THE RIDE

Your Own Convertible Jeep Wrangler

The tour puts you behind the wheel of a private convertible Jeep Wrangler so the island’s heat, wind and views are an immediate part of the experience—the mobility makes stops flexible and the drive itself a central element of the day.

THE HISTORY

San Gervasio and Living Mayan Culture

A certified local guide customizes the visit to include San Gervasio, an archaeological site set in the jungle, and arranges a full lunch prepared in a Mayan community or at a beachfront restaurant to complement the cultural stops.

THE COAST

East‑Coast Shorelines, Snorkel Stops and Punta Sur

The itinerary threads the scenic eastern shoreline with photo stops, beach time and snorkeling; the route culminates at Punta Sur Eco Beach Park where visitors can climb the Celarain Lighthouse for panoramic views.

You’ll be picked up at your hotel or cruise pier and handed keys to a convertible Jeep Wrangler, then follow a bilingual guide through downtown and out onto the island’s wilder east side. Stops are deliberate and varied: a shaded visit to jungle ruins, snorkeling and time on the sand, a meal prepared for your group, wildlife and coastal photo stops, and a viewpoint at Punta Sur before a relaxed return to your pickup point.
