Amazing Wildlife & Authentic Experience – Highly Recommended! - This was by far the best excursion we experienced during our two-week stay in Mexico. Our guide Paul made this tour truly special by taking us far away from the typical tourist crowds and showing us incredible wildlife, including many birds and monkeys in their natural habitat. The ride in the classic VW Beetle was a lot of fun and added a unique, authentic touch to the whole experience. We also enjoyed a delicious and truly local breakfast, which made the day even more memorable. Paul went above and beyond by capturing amazing photos and videos for us, giving us lasting memories of this wonderful day. To top it all off, the tour ended with snorkeling alongside turtles, where we were treated with great care and attention. We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an authentic, personal, and unforgettable experience in Mexico!

Highlight of our holiday - This was our 2nd day trip with Paul. We had enjoyed our trip to Chichen Itza with him so much that we asked him to devise a day for us around snorkelling with turtles. Our day included: - Manta Ray spotting in Puerto Morelos; - snorkelling with turtles at Akumal; - a beautiful, relaxing cenote with 4 pools; - detour through Playa del Carmen for hot chocolate and cake; - authentic, rustic Mexican lunch; - a jungle walk - highlight was seeing a troop of spider monkeys. Paul is friendly, professional, multilingual and very knowledgeable. Nothing is too much trouble for him and my husband and I and our 2 grown sons enjoyed both our days with him immensely and they made our holiday in Mexico worthwhile and memorable. Paul also took lots of photos which is a lovely added bonus. Book Paul for any trip and you will certainly not regret it.

Birds and more - We were recommended to do a tour with Paul in Cancùn and we chose to aim to Isla Blanca early morning to enjoy wildlife and virgin beaches - fantastic ! Big plus, he shared pictures from the trip of an outstanding quality (birds, landscapes, etc) ! I have to say Paul is himself part of the experience as being funny, open-minded, multilingual, passionate about Mexico’s culture and wildlife, which made this trip enjoyable and friendly. Paul is very responsive and client-oriented, communication by WhatsApp was smooth and precise. During the trip, we were lucky enough to spot a wide variety of birds, counting a - young - great black hawk, pelicans, osprey and many others! In a nutshell, if you are in Cancùn or planning a trip to Yucatán, don’t hesitate. Thanks again Paul ! PS: Paul’s mythical Beetle is part of the experience
