“This was an amazing day trip with our excellent guide Gilberto.

Ek Balam was incredibly impressive, with a great tour & information provided. The Xcanche cenote afterwards was a perfect end to a very hot day!”

Review of the Las Coloradas and Río Lagartos tour from Cancun, including pink lakes, flamingos, crocodiles, meals, transport, and value.
“We did the Las coloradas and Rio Lagartos tour but were a bit disappointed with the organisation of the tour. The stop at las coloradas is meant to be just for one spot to take a few pictures but not to visit the entire area. It's basically to get to the gate. In our case they were extracting salt on the day meaning you couldn't see anything at the gate so we were given the option to go on a bus tour within the salt complex where the pink lagoons are. We had to pay extra for this which i wasn't thrilled about since it wasn't mentioned in the description.…”

“Manuel Pat was a good guide, answering questions and making sure we were ready to move on each time. We felt safe.

Review of Cancun’s Las Coloradas and Río Lagartos tour, with pink lagoons, flamingos, crocodiles, lunch, costs, timing, and practical tips.
“Superb diversified outing on salt making in a splendid rose. Followed by a boat trip to meet the very diverse flora and fauna. The walk in the crocodile farm 🐊 is exceptional. You can carry baby crocodiles from 3 to 4 years and feed adults accompanied by staff all in the price. The only downside is the length of the journey from Cancun with traffic jams approaching the major cities that we pass through. To do absolutely!Auto-translated”
