Paolo and Martin and the...
Paolo and Martin and the rest of the staff were very friendly and attentive. The water was too rough to snorkle at the reef. They explained we would not be able to see much underwater so we went to the second location. There we could paddle board and snorkel but it was a small area to swim and the water was not clear from the boats coming in and out. Would recommend when the ocean is calm but not on very rough days.

Worth the price
Staff were excellent. Incredibly attentive to guests and quick with drink refills. This was my 2nd time booking this excursion and would not hesitate to go again with future vacations.

We had a great time. It started a little slow going through the checking and boarding, but everything was great once we were aboard and underway. The crew were very accommodating and the sailboat seemed well maintained.

Riviera Maya Luxury Snorkeling Cruise with Lunch and Drinks: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tulum.
How much does Riviera Maya Luxury Snorkeling Cruise with Lunch and Drinks 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 Tulum usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Riviera Maya Luxury Snorkeling Cruise with Lunch and Drinks 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 Tulum is not rushed.
Is Riviera Maya Luxury Snorkeling Cruise with Lunch and Drinks worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 79 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 669 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tulum, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Riviera Maya Luxury Snorkeling Cruise with Lunch and Drinks?
+
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 Riviera Maya Luxury Snorkeling Cruise with Lunch and Drinks 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 Riviera Maya Luxury Snorkeling Cruise with Lunch and Drinks?
+
Around 234 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 Tulum 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 Tulum and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Riviera Maya Luxury Snorkeling Cruise with Lunch and Drinks 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 Tulum 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 Tulum?
+
On Outty we rank every Tulum experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Chichen Itza from Playa with cenote, Valladolid and Mayan cuisine, Day Tour: Tulum Cenote and Swimming with Turtles From Cancun, Tulum Ruins, Turtles in Akumal and Cenote tour. 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 Tulum?
+
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 Tulum?
+
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.
