Sunset boat trip - Jesus and David were the best crew to go with! Hilarious, amazing vibes and catered to our every need. Very informative about where we were going and the history but kept it light with lots of jokes and laughter! Highly recommend going and request them if you can 10/10 experience

Great way to view the best sunset ever - We had a great time on the lagune of bacalar. Vicky, David and Luis were good guides they took us to the best places and explained the origine of the black cenote, pirate canal and more. Moreover they took us to a brilliant place to watch the sunset. You need to get up early but it worthwhile the effort.

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.
