“This was my least favorite tour I booked. The meeting point is confusing because I chose meet at Tulum but then it said the meeting point was at Coco Bongo. We went to Coco Bongo then we were late because they expected us to be at Tulum which was my mistake. However, there was no communication before hand about where we would have met at Tulum either and I had to reach out through Viator to reach someone. With all my other tours someobe reached out via WhatsApp before hand to tell me where we would be meeting to make sure we would know exactly. So even if we had…”

“The experience was extremely distressing, and we are shocked by the way we were treated: We were picked up late and were placed in a small, uncomfortable mini-van instead of the promised coach bus. As the last passengers picked up, we were made to sit in the very back seat, where we were constantly bouncing and hitting our heads on the ceiling.
