Cabo’s clear boat tour brings you to El Arco, Pelican Rock, sea lions, and tropical fish for about $15.53, with optional hotel pickup.
“This activity was fine. A couple cool things. But about 1/3 of the time was spent taking pictures of everyone so they can sell a package for over $100 at the end. Also, we were with Spanish speaking people as well, so the operator had to switch back and forth. It would be nice if you could reserve a tour in either English or Spanish so we could hear a more full narration. Impressed by his command of both languages, of course. Just didn’t quite live up the hype. The captain did a great job controlling the boat. Learned a few cool things. Affordable relative to other excursions. Seeing fish…”
Review of Cozumel’s private five-hour island tour, with chocolate, tequila, San Gervasio, east coast views, beach time, and practical tips.
“My wife and I took my 86 year old mother with limited mobility on a tour with Gerry. She had never been to Cozumel and just wanted to see the island without much walking. Gerry was fantastic. He listened to our needs and arranged a drive that was perfect for her. We circumnavigated the island making a few stops n visited a Mayan village and saw a performance and learned about their culture and tasted chocolate and honey. Very happy”
