6 tours · €54–€127 per person · ★ 4.7
Cancún boat tours split three ways, and the 6 here were picked by hand from every listing rated 4.5★ or higher. Prices run from €54 per person for a shared speedboat you steer yourself through the mangrove channels to a reef snorkel stop to €127 for a boat fiesta with live mariachi, tastings and a tequila bar. In between sit the party boat in Cancún, adults only with a DJ and all you can drink, and the sunset sail with appetizers and an open bar. The jungle speedboat is a daytime family format in a guided convoy of two seater boats; the boat party is a night out.
A quick way to choose: hotel pickup is left out of the speedboat and party boats, so plan the marina run yourself; the dock and marine park fee is paid in cash on the day and sits outside the price; and read the age lines, since party boats are eighteen and over while the speedboats take children from six with an adult. Weather decides the water games and snorkel stops. The best reviewed Cancún boat tours come first below.
