Beautiful boat tour on the Bacalar lagoon - Amazing ride with my 4 friends. We took the tour through Hotel Yak. The 2.5 hours went very well. The water was beautiful, the visits to the cenotes and the two bathing places near the island of birds perfect. In all over 2h30, there is 1h-1h30 bathing more or less. The sunset was beautiful.

I only fell over once lol - Great introduction to paddle boarding and beautiful views - no one else around for hundreds of metres for the most part. David was a great guide. I would say as a beginner a 2.5 hour paddle board experience was a bit too long, but really great otherwise and most people wouldn’t complain about that! For the sunset experience I would have preferred to be in a kayak as I would have been able to watch it better and relax more

Sunset boat tour - Bacalar - We did the sunset boat tour and it was an amazing trip. We visited 3 cenotes all beautiful, bird island and the passing to the other lagoon. Luis and Abraham were out tour guides and they were amazing. They were so knowledgeable and gave us amazing insight into the local wildlife. An amazing trip!

Bacalar: sunset between cenotes and birds - We hosted Luis and Captain Abraham, both explained to us each of the places we visited were three Cenotes and we had the opportunity to get off for a swim. we were able to live with the group and the bird watching on the island of birds. It was a unique moment we concluded our trip in the canal of the pirates at sunset, enjoying our drinks, preferred on board.

10/10 sunset tour with David - We had an amazing sunset tour with David! He took us to the mangroves which was so peaceful and beautiful. We then watched the sunset in the middle of the lagoon which was absolutely stunning! Would definitely do this again!

A nice way to see things - I did this on New YEars Eve in a small group. Our guide was helpful and knowledgeable and took photos of us which he then sent through that evening. There was a bit of a head wind on the way out and it was not the nicest of weather days but this was nobodies fault ! All in all it was a nice trip and was well priced.
