Xenotes Tour was so much fun. It's different that the other two (Xcaret and Xplor) and I highly…read morerecommend this one! At the Xenotes Tour, you get to enjoy four cenotes plus different activites at each: Ziplining, Snorkeling, Rappeling, Kayaking, Inner Tubes, and Cliff Jumping. There's also a photographer that is with us throughout the whole time capturing pictures of everyone in our group. They also provided two meals, the first one was pastries and beverages (water, soda, hot chocolate, and coffee) and the last one was a full on buffet spread (salad, cheese, meats, bread, water, soda and beer). Our tour guide, Manny was amazing and he made the trip very memorable. He was very helpful with my mother in law and my little son. He guided the group from beginning to end and made the trip to all four cenotes a breeze. We all had a fantastic time and we even purchased the pictures at the end. Aside from the photographer, I recommend bringing a water case for your phone and a GoPro! We got so many amazing videos with my husband's GoPro. I cannot express how fun this excursion was and would definately do it again. Tips: Wear a swimsuit, water shoes and comfortable clothing on the bus and for after. Towels are provided. Bring cash to tip your tour guide for an amazing time. The cenotes are located in the middle of the jungle so cell phone service is not available.

This place was just meh. The tour itself was really fun with swimming, jumping, ziplining, and…read moretequila lessons. But... the ride to each xenote was very bumpy and uncomfortable. We also got scammed. DO NOT BUY THE ALL-INCLUSIVE FOOD PACKAGE!!!!!!!!!! The food you get at the Xenotes is soggy nuggets, soggy fries, simple pastries, and you only have 5 mins to eat before you have to move on. At lunchtime, on the taco menu with the package, you only got 4 out of the 8 tacos, and the tacos were horrible. They were dry and had almost nothing, and almost no flavor. And the salesperson was really pushy about everything. The photos were super expensive too. Over all fun experience but horrible food.

Don't get me wrong, I love learning some history and culture but it was a small van and sometimes I just wanted to look out the window without feeling the pressure to pay attention the whole time. It also got really political at some point and I felt a little awkward because I didn't know the other people on the tour and didn't know how to react, The guide also made some claims that I am not sure are rooted in any sort of facts, like that the cure for cancer is in Mexico...which, maybe I am ignorant but I had never heard that before. Loved the Don Tomas vineyard. It was beautiful and we enjoyed the wine! I wish it was longer, maybe if they included lunch at the restaurant or something that would have been nice. Could have spent the whole day there! Afterwards we went for a tequila tasting which I wasn't aware was a part of the tour. I think we got hustled a little to buy the bottles. We looked them up after we got back home and saw that some of these tour companies take you to these tastings and the tequila isn't legit. It tasted good but boy was it pricey. After that we had some time to walk around the town and shop. Our guide recommended a restaurant to eat at which was delicious, but didn't have a single fish item on the menu. He was talking up fish tacos so much and Ensenada being the home of the fish taco that we were excited to eat fish tacos!!! Why did he send us to a restaurant with no fish tacos? I was so confused. I jokingly confronted him about it and he kind of laughed it off. The shopping area was super touristy, nothing super exciting. A lot of the shops have the same thing. Overall, I'm glad we did the tour because it was a nice way to get out of the main tourisity part of Ensenada for a bit and see more.

Booked via Royal Caribbean, Food and Tequila Walking Tour of Ensenada, duration advertised 2 1/2…read morehours, but we ran over 3 hours, and had a delayed one hour start pushing our return close to gangway up time. I was resting shortly after getting back on ship in my cabin, and felt the ship move so pay attention to the time. Price was only around $50 as the excursion was discounted via the cruise line. As for the tour it was great, and you will get in some steps. Guide Angel, my group 15 persons which was ideal to interact with each other, and to fit in the vendors comfortably. Group meet at a vendor booth setup opposite the $RCL ship, and walked as a group into town. First Stop, the Fish Market to learn about the freshly caught fish, then a stop where we sat down and were served bottles of beverages, plus had a yummy Shrimp Taco, and explored a wide range of Salsas with in house made chips. Second Stop, a Confection shop with an indulgent number of sample sweets to be tasted and if wanted purchased. Huge platters of Fruit / Nut hand rolled sweets were tasted. Third Stop, Tequila tasting, more than a dozen sips were had across a wide range of tequilas. Tequilas tasted were across a wide range of price points and including flavored variations. Was a fun experience, liquor pours were sips so as to not intoxicate the group. Numerous bottles were purchased by the group. My favorite was the flavored Quita Penas. Fourth Stop, La Michocana for Mexican fruit popsicles, known as paletas, a nice stop to cleanse the palate. Fifth Stop, more Beverages, and a choice of 2 Tacos, that were really good, and at this point the Cruise Ship was again in view, but still a few minutes walk away. Overall a good value / experience, and a comfortable walking tour where our guide Angel watched over us, and smoothed over any language issues. Can happily endorse this excursion that is only available from this vendor via Royal Caribbean.
