Every single worker knew perfect English, almost as if it was mandatory to be hired. The quality of the rides were amazing and the theme of the park was very immersive. The food selections were cooked amazing and the beverages were on point. I recommend this for people of all ages. Doing it at night definitely added an edge that I highly recommend over your traditional morning adventure.”

Sail from Cancun to Isla Mujeres for reef snorkeling, one hour at Playa Norte, and a buffet lunch at a private beach club. Music and an open bar continue onboard. Fernando has led the lively entertainment on some departures, but transport and organization can vary.

“Our disastrous trip began with being told the wrong pick-up point, so the bus left without us. The company apologised and rebooked us. On our second try, the driver never showed, and we were told to take a taxi, which they agreed to cover. We barely made it to the crowded boat. We only stopped for 25 minutes at the beach, not the advertised hour. Later, we were encouraged to book a golf cart tour. The carts were rusty, and ours barely worked. After a small bump into a tree, we were told to switch carts. The tour itself was pleasant, but back at the dock we were accused of…”
