Amazing water experience - Awesome experience. It is a must go. Our guides we’re awesome, Kayle and Andre. I may be misspelling their names, one of them had sort of a blond hair and the other one had a dark hair. My guide in the water was Andre. He was very considerate and made sure that we were following him. In my group there were some first timers that were not comfortable in the water but they did it. We had a first stop that took us away from the boat and the second stop feeding the nurse sharks which was very exciting.

Experience of a lifetime - Half-day snorkeling at Hol Chan and Shark Ray Alley was an experience of a lifetime. As a novice snorkeler, I felt like I got good instruction, and the rental equipment was excellent. We had a knowledgeable and helpful guide, and the group of people happened to be fun too. Don't go to Ambergris Caye without doing this trip. The only ding from me is that our guide chummed the sharks ... which is not what you're supposed to do.

A well run operation that delivers for first timers and experienced snorkelers. - The guides were great - informative, attentive to safety and accommodating first time snorkelers and experienced ones. The boat worked as expected; unlike a reservation I had with different snorkeling company. We had plenty of time in the water seeing fantastic sea creatures. The fruit snacks were delicious. A well run operation.

Awesome Time! - Kyle and Andre were great tour guides, pointing out some amazing sea creatures for us to see up close. We were within a few feet of stingrays, barracudas, sea urchins and a lot more. A turtle swam straight up to us! Swimming with sharks in Shark Alley was really fun too. We highly recommend this tour, especially if it's your first time snorkeling.
