Vicinte and Alex were excellent! We had two adults and 3 teenage kids, and we were cared for throughout the entire trip. It was a long day, and they made sure we were comfortable. The pink evaporation ponds were stunning. We had mostly sunny weather, and they were very colorful. We even saw flamingos in the distance. The boat ride was so fun, we saw many birds, and got a closeup view of flamingos. We also saw alligators up close. Our boat captain was prepared with fish to feed to the alligators, that was a thrill! The lunch was okay, not great. The Cenote was beautiful and fun, and very popular. Great trip that we will talk about for a long time.

Very enjoyable trip.

Vicente Esparza Escalante was a terrific guide. Very knowledgeable about the history of the area, very personable. We the extra mile to assist with access to the boat for Rio Lagartos. Avi was a skillful driver. Very interesting and beautiful to see the many different, natural colors of water during the process. Check the calendar for flamingo migration times.

Wonderful tour
