Our guide for the day was Edar and driver Miguel both were wonderfully personable and knowledgeable of the area. There SOMETIMES are trams on the pier to take you from the ship to the port entrance. The Native Choice office is easy to locate following directions they provide. There is also a fairly long walk to get from your ship, through the port and out to the street. They also own The Native Choice that in less than 10 years has become the first Local Tour Operator in Costa Maya. You can also get a cab, if needed, outside the port.ĭo note that there is quite a bit of walking on the ruins tour, some of it on uneven ground. Cozumel Choice is the company founded by the brothers David and Juan Villagómez (from the popular David Tours in Costa Maya) that share a big passion for the Mayan culture, history and for nature. If there are no mobility issues, you will be fine. Their office is about 1/4 - 1/3 of a mile from the port. Local vendors are definitely the most cost effective option and the best in the Port of Costa Maya is The Native Choice.
