Jimmy is the best

I came to Cancun in 2024 for a 25th wedding anniversary and found this tour on viator. I made a group of about 12 people go with me. Afterwards, they could not stop talking about how exciting and fun the tour was. Jimmy was my tour guide. I just so happen to come back this year for my sister's 20th wedding anniversary and told them, WE HAVE to do the jungle speedboat tour! It just so happens, I got Jimmy as a guide again! Jimmy is the BEST. I'm not the best swimmer, but I felt totally safe snorkeling with Jimmy's patience and guidance. I give this tour and Jimmy a 1000/10!

The experience was well worth it. Our tour guide Carlos was very informative and very patient. I don’t snorkel but I had friends that did and really enjoyed it. Would definitely recommend this tour. I would book again

Super fun.

Excellent experience if you come to Cancun. Driving the boat is fun, exciting, and easy. Also, they gave us a message and we did a tequila tasting at the end.
