maggie3 Posted October 17, 2011 #1 Share Posted October 17, 2011 We have visited Chichen Itza and Tulum, and just for something to do, we may book a shore excursion to the San Gervasio Ruins on Cozumel, and Playa Mia. Are these particular ruins at San Gervasio impressive at all, (I know they won't compare to the other two) or should we just stick to the beach?

Compared to Tulum, they are quite small. They are ok if you never been to any ruins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockbock Posted October 17, 2011 #3 Share Posted October 17, 2011 We went to San Gervasio last week. There are a few photos included in this review: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1500129 If you need more photos to convince you one way or the other, I can post some more for you.

Laughing Angel Posted October 17, 2011 #5 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I thought they were worth a look, but I've not been to the more prominent ruins. Since you've been to Chichen Itza and Tulum, I'd go ahead and make it a beach day. Unless you're an archeologist and just gotta do it, there's nothing you'll see at San Gervasio that you haven't seen bigger, better or more spectacular on the mainland.

teddy'sgirl Posted October 19, 2011 #6 Share Posted October 19, 2011 I have to agree. We went in March and honestly, they are nothing like what you've already seen. The only thing impressive we say there were the iguanas. Biggest ones I've ever seen! :eek: These ruins are not in wide open spaces like the ones you've already been to. They are set back into the trees and they are not many visitors. I decided the reason the iguana were so big was because they had to be eating the tourists! LOL :D Skip the ruins, skip the iggies, enjoy the beach! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laughing Angel Posted October 20, 2011 #7 Share Posted October 20, 2011 The iguanas had to be eating the tourists...Hahaha! teddy'sgirl, you are pretty funny. :D Yeah, those iguanas are a pretty healthy size. I don't even want to guess what they've actually been snacking on... :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted October 22, 2011 #8 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Don't bother. You've seen two of the most famous Mayan ruins already! San Gervasio is a pile of rocks compared to either Tulum or, for sure, Chichen Itza! Go to a beach or snorkel instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
