Don’t miss this!!! It is a must

Published on Mar, 2025

It was absolutely great to swim with sea lions and to watch penguins very near! The crew was very nice and I would do it again!!!

Good, good time!

Was a really good experience. Was meant to do it on another day, but it was cancelled due to the port being closed. But some swift communication with the tour operator got me a new date and time very quickly. Julio was our guide and he was really helpful. He assisted us with that cancellation and rebooking, so all praise to him for everything going smoothly. There are many, many sea lions. It’s a sight to see, and the swimming was very fun too!

Unique and fun experience

Published on Mar, 2025

It was a fun experience, and something that we will always remember, as this is the only time that we have had the option to swim with sea lions. As soon as they see the boat, they start to make their way in the water. Points to note are that you are in a speed boat, with no shade. You will get wet from spray, especially if you are near the front, so make sure you have your dry stuff in a plastic bag. If you suffer from motion sickness, or have back or neck issues, then the boat ride may be too bumpy for you.

Must Do Adventure!

Swimming with sea lions was exhilarating! Rodrigo & staff were great guides and very personable and knowledgeable. The personal go-pro photos and video taken as a souvenir were a nice addition to such an Amazing tour! I highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting a unique Lima experience. I rarely ever participate in human/wild animal activities with concern over the exploitation of the animals. In no way did I feel like that was the case on this adventure. There was great care taken for the safety of the sea lions and the respect of their territory and also great precautions were taken for us as active participants and our safety. I would do this all over again in the future! Thank you for a great memory in Peru!

Love Sea Lions

Published on Mar, 2025

this tour given by Mar Adventoro excursions with our guide Julio. Overall the experience was great. The company had great communication with us and the tour was well worth it. Highly recommend swimming with the sea lions when you get the chance as it was well worth it and a very cool experience. Julio was also great, especially when getting in the water.
