Excellent tour, great guide, very professional and friendly team. - Excellent all round. Lovely staff, professional, friendly and knowledgeable. Met us at the starting point with coffee and biscuits, very welcoming. Slight itinerary change (Punta Cocos instead of Punta Mosquitos, due to strong winds and choppy seas on the north side of Holbox) which was clearly explained to us in advance. The beaches/island we visited were beautiful- we saw dolphins very close to the boat, flamingos, ospreys and many other shore and sea birds. We would definitely book with them again. We would recommend getting the first trip of the day - it’s lovely having the beaches and observation towers more or less to yourself.

Excellent option not to miss! - It left on schedule said in time, very good Service, Willie very friendly explained every detail of the tour, in each space, but at the same time gave us spaces to enjoy each place with peace of mind. We visited very nice places and took the 9am tour, I recommend it but we were the 1st to arrive at some places and so even if you have a little more taste.

Beautiful journey - Julie was an amazing and enthusiastic guide who went above and beyond to make us all comfortable and informed. Our morning group tour turned into a private one for our family (me and two teen girls) which was a nice surprise to have a small boat all to ourselves. The captain was kind. We appreciated how they circled back a bit once to pick up some trash floating in the ocean. Their love of Holbox shined through. We loved the cenote most but all stops are great. Good to be pointed to the cheapest empanadas in town at the end. Loved! Only felt bad that the ATM was out of order nearby that morning and we didn’t have the cash handy to tip better.

Fun way to experience the highlights of Isla Holbox - We really enjoyed our tour today. I felt like it was a great introduction to the diverse ecosystem of Yum Balam nature reserve. Our tour guide, David, did a great job of pointing out the highlights. We got to swim in refreshing spring waters, take a scenic walk on a sand bar and even see pink flamingos. Recommended!

David is the best! - We truely enjoyed our tour in a very private setting. We were just with three people in total on a lovely small boat. Our tourguide David was a gem! Very enthousastic & engaging. He spoke very good English, was full of information and funny. We loved our tour very much. And didn't think it would be this fun, because a lot of tourist do the same toue, nut David managed to make it special and unique.

Tres Islas was a hit! - We did the Tres Islas tour with David. He was lovely and gave us lots of good information about the three places we visited. It's a lovely way to see more of the area and do something different. Very happy we went. And we got closer to the flamingos than we did on the whale shark tour, which was a pleasant surprise.

Good tour to know Holbox - This tour is a good way to get to know Holbox and its surroundings. At the starting point, they welcome you and have bathrooms. The guide, David, was very friendly and attentive. You can see his passion for making Holbox known and his interest in meeting his tourists. We had the opportunity to get off at each stop to enjoy the views, birds and beaches. The duration of the tour felt adequate. Something that can improve is that the tour term is not at the same point as the departure and that is not indicated in Viator or previously. Also, it would be good to have showers in the facilities to rinse after swimming in the sea.
