Picked up at port very promptly and greeted by driver holding sign with our name on it. Mix up about whether I had paid for one buggy or two was solved by them just taking my word that I had booked two. Buggies could have used a good cleaning. Tour guide was wonderful. The stops we made were wonderful: giving children cookies, touring a cave and the beach. While it didn’t last 4 hours, more like 2.5, it was still a great tour.

Took the tour with my wife and we both wanted to drive so we opted for the ATV vs. Buggy. Took us to a plantation with a little gig about the Cocoa (chocolate), Arabica coffee, tobacco and Macajuanna. They give you some samples and try and sell you some. I bought some cigars and they were great! Next we went to Macao beach which I also reviewed but in short it's cool. Lastly we went to a Cenote "Water cave" were you could swim in a very small beautiful cave with baby blue waters. It was quite packed though and way too many people at once in a small area in my opinion, with this happening during Covid restrictions. All in all a good time and I would recommend.
