We get this question a lot - "how
do I know I can trust you?". Another good
one is "why should I choose you?". Always
a hard question to answer - what do you say to that?
Well, on this page, we'd like to let our customers
do the talking!
It takes a little something special
to make people want to take time out of their lives
to drop us a note to thank us for helping them to
have a good time. Here are some of the folks
who have done just that. Thanks for the warm

Customer Reviews and Testimonials
"I recently visited your
establshment with a group of twelve. We all had a
fantastic time and truly enjoyed the hospitality we
received from Julio the bartender, Pamela and Francisco.
I intend on keeping this memory as "happy place" that I
might need to escape too. Thanks again and give your
staff a big pat on the back for doing a wonderful job!"
- Angela from Tampa, Florida
"I recently visited
Cozumel, my daughter gave me tickets to go on the
pirate ship. I was blown
away, from the captain to the pork chops! It was a
great time, lot of laughs. So good to see a female
pirate also. I give you a 10 for being original!
Food was excellent. Thank you for a great time.
I'll be back! PS
- Give the captain a raise, he works up a good sweat!" -
Charlie from Boston Massachusetts
"We took a
snorkeling tour in Cozumel on April the 2nd.
We – two adults and an 8 year old, are good swimmers and
snorkelers and enjoyed our tour very much. The reef was
good, a lot of sea creatures (stars, stingrays, various
fish), colorful corrals, clear water with excellent
visibility. Both places – one shallow, another one deep
offered good snorkeling. The staff was helpful and
attentive. We want to specially thank the photographer
who snorkeled with us and made some wonderful photos of
all of us plus added some other nice underwater
pictures. Overall it was an excellent tour and a nice
stay afterwards at Money Bar with good swimming and
café!" - Victor from Leonia, New Jersey
"We took the
jeep tour on
Saturday and our guide Baco was VERY good and VERY
helpful. He had a good positive attitude, was funny and
took us to some interesting places. I wanted to
compliment him!" - Ron and Diane from Lancaster,
New York
"So glad I
found your website online!!! I not only got a hell of
deal but had a great experience!!
Horseback riding to
El Cedral with Carlos - super great amigo!!! Thank
you!" - Kris from North Oxford, Massachusetts
"I tried to
reserve the excursion through another website but they
were booked so I called Cozumel Tours, and I'm glad I
did. My wife and I went on the
Segway and Snorkel tour in
Cozumel. Boy, what a treat! Our tour guide, Hernando
or "H" for short, was very courteous and friendly. He
gave us a lesson on how to drive a Segway then we
practiced around the parking lot for about 10 minutes.
His assistant (I forgot his name) loaded our bags into
his pickup truck and drove behind us while we were
cruising on the Segways. It was the first time my wife
and I rode Segways and did snorkeling. We had a great
time! I'm glad that I did not book the excursion with
the cruise ship, because we were the only two people who
signed up through Cozumel Tours, and had our own
"private tour!" - Ric & Michele from Orlando, Florida
"Our
family had a lot of fun during the
Jeep tour. Our
older son (9 years old) especially liked the snorkeling
and driving around in the Jeep. It was a blast, and we
hope we can visit Cozumel again soon!" - Pavel from
San Diego, California
"We
enjoyed the [ATV Tour] day
so much thank you! It was fantastic and we totally
enjoyed ourselves. Thank you again and Happy New
Year ! - Siobhan from Naples, Florida
""Just
got back from Cozumel, took the
two reef snorkeling
trip. Our guides were so good. We had exchange students
with us from Germany. The guides made it their personal
mission to make certain our students saw the reefs and
were kept safe. Our guides never made us feel that we
were in a hurry. They answered all of our questions. It
was like they had been waiting to take us out and show
us everything they love themselves. I can recommend this
tour with great enthusiasm!" - Neil from Richmond,
Texas
"We
had a most awesome tour! It was the best
snorkel
ever. Francisco, Sergio and Juan were great.
Thanks again for your attentiveness, we will use you
again on our next trip to Cozumel, your trip was much
better than any of the others we took...we’ll only use
you next time!" - Drew from Madison, MS
"My husband and I had a wonderful time this past
Saturday on the
Catamaran Sail and Snorkel excursion in Cozumel,
Mexico! My husband doesn't snorkel but he had fun
watching me and drinking! This experience was my second
time snorkeling and it was one of my best times ever!!!
Fernando and Rapheal were wonderful!!! The captain of
the catamaran was wonderful too! The rest of my group
had a blast as well and when we come back to Cozumel I
will definitely book another excursion through your
site!!!" - Reggie & Geneca from Lake Charles,
Louisiana
"We
had a WONDERFUL time on our
horseback ride!
Our guide Ernesto was fantastic! Thank you for your
flexibility!" - Amy from Belleair Bluffs, Florida
"We
really enjoyed our
horseback ride today ... and the rain just made it
cooler. Miguel was great and he really accommodated our
needs with varied experience and ages 8 to 80!" -
Buck from San Marcos, Texas
"I
just had to write to tell you that we took your
Discover Scuba
excursion in Cozumel. Our instructor was fabulous and I
have to tell you that I have been on many cruises and
done many tours, thru the ships and through private tour
companies. However, we were so pleased with your
instructor and the service and attention he gave to us
that I had to write you. He was a wonderful man and he
is to be commended. You can be sure we will use your
company whenever we are in the Caribbean. Thanks again
for the wonderful experience. We have used your service
before and have always been pleased, but this man went
over and above to make our day unforgettable. We will
continue to tell all our friends about your tours also.
Thanks again!" -
Virginia from Pembroke Pines, Florida
"We originally
booked 4 tours for our honeymoon vacation. On the day
we left for our honeymoon we had difficulties with the
flights that caused us to not be in Cozumel on time. I
immediately called your customer service reference our
tour the next day. They were very helpful in
rescheduling the tour for later in the vacation. We took
the Chichen Itza tour,
Whale Sharks and ATX rail's. The Whale sharks was an
amazing time. My husband and I both got a little sea
sick, and both the guide, Mike as well as the boat
captain, (can not remember his name) were very friendly
and understanding about it. My husband's experience
with the Whale sharks
was above and beyond what we expected. We were also
able to see some Sea Turtles, Mike was very knowledgable
about them and then they took us snorkeling at the
Reef. We provided a review of the
ATX rail with Wild
Tours on trip advisor also. All 3 tours were very
exciting and fun. We have recommended the Cozumel Tours
website to our travel agent and anyone we know that is
going to Cozumel. We were very pleased with the service
and will definatley use you again!" - April from
Eldon, Missouri
"The mini sub tour
was fabulous. The location was beautiful and the guides
were awesome. We appreciated the fact that it was not
crowded and therefore a much more personalized
experience. I would definitely recommend to anyone
visiting Cozumel!" - Joni from Birmingham, Alabama
"We recently did the
Segway / snorkel tour in
Cozumel, while on a Carnival Cruise. We had a great
time, the tour guide was excellent, the excursion went
very smoothly, we were back in plenty of time for our
ship departure, and had a great time. Our teenage kids
thoroughly enjoyed the Segways. We would highly
recommend the excursion!" -
Cindy
from Thunder Bay, Ontario
"We did the
ATX Rails to Punta
Sur and had a wonderful time. We came from the cruise
ship and this being our first time not doing an excursion
with the cruise ship we were a little nervous about getting
back in time, but Roberto and William did an awesome job
at worrying about us making it back to the ship and letting
us have fun. The buggies were fun and my wife really enjoyed
the mud holes!!! If your cruising and have never thought
of choosing an excursion away from the cruise ships excursion,
then here is your opportunity. Our tour guide made sure
we were where we needed to be and promised us if we felt
uncomfortable about getting back at any time he would have
a taxi standing by. Thanks guys for our best excursion on
our trip better than the others we booked with the cruise
line!" - Wayne from
DeForest, Wisconsin
"Hi! My husband and I just
returned from our Caribbean cruise and wanted to thank you
for making it so fabulous. I wanted to give an extra
special shout out to our friends Brian, Rafa, and... sorry,
I forgot the other gentleman's name. They were all fabulous!!!
We loved the snorkeling,
the music, the homemade guacamole, and I recently discovered
how much I love tequila sunrise! Please pass the word along
and let them know what a fantastic time we had. Can't wait
to return someday and do it again!!!" - Toni from Deshler,
Ohio
"I would like to give the
Jean LaFitte Pirate Boat charter
that we did the highest of compliments. They were
the most wonderful people. They far exceeded not only our
expectations, but also by the amount of friendly and wonderful
people that they had working on the boat that day. I have
to say that not only the experience, but the superb food
that was prepared and the quality of the entertainment was
exceptional. The way that they served the food by
setting up tables and using real plates and silverware was
beyond all expectations. There is plenty of room on the
boat with two fine lavatories, cuartos de banos ) clean
and in good working order was definitely a plus. You
never had to seek out a drink as they were constantly being
served.. And yes he had the special drink requests on board.
They even had a DJ who was mixing music for us. Thanks Again!"
- Dr. Russ from USA
"Tom and I booked a
sea turtle excursion
with you guys for last Monday (November 1st) to Akumal ,
with lunch and drinks included. Just want to give you some
feedback on it---it was OUTSTANDING, mostly because of Jonathan
the guide. A nice guy named Sam met us at the Cozumel ferry,
gave us tickets, walked with us as far as he could, and
said someone would meet us at the other side, in Playa del
Carmen. I am a NERVOUS traveler and I was having anxiety
over being lost in Playa del Carmen---everything was great.
as soon as we got off the ferry, Jonathan was there, and
I felt safe for the whole day. He took us snorkeling
at a lagoon, then we went to snorkel with the sea turtles
and sting rays. The beach resort was absolutely gorgeous,
as was the beach. Putting on my flipper, I could see the
strap was about to break -- Jonathan gave me his flippers
and he wore the bad ones. And boy could he spot the creatures
under the sea!! I don't even know how many turtles and sting
rays we saw--but Jonathan does, because he logged them all
in his book.
He took pictures for us and
of us, and we were in the ocean for a long time. then we
had the MOST delicious lunch at the beach club. I truly
CANNOT tell you how good the authentic Mayan food was at
this resort!! And the workers were so nice! Our glasses
were never empty (nor were our plates!) Jonathan sat with
us at our table and told us all about his life growing up,
and his life now, and why he loves what he does. Honestly,
for me, the BEST part of the trip was just getting to hang
out with a cool guy and learn about the culture there. Well,
and of course the sea turtles!!! So thank you for a great
trip, I felt the expense was agreeable when you factor in
the travelling, the meals and drinks, and the great conversation.
thanks, guys!!!" - Kim from Webster Groves, Missouri
"Our family really enjoyed
the snorkeling in Cozumel
thanks to the crew on the snorkel boat. I cannot
recall the snorkel guide’s name, only that the boat driver
went by Pancho, but I have attached their photos so they
may be recognized. They communicated well with all guests,
operated safely and professionally. The two men provided
their guests a first rate excursion and I will recommend
them to other’s visiting Cozumel!" - Jeffrey from Taylor
Mill, Kentucky
"Thank you for the great
snorkel trip! The reef
snorkel was beautiful. The fish were so colorful and we
even had a barracuda swim under us! I will recommend your
tour to everyone!" - Derek from Navou, Alabama
"My sister, 2 cousins and myself
did the Jeep tour and
this was by far my favorite part of our trip to Cozumel.
The snorkeling was amazing and getting to see the other
side of the island was absolutely breath taking!!
The guides, Paco, and I don’t have the name of the other
guide, they made the tour even more enjoyable with their
outgoing and likeable personalities!!!! Kudos to those
guys, they did their jobs well!!!! Thanks for the memories!"
- Jennifer from Omaha, Nebraska
"Just got back to work....but
wanted to say, we had an awesome time! Victor was
great. We have told many people about you guys and
really, really enjoyed the
ATX rail. It was a
highlight of our vacation. I strongly recommend it to anyone
who wants fun and adventure while traveling to Cozumel.
When we come back to Cozumel, we will call you guys again!
Thank you for a great time!! - Renee from Wylie, Texas
"I want to tell you that the
Jeep tour was excellent!
Great guide, great food and overall good time. Thank
you!" - John from Davie, Florida
"We had a great time at
Mr. Sancho's Monday. The gentleman
that accompanied us on the
horse ride was really
a great guide!! Also, Roma the server was such a nice fellow.
I enjoyed his service very much. Thank you!" - Jon and
Lisa from USA
"Would like to thank you for
everything. The horseback
riding was great! The guys at the ranch were real professionals!"
- Steve from Oceanside, New York
"We were in Cozumel in early
December and took advantage of your
Jeep Tour. Your
tour lived up to and exceeded our expectations. The
tour was well organized and your guides were total professionals.
The greatest compliment I could give you is I recommend
your company to everyone and I keep your email address on
my computer in case we ever get back to Cozumel!" - Don
& Jean from Acton, California
"I just wanted to let
you know that we had a wonderful tour and will highly recommend
your company and Jeep tour
to others. Our guides were excellent
(I’m not good at remembering names but they said to
just call them “hey you” J). The whole family enjoyed
their information and good humor. What could have
been a very scary experience in a foreign country turned
out to be the highlight of our cruise vacation! Our family
truly appreciated your accommodation for us given that our
cruise docked in the afternoon. Wish we were still in warm
and sunny Cozumel! Its snowing here!" - Debbie
from Kingsport, Tennessee
"I just wanted to touch base
and let you know what a wonderful time my boyfriend and
I had on the glass bottom
boat snorkel ride we took in Cozumel this past week.
We ended up being the only people on our boat, which was
captained by a man named Francisco, and our guide (who's
name I can't remember) was amazing! He took
us to all the reefs the other ships were stopping at, but
was so enthusiastic, he would dive down to the bottom and
grab a starfish, or a conch shell, or lure a lobster out
of a cave. It was great, I've never had a better time.
Thank you!" - Teresa from Tewskebury, MA
"We were in Cozumel the first
week of August. You gave our family and friends a guided
tour (Chankanaab). Just wanted to say thank you for
the tour. You did a great job -- very knowledgeable!
The Mexico history was very interesting. We enjoyed
it very much. Thanks again!" - Angie from NC
"We recently were in Cozumel
and purchased the Mr. Sancho's
Cooking Class Excursion through your company.
I just wanted to drop you a note to say that we had such
a wonderful time. The 'Iron Chef' and his team of assistants
were the best. The pricing on this excursions considering
that you get to drink the Margaritas that your learned to
make plus eat the food that we prepared was an incredible
value. I work for Cruise.com, the internet's leading
cruise seller and you can believe that I will be referring
all of my clients to do this course/tour. Thank you all
so much for such a wonderful experience!" - Penny from
Cruise.com
"We made it to our
scuba dive and
had a great time. Thanks again. Juan (dive instructor) was
very patient with us and very accommodating. I'll
be sure to put a good comment for your company on the travel
websites!" - George from Anchorage, Alaska
"My husband and I were on the
3-reef snorkel with
Ricardo on 9/11 and just wanted to tell you that it was
the best snorkeling we have ever had. I have a very small
face and your equipment was the only equipment I have been
able to use that didn't leak or was too big. It was great.
We always snorkel when we come to Cozumel and you are now
our choice from now on. Again, thank you very much!" -
Edee from Rockport, Texas
"I just returned from a cruise
to Cozumel. I cannot express how much the excursion our
group booked on the Manta
Catamaran meant to everyone on board. We booked a private
charter for our group of 24. Our clan consisted of 10 adults
and 14 children. The kids ranged in age from 3 to
16 both boys and girls. The kids are still talking
about everything they saw while snorkeling. My 5 year
old son thought he was swimming in an aquarium! The
crew went out of their way to make our trip memorable.
They were the best! From stopping at shallow reefs for the
children to dropping us off by downtown Cozumel, we could
not have asked for more. As I looked on the web, I
had a hard time finding feedback for this particular excursion.
I was a little concerned that we would not receive what
we were expecting. Boy did I have that completely
wrong! If you are planning a trip to Cozumel, do not
hesitate to book this excursion. It was worth every penny!"
- Ginger from Mobile, Alabama
"I recently returned home from
a cruise to Cozumel on which my family and I chose your
company's Jeep tour
as our shore excursion. The guide truly made the best
of it, as did we. He had a plentiful supply of beer,
water, and soda...all ice cold. His English was great,
and so was his sense of humor. His name was Santiago,
and his service was admirable. I appreciated the relationship
he had with all of the proprietors of the businesses we
stopped at. The guide at the Mayan ruins gave the
most interesting and informative tour. There were
no boring parts, and we actually enjoyed walking around
in the sun on a hot day. He was patient, kind, and
did a wonderful job. Onto the tequila factory...excellent
experience. It was not the huge tequila ("every kind
of tequila") mega-store that I was anticipating...not at
all. The hand-blown glass bottles, the flavors of
tequila that I have never even imagined, and the funny laid-back
tour guide all made the whole experience feel very personal.
On the way back out to the Jeeps, a man threw a lasso and
got it around my waist...it was awesome. I didn't
even think twice about letting him do it. This was
all followed by a breath-taking, high-spirited trip along
the beach to a restaurant that was peaceful and welcoming.
We ate wonderful food and were waited on by our tour guide.
We were sad to go back to the ship. It was a spectacular
experience, and your company deserves a high review.
Your company has very low and reasonable prices, along with
a completely full-service, no-worries experience in Cozumel.
This shore excursion was easily worth double what we paid
for it, so I appreciate you keeping your prices so low while
keeping your customer service standards so high. I
could go on and on...However, I do have to say that on my
next cruise to Cozumel, I will definitely be choosing an
excursion through you. I hope your business continues to
do very well despite the tourist issues in other parts of
Mexico!" - Crystal from Livingston, Texas
"Everyone I was in contact
with at Cozumel Tours was very courteous and helpful when
i booked 3 shore excursions the day I left on my cruise
2/21/09. They Emailed my confirmation and tickets
to me on the ship. this was very helpful. We took
mini subs,
Zip lines, and
horseback riding on
the beach. Everything and everyone we were in contact
with the whole day were very professional and made our trip
incredible. Thank you so much for all of your help. I rate
Cozumel Tours a 10 out of 10 in customer satisfaction, and
would recommend them to anyone traveling to Cozumel.
Their tours will save you bunches of money over the cruise
line prices for shore excursions, and leave you with plenty
of cash for a nice tip. Thank you again and BRAVO
Cozumel Tours!" - Donald from Winter Haven, FL
"I
wanted to contact your company with good news. We
were very, very pleased with the private tour that we arranged
with your company. Given our cruise schedule, our
tour to Tulum/Aktun
Chen had to be timed just right. And it was!
The representative that met us in Playa del Carmen and the
van driver were on time and very helpful to us. The
transportation was clean and air conditioned. I would
definitely recommend your services to friends and family!"
- Stephanie from Plymouth Twp., Michigan
"Our
tour to Chichen-Itza was
great in all respects. William was the guide. we appreciate
his pride in the Mayan history & culture!"
- Thomas from Carlsbad, New Mexico
"We enjoyed
our trip and think that you set us up with a good company
and we can't complain when a company makes a decision for
safety reasons. We were disappointed with not being
able to snorkel but appreciate what both your company put
together for us and will readily recommend using your company
to others!" - Dwayne
and Laura from Charlotte, North Carolina
"I’m hoping you remember
myself and my sister Marylou!! We came on Saturday, Feb.
14th to your Cool!!!
Zip lines…. We wanted to tell you what a GREAT time
we had!!! Alexis and Moses are wonderful and made us feel
very safe and comfortable. Also, great guys, to have fun
and laugh with. We had such a great time, we are planning
another trip!!!! Take care and thanks again! - Julie
from Kansas City, Kansas
"My
family and I want to let you know what a great time we had
snorkeling with Mario last
Tuesday. He explained everything very thoroughly with
us, and made us, and our 3 daughters, feel safe as we explored
the ocean. He continued to be very hospitable after our
tour.. And the rate was far better than what we would have
paid through the cruise line! Thank you for a memorable
experience!" - Mike & Dawn from Ardmore, Texas
"Hello,
everyone at Cozumel Tours: I am shocked!! I
couldn't believe how prompt each of you have been.
I thought I would be calling you about my refund AFTER the
whole cruise and flight home. When I emailed questions
about your tours they were answered quickly. Even
the suggestion of only taking the
Tulum Express and not
combine with Aktun Chen was greatly appreciated. Reserving
only the one tour gives us a few moments to see a little
of Cozumel. Can't wait to meet your guide and take
off on a wonderful adventure. Thanks again for all
you help and consideration. PS - Our son and his family,
plus a group of others will be taking the same cruise -
visiting the same ports - in June, 2009. I've already told
him about your tours and how pleased we are so far!" -
Barbara from Stewartstown, Pennsylvania
"Thank you for
such a great website. Very informative and we will
definitely look for your tours when we arrive at Mayan Rivera.
The ferry will be great. Thanks a bunch from Canada!"
- Tracy from Edmonton, Alberta
"Our excursion
was the Pirates Dinner
Cruise. We were met at the designated time and
place and treated wonderfully from that moment on.
The dinner was almost canceled due to weather, but at the
last minute it was decided to proceed. The crew was
very entertaining and totally in character. The captain
a showman. The drinks refreshing and the service was
wonderful. The food was some of the best we had on
the island and made this a memorable experience for us both.
We had a wonderful trip thanks to your company and just
wanted to acknowledge it!" - Kelly from Sacramento, California

Yes, I did, and they were wonderful! I bumped

It was amazing. The boats are really little but the reefs

haven't booked Cozumel through Johann & Sandra, but I did
book through them for Mazatlan last year, and it was a good
experience" - RoofingPrincess

"As for the cozumel
excursion...we did cozumel-tours.com (don't forget the hyphen)
and got a catamaran and 3 stop snorkeling tour for 40 bucks.
AND, it just so happened, the 4 of us were the ONLY ones
on this huge catamaran! It was incredible. The booking of
the excursion was easy and they are very helpful and respond
quickly to email and phone calls (and they speak english).
Highly recommend this. It was a 3.5 hour excursion, so we
had plenty of time to eat, shop, and visit Carlos and Charlies."
