The marina was much closer to our hotel than on past excursions, giving us plenty of time to get back and have dinner. I'm not sure about the reviews calling it a scam. They were up front about hotel pick-up time and were available via live chat when the driver was a few minutes behind schedule. This was a very fun trip, and we would gladly book with total snorkel again!”

We started off with snorkeling that took approximately 1+hrs and visited 4 snorkeling locations, afterwards parasailing took about 15-20 mins with a magnificent view of cancun, and finally we jet skied for 30 mins! Jet sky is pretty challenging because you need to have balance otherwise you fall but your guide is there to help and is fun! Pics and vids are not included but for snorkeling and parasailing i think its worth the money $100 usd. Your allowed to bring your own camera gear under your own responsibility. In conclusion, 3 hour adventure and highly would recommend it.”
