IzzyB Posted August 3, 2022 Report Share Posted August 3, 2022 I know that the Exclusive drive one is a smaller tour, so less people, but has anyone done the Chacchoben Mayan Ruins & Bacalar Lagoon Beach tour? Is it smaller or bigger? Is the ruins tour more guided? How was the lagoon part? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChessE4 Posted August 3, 2022 Report Share Posted August 3, 2022 We took a different tour to Lake Bacalar (rafting trip which started in mangroves) and admit it was peaceful but not really what we were expecting. Having been to Chacchoben, I would stick to that. Generally, what Lake Bacalar offers is a chance to swim or rent kayaks, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It said 90 minutes at ruins and the entire thing is 5.5 hours where ruins by themselves is 4 hours. With travel time to and from port I imagine the ruins would be 2 hours on most tours. So 30 minutes less at ruins? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennaRCB Posted August 4, 2022 Report Share Posted August 4, 2022 I didn't do the exclusive drive tour and thought it was totally fine! My excursion had a group of people enough to fill up one coach bus, but it didn't feel crowded and the guide was great. https://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/2021/09/16/excursion-focus-chacchoben-ruins-costa-maya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
