Speedboat / Snorkeling Excursion was a blast! - We ventured over to Aquaworld, since when we were there a few years ago, seeing people zip around on the 2 seat yellow speedboats looked like a lot of fun. We booked the Speedboat Jungle Tour excursion through the hotel across the street at the Fiesta Americana where we were staying, and walked over for the 9:00 time slot. We checked in, got our wristband, snorkel, and went to get our life vests. We all met in the grouping area, and went out to our boats. We had 3 people in our group, so Aquaworld made special accommodations for a different yellow boat for us that had more room in the back so 3 people could ride out. Luis, our group leader, explained how to work the boats, all the safety precautions, and we took off from the boat launch area. We were the last boat, so there was little pressure on us, but we were slower since we had 3 people in our boat. We followed each other in single file, slowing as we went through the jungle areas, all the way out to the Caribbean Sea, where we tied all the boats together and docked. People went snorkeling, while our group hung out in the boat, with one person going into the crystal clear water. You could see all the fish, and the bottom of the ocean floor. The snorkelers had a great time, and many had their phones in protective cases taking videos. We just wanted to buzz in the speedboats which was a blast. We got back to Aquaworld at about 10:00, so it was about a 2 hours overall excursion - The trip out, snorkeling, and the trip back. Luis did a great job with the group, and had a very good sense of humor. You could tell he was a seasoned employee, as he knew everything, and where we needed to be. One of the coolest things about this trip, was as we left the boat launch area, there was a drone that we spotted obviously taking pictures or videos. When we got back after the excursion, we had the opportunity to purchase the picture and video of us cruising in the boats, which was completely unexpected. The cost was reasonable, and we were able to download the video from a link within 24 hours. We took the picture with us. When we go back to Cancun, we will more than likely do this trip again! Bring a hat, and apply suntan lotion before you get to Aquaworld. It was great affordable entertainment for the morning. 2 Thumbs up!

Great experience - What an amazing experience! One of the highlights was the freedom to drive our speed boats through the scenic jungle waterways. It was exhilarating and added a sense of adventure to the trip. The tour also included plenty of time for snorkeling in beautiful, clear waters. The staff were fantastic and attentive throughout the tour. They ensured everyone felt comfortable and safe while providing interesting insights about the local environment. Overall, I highly recommend.

Snorkel and Speed Boat Tour To Remember 🚤 🐟 - Auquaworld was a great experience. Alberto at the Kimpinski station was beefy friendly, informative and arranged a great excursion. Jossee took us on our jungle excursion and showed us beautiful underwater statues. He made the experience fun and memorable

Fun AquaWorld Jungle Tour - The tour went very well for us, Melquiades guided us and did his best, he knows what he is doing, he is entertaining, pleasant, fun, we had a very good time as a family. We made the reservation via WhatsApp with Andrea Corona and it was also very agile and practical.

Best part of our trip - Amazing! Highly skilled, helpful guide (Luis) who has been doing this for years. This is a small group activity with up to 10. Everything was efficiently orchestrated and the reef is beautiful. I got to see a parrotfish in person up close and tons of marine life along the mangroves. There were shower facilities for afterwards which was nice.

Fun, interesting, and relaxing tour! - This jungle tour was exceptional and I came with my friends and family for the second time this March because once just was not enough. It is so fun and relaxing to just drive the speedboats through the mangroves. The staff explains the driving controls really well and the overall itinerary of the trip before setting out on the water. Our guides Melquiades and Manuel were super enthusiastic and put so much energy into making this tour fun and exciting! Melquiades was cracking jokes and getting us all really excited to get out on the water. Additionally, when we stopped to snorkel, he led the group around to see a bunch of really cool coral reefs, underwater statues, and fish! He stopped a few times to make sure no one got left behind or lost which was really reassuring knowing he was there to make sure we were safe and comfortable. Additionally, he found very interesting things like a baby stingray and a squid in the water and stopped the group to make sure we all had a chance to see something none of us had seen before! Each time I book through AquaWorld the staff is SO helpful and they are really energetic to make us excited to be apart of their tour and I will always use this company for my tours not only because they are fun but also because of their EXCEPTIONAL staff. his was truly such a great experience and even though I have been through twice I would love to go again!

Worth Every Penny - Went with my mom on the speedboat and snorkel excursion. Our guide Merci was informative and kept an eye on all of the boats. One of the boats broke down, and he was able to quickly get to the boat and start it back up. The snorkeling was out in the ocean in a roped off area over a coral reef. It was really cool to see all of the fish chilling in their habitat. Some of the fish even swam right past my face! After the snorkeling, our guide helped us get back onto the boat. I'm a tall and curvy woman and he was able to pull me up easily. We were provided with cold bottled water for the trip back to Aquaworld. If you enjoy snorkeling and activity, I'd recommend this 100%. It is tiring on the body afterwards, but it's a perfect morning excursion where you can just go back to your resort and relax for the rest of the day.

Poorly managed, but great experience - RIP off prices for media - 15 second video is £45!!! Which they never sell, rather than selling for a fair price £10-£20 which many would buy and theyd make more money….do you even know your attachment rate on media sales, should be 40% or more in the leisure business. The experience was also 1.5 hours, not 2 hours so was short changed on the time out on the board. However, it was a really nice experience and only 2 things that are easily fixable that would make this perfect!! I would recommend it, it just isn’t quite what is says on the tin.
