A class act! They do a fantastic job with all kinds of private tours, too. Cannot recommend highly enough!
Response from the operator: Thanks for the kind words! Was a pleasure taking care of your needs! Welcome to the VIP Tours Family!!

Great company
Great communication. I let them know what we wanted to see and they let me know how long to plan and they made all the arrangements. We did the atvs to the jade cavern, punta sur, the Mayan cacao company, and the Mayan bee sanctuary. They also drove us around town and we got to sample local ice cream and a couple of really good restaurants. The guides Roger and Christopher were very knowledgeable and professional. They helped with pictures during our excursions.
Response from the operator: Thanks for sharing Yolanda! It was our pleasure welcoming you and your party. It was a great day, thanks for choosing us and letting us take care of your day. Welcome to the VIP Tours Family, can't wait to see you back here next time to try new activities and create new memories!

The BEST of the best
We had the best time with Rogelio and VIP Tours Cozumel. Delta canceled our direct flight to Cozumel, and I made the best decision with choosing VIP tours to get me from Cancun to Cozumel. If it had been only me, I probably would’ve just gotten myself there, but with two small grandchildren, and a physically limited husband, I wanted to make sure that everything went smoothly. From the moment we stepped out of the doors of the Cancun airport, Rogelio‘s group took over. They got us to Playa Del Carmen, where we met Rogelio, and he rode the ferry with us to Cancun and put us in our taxi van to our hotel. Even more importantly, when my husband‘s walker broke while we were there, Rogelio reassured me that my husband would not have to walk at all through Cancun. He had tricycle taxis waiting for us. They carried all of our luggage and my husband to the van pick up point. Again, everything went so smoothly. My only regret is that I did not use VIP Tours for our snorkeling excursion. I had already booked a snorkeling excursion before I met Rogelio, so I really only thought VIP tours was a transfer service at the time of our meeting. Our snorkeling excursion did not go nearly as well as our transfers, so I really regret not using Rogelio for both! VIP tours is the best! We will definitely be remembering who to use on our next trip for all our needs while in Cozumel.
Response from the operator: Thanks for sharing your experience, we had an amazing time welcoming you and being part of your vacations. Welcome to the VIP Tours Family, and we hope to see you back here next time for the snorkel experience!

Why this scores 70
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Van Service: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cozumel.
How much does Private Van Service cost?
+
Prices start at $80 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 Private Van Service 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 Private Van Service worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 22 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 Private Van Service?
+
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 Van Service 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 Private Van Service?
+
Around 8 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 Private Van Service 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.
