“Fascinating tour of the ruins. Knowledgeable guide. However, the AC compressor in the ceiling of the bus leaked on our heads the entire ride to the ruins. Unable to sit in those same seats on the return trip, we took our kids' seats, and they sat on our laps the one-hour trip back. We were told that the bus leaves one hour after docking and we waited an additional hour past that time for late comers, which shortened our visit to both locations.”

Armando was our boat captain and he was very friendly even though he spoke little English and was a good driver. We were able to swim in the colorful lagoon. Lunch was good at a local restaurant. Thoroughly enjoyed our tour and would highly recommend Raphael.”

Escape Costa Maya crowds at a private beach with food, drinks, kayaks, snorkeling, and attentive service, plus practical tips on seaweed and transport.

“We had a great time at this little resort! Getting out of the port is confusing, but most workers will direct you where to go. It’s very secluded (took a taxi 30 mins through the jungle), which was nerve wracking at first but ended up being nice after being on the cruise ship. Drinks and food included - ceviche was amazing! Water still had a lot of seaweed, but there was a little area for us to wade in. They had kayaks for us to take out and look at the reefs, which was cool.”

Review of the Chacchoben ruins from Costa Maya, with a small group, local guide, drinks, snacks, transfers, and practical cruise-day tips.

“Our guide was Frank with driver Miguel. We had a wonderful time learning about the history of the Chacchoben people. Frank was very knowledgeable and went out of his way to answer all our questions. He was kind and helped me up the stairs so that i can could keep my balance. On our ride to Chacchoben Ruins he told us about the people that now live in the area. We recommend Frank and Miguel should you visit the ruins. This personal tour was the way to go then being in a large group. We were never rushed and did what we wanted.”

Review of the Chacchoben Mayan Ruins excursion from Costa Maya, with guide tips, timing, value, transport, accessibility, and booking advice.

“Our guide was very knowledgeable of the ruins and Mayan history in general. There is about 30 to 40 min walk to the ruins but some benches available if you need to sit down for a bit. We stopped on the way back at a roadside stand for some honey pineapple that was very good. Bring bug spray because mosquitoes might be an issue. Overall, if you want to learn some history on the area then this trip is for you.”

Our second dive was amazing. My fellow diver and I have renamed the dive site to Manatee. Thank you so much for an amazing dive”
