Cool Experience!! - This was a really fun excursion! There were four of us, two adults and two teens. It was a really cool experience for all of us! The kayaking was easy to keep up with the guide and the ceremony was very neat to be a part of. Definitely recommend it if you are in Holbox during a full moon!

Nice ceremony, worrisome kayaking - It started with an opening cacao ceremony, which was very lovely. However, the kayaking component of the experience was disorganized and one of my friends felt very unsafe. One of the participants was a professional kayak guide and said that they took everyone too far out into the ocean at night and did not have enough staff members to support people who needed to return to shore. The ceremony itself was really nice, but the kayaking component needs to be improved substantially.
