bjandkm Posted January 25, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Looking to book an excursion in Cozumel and wondering if the 6 hour excursion is worth it? We are only at the port for 9hrs so the 6 hour excursion won't allow much time for anything else such as shopping, etc. while there. Any suggestions?

JohninDC Posted January 25, 2018 #2 Share Posted January 25, 2018 To the ruins on the mainland? :confused: The Tulum tour is good and usually includes a short stop at a nearby beach, but you'll spend as much time (or more) getting there and getting back as you will seeing the ruins and on the beach - 45 minute ferry to the mainland, bus to the ruins/beach and reverse to get back. If you want to see the Mayan ruins and will not be back in Mexico or other nearby ports then go for it; you will have time to shop on the pier before/after.

CarolinaGirl2010 Posted January 30, 2018 #3 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Which ruins? The ones in Cozumel are small, but we enjoyed them. Not as grand as on the mainland though. The ones on the mainland, Tulum or Chichen Itza take a long time, and it would probably be at least 8 hours. I was going to book one that said 6 hours, but when I looked at the travel time it was 6 hours in just travel time, so no way you'd be back to the ship in 6 hours.

Rare jcathers1 Posted January 31, 2018 #4 Share Posted January 31, 2018 The Mayan ruins on Cozumel are very small (and not exactly what we were expecting). They were nice, but if you are considering this, you should check out videos/pictures to ensure you know what you are getting for your money.

Gate54 Posted January 31, 2018 #5 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Went to Chechin Itza on our cruise and although it was a long day it was well worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman-007 Posted January 31, 2018 #6 Share Posted January 31, 2018 The Mayan Ruins on Cozumel island are not very good, most of the building are just rubble on the ground. I did Not enjoy it. The two Mayan Ruins are much better on the mainland however they are a lot further away. Tulum is on the Ocean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
