GStonelake Posted April 10, 2017 #1 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Know there is a Costa Maya board, but wanted opinions from Celebrity board. On the fence ... Celebrity ship excursion to Chacchoben and Uvero Beach or Native Choice Chacchoben and Lago Bacalar? Ship arrives at 7am leaves at 5pm. Both Excursions are about 5.5 hours. Always nervous about using a new (to me) local company. Any feedback appreciated. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pieter&sharon Posted April 10, 2017 #2 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Native Choice Chacchoben Used Native Choice in January. Well run and our guide was very knowledgeable. We had our 7 year old granddaughter with us and he included her in and kept her interested. Got back to the port with enough time for some shopping.

MAPCruises Posted April 11, 2017 #3 Share Posted April 11, 2017 We used Native Choice in Costa Maya and were super happy with our tour. We went to Disbanche (?). Guide was super knowledgeable and we learned a lot about the Mexican interior as we traveled along. We got back to ship with plenty of time to spare. I would highly recommend them.

disgirl Posted April 11, 2017 #4 Share Posted April 11, 2017 We are using Native Choice for our excursion in a couple of weeks. They have been very easy to deal with - answered my questions right away via email. Not sure when you are travelling but I can update after we return (05MAY) We are looking forward to the smaller group and seeing the ruins we wanted to see not the others.

sanger727 Posted April 11, 2017 #5 Share Posted April 11, 2017 We had a good experience using native choice in a different port. In my experience local providers do better tours for lower prices than the cruise line. You should have plenty of buffer time, I would do the native choice tour.

bigbillfromchicago Posted April 11, 2017 #7 Share Posted April 11, 2017 We have taken several of the Native Choice tours out of Costa Maya and they are right at the top of all the tours we've taken in 38 cruises. David and Ivan grew up on one of the sights and they are passionate about the Mayan culture. Don't miss this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ricka47 Posted April 11, 2017 #9 Share Posted April 11, 2017 We're heading to Maya Chan on our next stop in Costa Maya in July. It has many good reviews and we're looking forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
