Nice experience with a great tour operator and helpful guide

Published on Mar, 2024

There was some initial hiccups in the tour due to miscommunication between the tour operator and the tour guide where he wasn't informed that I don't understand or speak Spanish at all. But as soon as I told this to the tour operator, they were very nice to coordinate everything smoothly and the guide was also very accommodating and helpful for the rest of the tour. In fact, my booking was for a different pickup location but the tour operator was kind enough to pick and drop me from/to my hotel itself without any extra charges. The tour as such is standard - we see pink lagoon, then visit a private beach for swimming, followed by boat ride where we get to see lots of crocodiles, pelicans and even few pink flamingos (albeit from afar) which was the highlight of this tour and ending with a delicious complementary lunch. So overall a satisfactory experience.

Great tour!!

This tour gets an absolute recommendation from us! Our drivers and guides Santiago and Edi have accompanied us very well and we have spent a day with many beautiful impressions! Everything was wonderfully organized, we especially enjoyed the boat tour on Rio Lagartos very much, where we saw so many animals up close. THANK YOU for the trip!

Nature adventure just a couple hours from Mérida

Published on May, 2023

Brilliant pink water, flamingoes, swimming in warm green waters, Mayan mud baths, close encounters with crocodiles, feeding a frigate bird...so much more to this adventure than described! Loved our team of tour guides: Victor, Eddy, and our great driver, Joaquin.

Extremely fun day, interesting places to see

Published on Feb, 2023

Mucho divertido!! The tour went to some really beautiful places, very fun time with all the others on the tour. One of the best tours I have ever joined. Note: It would probably be difficult if you don't understand Spanish. Bring sunscreen! I thought since it was cloudy and February that I wouldn't get burnt, and now I look like a lobster.
