Our guide was Miguel and he had a broad set of knowledge on topics ranging from the natural habitats we explored via the kayak (we went out on kayaks as it was too windy for paddle boarding) to how best to use the kayaks themselves. The route we took was beautiful and we were given goggles at a certain spot in order to look for fish in a spot that Miguel chose for us to swim at, near some rocks. We were also guided under a waterfall which Miguel took photos of us doing, along with many other moments (he even captured video for us too). Overall the excursion was a great deal of fun, nicely paced and interesting and informative too! Thanks a lot!

Not only did they notify me that my reservation did not coincide with the flight schedule, but they also prevented me from going to the airport at 4 in the morning when the flight left at 2:30 p.m. For the rest, both the punctuality, the way of driving, the cleanliness of the vehicle and the cordiality of the driver were excellent.

The driver (professionally dressed) was waiting at the airport with a visible sign. Took us right to the nearby parking lot. Ride was very pleasant!

Despite the delay, the driver waited patiently and took us quickly and directly to the hotel.

Super nice snorkeling trip with enthusiastic guide. Recommended
