Must do, magical experience! - We had a complete blast on this tour. We got to see whales and make new friends for the day. Was the perfect amount of people on the boat and not to overwhelming. The staff was so amazing, and hard working (Especially Daniel). Just do it, you won't regret.

Amazing Tour to Usla Tortuga - This was absolutely amazing. Obviously the snorkeling was the highlight. Everything was very well organized. The guides were super friendly and great. You could feel that they love what they are doing. I can only recommend this tours.

Beautiful Snorkeling,... - Beautiful snacking, nice and kind staff, good music on board. The dinner was very good! My disappointment was the beach. Too many people, very touristic, very little free space shaded, chairs for rent very expensive. We couldn't wait to leave. I'd do snorkeling again without the beach.

A good chill day out - It was a good chill day out. We saw the dolphins and the whales, and the fish were quite good. The music on the boat was great, and not too loud. Our guide, Wildon, and the other helpers were all nice.

Turtle Island snorkeling tour - This is a good tour if you’re looking for to get into a mellow mood! We booked this tour because we thought we were going to see sea turtles on an island, but instead got to go on a cool quick boat ride to do some awesome snorkeling along reefs with beautiful reef fishes, a delicious lunch on an island called Turtle island, but is really named Tolinga island and only looks like a turtle from a certain angle! Anywho… No sea turtles , but it was all good because our tour had free beers! Pura Vida!

Isla Tortuga with Zuma Tours - Everything was taken care of. Drinks, fruit and lunch were excellent. Everything was super punctual and the team very nice. Since the actual snorkeling place was too crowded we went to another one we had all to ourselves.beautiful. We were lucky and could even see whales. In addition to tourists, there were also many locals who spent their Sundays there. Definitely recommended.
Personally, we would have liked to have snorkeled more and spent less time on the island. But even here you can enjoy a Steandtag.

Decent snorkelling, tourist trap island - The shuttle and boat ride were well organized and the Zuma Tours staff was excellent. The snorkelling was not very exciting and the snorkelling gear was not great. The island they took us to for lunch was very unpleasant - tons of tourists crammed on a small beach - loud music- and everything cost extra - even the bathrooms. Lunch was good but then you have two hours to entertain yourself before the boat ride back. There is one hiking trail that is interesting and we swam a bit in and around many drunken tourists. We would have been happy to leave after lunch and avoid the tourist trap island!
