    Not as great as it was made out to be. This was not a bust but definitely disappointed. Beach club kept wanting us to buy the all inclusive for every guest even after we said we were not eating and would pay as we go. Charged $28 for three cokes and two chips with salsa.

  • A great adventure!

    Excellent tour! If you like adventure and fill up with mud passing through the pools very wild, then m to the open cenote, there is sighting of flora and fauna that explain you in the tour and urban legends. Thank you for your excellent Cristobal Service! We hope to be back soon.

    We have been left with the most pleasant memory of our trip. A whole experience full of energy! The guide knows very well the history of the area but also shares some incredible legends. We are certainly counting down the days to return. This has been the most pleasant memory of our trip. It's an experience full of energy!

    This was hands down the best excursion to get out of you confort zone! They gather you up by the ship and then you head down to town get introduced to the local guide and then it's about a 20 minute ride when you reach this rustic very realistic barn where there's some animals around and the atvs the place looks a bit run down from the years but it definitely has its appeal, there they give us gear and instructions on how to use the atvs, so we were fortunate to go on rainy days and got plenty muddy haha loved it!! Then we arrived to an abandoned church and other complex of building and were told the story of this hidden little town. What I personally liked as the fact that this place wasn't structured fancy for those who want paved roads and pure cleanliness y was down and dirty and you got to enjoy and see what people down there really live by day by day. After wards we head to the beach club. Guys some advice take a change of clothes with you please you will need it! After a little while at the beach relaxing then we head back to the boat with the rest of the groups so all in all it was unexpected but we'll worth it. 5 out 5

  • DO NOT do this!

    If I could rate this zero, I would. Slicer Beach Club is super small & kinda skanky. Pool is literally the size of a hot tub & nasty. However, Slicer is the highpoint of this tour. Female "guide" in van went on & on & on about how all Americans are rich but her ppl are destitute. (So do you hate us or do you just want some our $?) Looong drive to the middle of nowhere "farm" where we were handed off to another "guide" for the ATV ride. Female guide departs to host another tour. What? Now it is me (single, older female), my barely teenage grandson and some random dude in the sticks of the Yucatan - no other shipmates on excursion. But wait...once upon the ATVs, we proceed even further into the sticks. Flashbacks of 20/20 Mexico kidnapping stories are overtaking my brain....Dust, gravel, iguanas, scrub brush, heat, so much heat, so much dust, so desolate, so far from the ship...we finally arrive at the "ghost town" where random dude guide actually pushes over some rocks so we can scale a wall. (I'm an old lady!) He remains outside the walls, hmmmm. Graffiti, broken down bldgs, tall grass & overgrown trees...As we explore, we suddenly come upon armed random dude #2 perched in a sorta treehouse/lookout above the property. I am scared to death but smile & speak to the guy only to be met with a harsh, silent glare. We quickly re-scale the wall & return to the ATVs as our guide & the armed man exchange heated words I cannot understand. Money exchanges hands & we are abruptly escorted away from the property. Drive back took us by an awful smelling sewage plant (no lie) & a nearby lagoon where we could swim. Umm, no thank you. Can we just go back to the ship? This is way too much Mexico for us. Back to the farm that was so bad even the animals looked miserable..underweight horses, a messed up bird...seriously, it was like the Island of Misfit Toys - so, so sad. A 45-60 minute wait later the female guide finally comes back with her other "tour" who all looked as miseable as us. No water. No bathrooms. No end to this nightmare that I funded. Even my ATV loving grandson hated this excursion. We made it out alive & back to the ship on time... those are the only positives I can offer. For the love of all that is good & holy, STEER CLEAR! (Date of our tour was 5/2019)

  • ABSOLUTELY HORRIFYING!!!!

    From the dirty, gross van, to the "tour guide" who didn't explain much, we were very upset to have spent so much money on this excursion. Once we found where we needed to be, we were taken to what was presumed to be a parking lot filled with other dirty vans and buses. We got in the nastiness and were horrified on what was to happen next based on our surroundings. We were relieved to have 3 more couples join us on this experience. We were taken through what I can only assume was their town. A town of filth, boarded up concrete buildings with graffiti, and poverty that was very clear. There were not many vehicles or people around which added to our anxiety of where we were being taken. We saw men driving trucks with rifles in clear sight. We arrive at the "home" of one of the tour guides, inside a locked fence. At least we saw the ATV's because if not, we would have not gone inside. One step inside the gated complex I look to my right to see the carkus of some animal's head laying on the ground. I alerted my Husband while trying to shield my children. There were many animals in this "complex." Horses, malnutrished dogs, puppies, pigs, peasants, and goats. We take this ATV excursion through nothing but dirt roads and brush. Nothing to see for 40 of the approximately 45 minute ride to the "Ghost Town." We arrive to the "Ghost Town" to see 3 buildings. We were told the "keeper" was not working that day, so all we saw were the outside of these buidling full of grafitti. Clearly run down. Was it a true ghost town? Doubtful. Fast forward to the beach club. Wow. We think someone took whatever money they had and claimed a part of the beach. The tour guide had previously mentioned, several times, that we had not purchased the $25 all you can eat and drink package, but we certainly could buy one if we wanted to. We were so filled with dust and dirt from the ATV's all we wanted to do was get back to the ship and shower! The "tour guide" took us back to the ship, but not without drilling into us that it'd be $10 per person for the ride back. Once at the ship, we get out, and again he stated we would like $10 per person, but I will leave that up to you. I have him $28. Odd amount, but I had only 8 singles and had planned on that as a tip at first. This excursion cost is $468 and we were very, very mislead and disatisfied. Progreso is dirty, run down, and not at all what pictures show it to be. PLease consider yourselves warned.
