Custom Private Guided Cozumel Island Tour

We had a great day exploring the east side of the island. Fernando was such a nice and knowledgeable guide. His love for Cozumel comes through in all his informative conversations. He let us determine how we wanted to spend our time. We saw beautiful natural beaches, had authentic Mexican food and spent some time snorkeling at chankanaab. It was a great day. We will definitely do this again and see some different sights.

Amazing experience with Sergio! He tailored the tour perfectly to what we wanted to see and shared great recommendations for local spots. Super friendly and welcoming guide — 100% recommended!

I will start with the good: Fernando was an amazing guide. He is a fourth generation local that really knows the island. He was very engaging and really desired to get to know us and our extended family. He was very knowledgeable about the caves and the Myan history and also took us to a nice beach, Tequilla tour, and back for a nice lunch along the ocean. I was looking for a pair of boots and stopped at several locations and even offered to negotiate on my behalf had we found the pair I was seeking. Now for the bad, this tour company rents the Jeeps that they use for the tour and the one they rented was in very bad condition with all the dash lights on, rubbing on turns, cracked and worn-out seats, with a 8x10 rental license taped to the front windshield right where the passenger was to look out. I had to spend the entire time leaning over to the center to see anything. BUT THAT WAS NOT THE WORST...the entire inside of the jeep was covered with mold (the fuzzy type). Serious concern for our health. Fernando tried to get it changes out while we were on the Tequilla tour but was told by the owner there wasn't enough time to make that happen. I did let the owner know how disappointed we were and did not receive a response. I purposely waited until we returned to write this review hoping that he would contact us. This is total unacceptable.

Fernando was the perfect guide for my fiancée and I on our private jeep tour in Cozumel! He took us to a tequila distillery, several beautiful beaches on the east side, and a beach club where lunch and fajitas were included. He was professional and safe, but also knew how to have a fun time! He made the entire day fun and effortless. His local knowledge and love for Cozumel’s culture really shined through — we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Despite being to the island multiple times, he taught us numerous things! Can’t wait to come back and visit our new friend, Fernando! 🌊☀️🏝️

Tanya was an excellent hostess and driver. Made us feel special. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to the other side of the island.

We had the BEST day with Sergio from Jeepriders Cozumel! He met us right at the cruise port and knew the plans we had included with our reservation (visit Mayan Ruins plus Mayan Cocoa) and said we’d have time for that and more! Sergio listened to us and made suggestions based off that. What a great day! A little tequila tasting to start (NO high pressure sales), visiting your the ruins, beautiful drive around the island, swimming at a locals beach (we all thought this simple beach was breathtaking), fresh coconut to snack on, surprise visit to a secret “blowhole” (so cool!!!) and finished up at our pre-booked chocolate experience. We were back to the ship in plenty of time and are already talking about next time we are in Cozumel where Sergio can take us! If you are reading reviews wondering if this is right for your family…book it. We did the SAME two sites a few years ago through the cruise ship. It was crowded and slow. 30 minute bathroom breaks, waiting for people to shop etc. Not enough time actually experiencing the beautiful island. That’s why we wanted a redo to get it right and enjoy the day. Jeepriders Cozumel will take care of you! It might be a little more than the excursions through your ship, I assure you it’s worth it! Your family will be safe, taken care of and have a customized Cozumel day!

This is the second time I’ve used this company. They have provided great service and the guides are quite knowledgeable about the island. For the price you can’t beat the company. We had Labdy this time and Fernando in December. Lunch and beverages were provided in the price. Kevin, the head guy, customized our experience for what we wanted

I have traveled to Cozumel dozens of times, however, this was my first experience with Jeep Riders of Cozumel. Our private guide, Maria definitely impressed us with her fun personality and knowledge of the island. Maria took us to parts of Cozumel that I’ve never seen. The cenotes, tequila tasting, scenic sandy beaches, lunch at an oceanfront table and so much more! The complete process from making the reservation to promptly picking us up to returning us to our drop off spot was handled professionally! We highly recommend reserving a Jeep Riders adventure!

John made my husband’s and my trip to Cozumel better than we could’ve ever expected! Best bang for our buck. He gave us all the knowledge, took us to the hidden gems locals know about, drove past the crowded beaches and stopped at the secluded one so we could have our own private snorkel experience, took us to a great lunch spot, and made sure we were back to the ship on time!! He was such a down to earth human. We really felt special on a private tour vs the over crowded bus tours. Best way and only way we will explore in the future!

Tania took us around and we all wanted to do different things! She was very accommodating and the free drinks after a hot walk were great! Thanks for taking us around wherever we wanted 😊

John was great in listening to what we were interested in and accommodating us. He took us to an off the beaten path taco place, a tequila tasting, and around the back of the island. It was a nice day and a fun way to experience Cozumel.

Brilliant trip with Adrian who picked us up at the commercial units outside the cruise port terminal - just a few minutes walk. Upon meeting Adrian, he took us to the jeep and started the trip, first stop, the Tequila Ranch. To be honest, Tequila isn't really our thing but we was interested in seeing how Tequila was made and it was pretty interesting however, we didn't purchase any Tequila as we thought it was quite expensive so we headed to the next stop which was Punta Sur Eco Beach. This was amazing - absolutely stunning unspoilt natural beaches with crocodiles and iguanas roaming around freely. It was truly stunning. The roads throughout Punta Sur had so many pot holes and was a real bone shaker so be prepared to be shaken about a bit but it was no issue - it was all part of the fun! We made a stop at a beach that had sun-loungers and a restaurant. It was unspoilt and beautiful with few people. I would say this trip was one of our highlights. Stunning, stunning, stunning! Adrian was keen to show us the cenotes (large sink hold) on the return to our ship but whilst we would have loved to have seen this, we was conscious of time and asked to be taken back to our ship given traffic building up - this was such a shame but really the stunning natural surroundings of Punta Sur more than made up for this - it was never part of the itinerary in any case - just a little extra if we had time. Thanks for a truly stunning trip Jeep Riders Cozumel!

Starting with our communication with the owner, Kevin- he was so accommodating on our preferred pick up time and plan to meet with friends at the end. Then, we had the best day with Fernando. He was so kind, helpful and knew so much about the area. It was fun but also relaxing. The sights were beautiful. The tequila tour was fun and we did not feel pressured to buy anything at any point of the trip. We ended at Sanchos and the lunch was great, the kids had a great time also. Highly recommend taking this tour. Worth every penny.

We did the private tour since we are traveling with my elderly parents and wanted maximum flexibility. The guide was Tomas and he did an excellent job accommodating our needs. We started with a tequila tasting which was informative, fun and delicious. Next we went to a restaurant that I had predetermined. After that we cruised the east side of the island making a few stops to see the sights. After I had a couple of margaritas, Tomas took over as driver. We arrived back at the ship right at the designated time. The tour comes with three hours, which would have been tight, but luckily we had reserved an extra hour which was perfect.

Our Guide Sergio was absolutely fantastic. We felt like family the whole day. Although some of our plans for the day fell through due to weather our guide didn’t disappoint. He met us at exactly where he was supposed to be, the jeep was great and everything was exactly as described. Our guide did not push us at all to do anything we didn’t want to do. We felt so comfortable with our guide Sergio and he was so knowledgeable about the island and its history. I would highly recommend this company as well as our guide Sergio. It was one of the best days ever.

Excellent excursion! John is a very friendly guide, with little care and who knows the island as his pocket. We highly recommend.
