★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 325 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) Our pick

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”
