Riding a camel through sandy trails in Cancun might not be what first comes to mind when you're on holiday here, but this family-friendly trip promises to be a hit with the kids. You'll have a quick safety briefing before climbing on for a 45-minute ride. Rounding off the tour is time at Maroma Beach Club to grab a snack and chill on the beach.

The staff were very helpful and very friendly. They did an excellent job and asking all questions and explaining everything exceptionally well and quite knowledgeable.

Fantastic !

Camel ride was much shorter than advertised Main purpose was to take you to a 'photo-shoot' which was longer than the camel ride. Cost of the photo package was extortionate at $220 or $50 for individual photos. We said no and then when we were leaving they dropped the price to $100 which was still way too much. Had they been reasonably priced we would have purchased but felt like visitors were simply treated as cash cows. Incidentally, dolphin photo package at same venue was only €70.

I want to start off by saying Joseph the tour guide was brilliant, was just me and my partner on the camel ride and he made it so much fun. So would recommend that! The only problem we had was we was told the transfer wasn’t getting us till 5:30pm to take us back to the hotel we was done at 1:30pm. We was told we could arrange earlier pick up and when we asked we was told no. So we sat and waited till 5:30pm till the taxi come but even that was late. Just a heads up it’s an all day thing.

We ride the camels every year for over 5years The camels are great and so are all the staff

We have been coming and riding the camels for many many years We enjoyed everything and there is nothing we didn’t like
