Bacalar with the experts - A great experience, my family and I loved it; we had never practiced paddle surfing and the guys were very kind, Jorge, Victor, Flor, and Donovan took us away from the commercial area to a very beautiful part of the lagoon, honestly we loved it. A great option

An unforgettable experience in Bacalar with the best guides. - A simply incredible and unforgettable experience. From the first moment, everything was perfectly organized, and the professionalism, passion, and love they have for Bacalar and for nature are evident. We had the opportunity to take the tour accompanied by our guides Flor, Jesús, Donovan, and Jorge, who made the whole experience even more special. The four of them were extremely kind, attentive, patient, and professional. At all times, they were mindful of our safety, explained the techniques for enjoying paddleboarding and kayaking very clearly, and managed to make even those of us who did not have much experience feel comfortable and enjoy it to the fullest. Paddling through the lagoon while it was still dark, traveling through quiet places far from the most crowded areas, going through the mangroves, and watching the sun begin to rise was truly magical. The tranquility of the water, the colors of the sunrise, and the natural beauty of Bacalar make it an experience that is difficult to describe in words. Furthermore, the tour is not limited only to paddling. During the trip, we learned about the history of the lagoon, its flora and fauna, and we were able to truly connect with the environment. Breakfast was another of the great details of the experience: enjoying fresh and delicious food while we watched the sunrise over the lagoon was something we will definitely remember. The meditation and the moment of relaxation in the water were the perfect complement to end the tour. It feels like an experience designed to enjoy Bacalar in a different, more intimate, calm, and respectful way toward nature. We also want to highlight the care they have for the environment and for the lagoon itself. It is clear that they are not just looking to offer a tour, but to share a place that they truly love and want to preserve. The photographs and videos they took of us were an incredible detail, as they allowed us to take home spectacular memories of an experience that would have otherwise been impossible to capture. Flor, Jesús, Donovan, and Jorge, thank you very much for your attention, your patience, your joy, and for making every moment special. It is clear that they enjoy what they do, and that energy is transmitted throughout the entire tour. Without a doubt, it is one of those experiences that make a trip to Bacalar even more special. If you visit Bacalar, you cannot miss this tour. We recommend it 100% for anyone, even if it is your first time paddleboarding or kayaking. The combination of nature, adventure, tranquility, learning, and the human quality of the guides make it a truly unique experience. Many thanks to the entire ViveTour Bacalar team for a morning we will never forget!

Sunrise in Bacalar - There are experiences that are truly worth it, and this tour was one of them. Crossing the Pirates' Channel, meditating while floating in the water, watching the sun illuminate the lagoon, and being among the mangroves made everything feel much more special. Jesús, Jorge, Donovan, and Flor were very kind, attentive, and managed to create a calm and magical atmosphere throughout the entire tour. I definitely recommend it; it is one of those experiences that stays with you forever and you want to live again. 🩵

A great experience!!!! - It was a really cool experience!!!! At first I felt a little nervous, but the guides, who were Jorge, Donovan, Flor, and César, give you a lot of confidence and motivation, which makes you enjoy it to the fullest. Thanks guys!!! Also, the breakfast was very delicious and the meditation was relaxing. During the tour you go down to cool off or swim in the lagoon, which is also great!!! Thank you very much!!!
