Amazing service! We did the 7 hour tour and it FLEW by so I recommend definitely doing the 7 hour. Looking back, I wish we would have spent more time on the north beach and less time snorkeling, but all around amazing experience and the service was outstanding!!

Mario and team were awesome. It was a great day and we had sooo much fun. We loved the snorkeling and the crew was amazing. Lunch was also excellent !!!!

Perfect for Our Birthday Vacation

Alexander_S, Jan 2024

This was an excellent addition to our birthday vacation with 10 of our close friends. Pedro and his crew were friendly, professional, and helpful every step of the way. All of our friends said that this was the peak of their vacation and they "had never done anything like it before". Some other private boat tours are only 3-5 hours and after experiencing this, I will never book anything shorter than 7 hours. What went well: The route from northern Cancún to Isla Mujeres is perfect for catching sun, enjoying the waters, and soaking in the beauty of the area by boat. We stopped once for about 15 minutes to snorkel, then again for about 45 minutes near the shore of Isla Mujeres for some swimming before docking on the island. Bar service was excellent all the way through, and our bartender was even kind enough to swim drinks out to us while we were enjoying the shallow waters by the shore. The trip back was equally beautiful and relaxing with virtually no boat traffic. We originally had planned the experience for 16 people, but ended up with 10 total - we had plenty of space and could have easily fit the other 6 people. Pedro even took some group photos for us that we will definitely remember for a lifetime! We also booked our shuttle directly through our tour operator and it was seamless from start to finish - we even booked a larger shuttle initially and had to change it to something smaller two days prior with no issues. What could be better: The big catch with boat tours to Isla Mujeres is the island itself. If you want to access the island, then you need to either be dropped off at a public dock for free and be harassed by scores of merchants (restaurants, tequila and jewelry salespeople, spa services, performers) until your scheduled pickup time, or dropped off on a private restaurant dock where you'll be required to eat. Having had a frustrating experience being dropped off a public dock two years prior, we opted for a private dock this time (we're on a very expensive, private cruise with our friends and we want to make the most of it!). Unfortunately, we had similar problems while at the restaurant - mostly because of merchants constantly coming up to our table, one of which tricked us out of money and then disappeared. Ultimately we burned through well over two hours sitting at the restaurant, paid relatively high prices ($450 USD for 9 people), and were strong-armed into tipping 20% because of a group fee that we didn't know about and wasn't mentioned on the receipt. I believe in tipping, but we had already tipped $50 USD and it was an uncomfortable experience dealing with the whole situation. The food was delicious and I ultimately appreciated the recommendation from our tour guide, I just wish we could have avoided the unexpected loss of time and money related to this part of the trip. Recommendations: Keep in mind that the price of the boat is for just that and nothing else. Each person in your group will need to pay $15 USD in dock fees, any food on the boat will cost $100-$300 USD for the group, and transportation for your group will probably run $150-$200 USD. Also keep in mind that although Cancún Sailing is probably a multi-million dollar company, they are paying their employees, including your crew, $15 USD per day - TIP THEM WELL! When all was said and done our experience cost approximately $2650 USD (Boat = $1550, Dock Fees = $140, Shuttle + Tip = $150, Chips and Guac on Board = $105, Crew Tip = $200, Restaurant Lunch + Tip = $500), which broke down to about $265 USD per person.

Day on Catamaran

Amy_B, Jan 2024

We had a great time on the boat for the day. We did purchase the extra buffet on Isla Mujeres and unfortunately that food was terrible but the boat experience was great.

What a great time!

Ananya_R, Mar 2023

This experience was so worth it! We did the 4 hr option. We’re a group of 17 college kids and had a great time. The staff was so kind, the boat was great and we enjoyed the snorkeling stops as well as isla mujeres. 10/10 time!

A perfect day sailing

Diana_P, Feb 2023

We had an amazing day with Tulia and her crew! The entire team was very attentive, even swimming out with beer refills when we were swimming at North Beach of Isla Mujeres. The entire experience was perfect for our group of 10 (5 couples). High marks also for transportation to and from our resort. Driver was prompt. Tulia met us at the vehicle and escorted us quickly through check in. We had a 9AM sail time and beat all the crowds as we left from dock around 830AM. We returned to dock right at 1PM and vehicle was ready to take us back to resort. High marks for creating a VIP experience! If you have a group this is a perfect excursion!

Great time! We had...

Laura_B, Dec 2022

Great time! We had transfers issues and they waited on us to arrive and extended our time to cover for the late arrival.

Good

Stanley_N, Jul 2022

We really had fun, the crew members are very good and friendly but the food we paid for doesn’t what it. Nice experience will come back again.

The sail you never know you needed 😁

Mateika_M, May 2022

The service and the crew were fantastic! The sail and amenities was 🤌🏾. Thank you all for making my trip so memorable 💕

Great experience

William_K, Apr 2022

Wonderful crew! Enjoyed every minute. We were sold 4 to 7 hours, but we’re held to only 4. Maybe would have explored the island and done some snorkeling.

Amazing boat ride for my birthday/girls trip 🥳

Natalia_B, Sep 2021

We had a great time on our tour. Cesar and the crew ensured that we were all good and kept the drinks coming. ☺️

Worth it!

Mother/ Daughter Trip

Jennifer_G, Jun 2019

Had a wonderful day with a mother and daughter trip. Wanted to show our daughters a wonderful time before they went off to college in the fall. Wonderful day with good food & plenty of drinks flowing. The water was just beautiful water! We did our own itinerary & wouldn’t change a thing!

Adventure with sun and amazing blue seas.

Shari_D, Jun 2019

A wonderful day with family & friends. The crew was very professional, respectful and friendly. They gave us a special day to cherish and enjoy. Can’t wait to go again.
