Immerse yourself into the world of Maya culture with this Yucatan jungle tour. You'll witness a traditional Maya ritual ceremony, head deep into the jungle via the Maya Path, and whizz through the Nichupté Lagoon as you drive your own speedboat. Tuck into some local snacks, before rounding off with snorkelling in Nizuc Reef. And, if you're craving an extra shot of adrenaline, you can choose the option with a 30-minute WaveRunner ride. You'll zip across the lagoon and enjoy the freedom of getting close to the mangroves on this manoeuvrable little watercraft.

We had Romel as our guide, he was fantastic, best £118 I've ever spent. We could have snorkelled forever! Speedboat was amazing!

Outstanding activity with really good friendly staff. Big shout out to Flash, our guide/Captain. Traditional ceremony dancers were fantastic, set the sense before going out on the water. Boats were fast and exhilarating through the mangoes with a 25 minutes ride before stopping in the ocean for a 25 minute snorkel. The road back enabled us to swap drivers which was a plus for us as we both wanted to drive the speed boat. ???

My partner and I enjoyed every minute of trip. I would definitely recommend this activity.

We booked for a family of four but were told they did not have enough four person boats. My wife had to sit out and was in tears the whole time without any alternative being arranged. Lots of people there that could have driven her but she was left all alone crying for an hour. This was the only alternative to avoid disappointing our children and wasting the trip as it was clear there would be no refund.

Christian the guide was fantastic really felt safe. The speed boats were amazing and had loads of fun driving them too and from the snorkelling spot. The little ceremony at the beginning was also very good and the pictures and video of the trip was brilliant. I didn’t even notice the drone filming us. Nice short tour and I’d say it’s one I’d definitely do again.

Excellent trip and best snorkelling
