Nice contact! - Private sailing trip booked with Sara from Bakanabsailing. Unfortunately due to the rain and engine problems of the boat, the original trip was cancelled. Alternatively, be able to sail with another tour later and receive a refund from Sara.

The highlight of bacalar! - This was definitely the highlight of our trip to Bacalar! Sara and Gonzalo were incrediblez knowledgeable, fun, and great hosts. They ensured our trip was amazing, asking questions on the way to make sure we saw what we wanted, checking in to make sure we were comfortable and happy. The 3pm tour was the best time as well, warm enough to enjoy the water and cooling down at the end. Definitely recommend!

Professionalism , courtesy and competence - We took a sailing tour in the lagoon on June 9 with sara and gonzalo. We had so much fun, they took us to wonderful places in the lagoon not frequented by other tourists, with crystal clear water and a heavenly silence; they left us a lot of time to swim and they granted our every request. Highly recommended!!

Poor management/organisation - In itself, I never write bad reviews. Luis was incredibly nice and great boat driver. He couldn't help it. Problem was the management. We stayed 2 days in Bacalar - Tuesday to Thursday. We booked the trip for Wednesday through trip advisor. On Wednesdays there are unfortunately no tours in the whole of Bacalar (forbidden). The guide therefore offered us Thursday. We agreed to 08:00. Unfortunately there was little wind and Luiz (boatmaster) said we need the engine. He tried to turn on the engine for 2 hours (until about 10:15). Then, at our request, a new boat arrived. This made it clear that we were missing the ADO bus. So we were transferred from Wednesday to Thursday (have already paid) and had to wait until 10:15 am. Therefore, my requirement to refund the ADO ticket is justified in my view. That would be about 20% of the tour price by boat.
