Moreover, they cancel our first reservation with out any notification while we sat in the hotel lobby for over 30 minutes. We were rebooked and never received a call on my cell phone or text with a time other than 0900 departure. We were in the hotel lobby at 0900 & the transport driver already left . When we made multiple attempts to contact them no one answered the phone & had been on the phone with Viator for 45 minutes trying to contact the company.”

The day was better suited to diving that a snorkel. I asked about the conditions when we arrived and mentioned that we got a jet ale package combo. No problem no problem. Until we return from the snorkeling all jacked up about half of the boat ended up throwing up over the side because of the conditions. Retuning back to the dock green under the gills I explained that my wife and both had no interest in spending an hour on jet…”

The staff was great to make us feel safe even we were snorkeling at the open water that we were guided where to go. The jet ski part was great too.

“Disclaimer: We weren't able to go on the Sky Rider due to weather conditions and had to cancel, so my review is based on the experience for how that was handled by the company, not the ride itself. We were able to get a full refund without much fuss. My primary complaint was that the company did not reach out to us ahead of the scheduled appointment to inform us that they were not doing Sky Rider tours due to the weather. We were staying at a different resort and had to travel to the meetup point on the beach, so we had no idea beforehand. We ended up wasting…”

“Worth the money! People we’re awesome and friendly. We started off with snorkeling that took approximately 1+hrs and visited 4 snorkeling locations, afterwards parasailing took about 15-20 mins with a magnificent view of cancun, and finally we jet skied for 30 mins! Jet sky is pretty challenging because you need to have balance otherwise you fall but your guide is there to help and is fun! Pics and vids are not included but for snorkeling and parasailing i think its worth the money $100 usd. Your allowed to bring your own camera gear under your own responsibility. In conclusion, 3 hour adventure and highly would recommend it.”

We rang them and told them this only to be told phone was not there. We tracked the phone 4 times moving out to sea and back and each time was told it was not on boat.
