★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 718 reviews · 5 to 6 hours (approx.) · from $74Our pick

Take a 5 to 6 hour private Jeep tour around Cozumel with a local guide such as Julio, Bibi, Carlos, or Charlie. Visit Mayan ruins, Punta Sur, El Mirador, local beaches, markets, and snorkeling spots, with lunch and equipment included. Extra entry fees and drinks apply.

“Gerry, our tour guide was absolutely amazing! We were a little iffy at first due to nobody replying back to my message on here as quickly as another tour did. Then when we got our directions we were told near the 7 eleven and it was a 2 minute walk(not). Since we were not given an address it was a little difficult getting out of the port and onto the street to find it. Once someone finally came and confirmed we were at the correct location we were fine.”

“Definitely not what is advertised. The jeep was not an open vehicle but a closed SUV type of jeep. No water or drinks. When I asked the driver said "I have 1 or 2 waters" so we returned to hotel to get our own. No offer to drive jeep... no choice of where to go. Driver said this is jeep tour and said the places we were going. We ended up not stopping at any places we had not previously seen before when in cozumel. I was interested in history etc and had to ask about the areas we were going to and then driver discussed. The snorkeling was also…”

The van was comfortable and they provided waters and a/c. We learned a ton about Cozumel and now want to go back for a longer stay and do another tour with…”
