Not to be missed! - Not only was it beautiful and did we get to see so much wildlife, Nikita was the MOST amazing guide. She was so knowledgeable about all the animals and the area, and engaged with us the entire time. I would highly recommend this excursion (with Nikita!) to anyone!!! Lunch was also so tasty and in a beautiful spot

Visit to Sian Ka’an - The whole experience was great! We spent most of the time on the boat, but we were able to see dolphin and sea turtles. We stopped for lunch at a local village and then it was back on the boat.

It’s worth the money. - This tour delivered more than expected. Abraham was an excellent knowledgeable guide. Pick up at our Airbnb was exactly on time. No hidden fees or sales.
Now the best part:
There are no guarantees, but we saw crocodiles, sea turtles, a manatee, bottle nose dolphins, and lots of birds. While snorkeling we saw a sting ray, giant lobster and a cat shark. Then of course the beautiful beach and tasty lunch. It was absolutely amazing! It was our favorite activity in Tulum.

Visit to the sian ka’an reserve - 2nd excursion made with Paseo tour this year.
Van is on time like the first time.
Our guide Miguel angelo really great, apart from his great knowledge about Mexico and the region, he was extremely kind to our group of 10 people composed of adults and 4 children in the 8/10 years approx. Always asking if everything was going well, if we wanted more info etc... really great 👍🏻
We were lucky enough to see dolphins and a huge turtle. No crocodiles but it doesn’t matter. the rest was just happiness. The great boat and the road to get there had just been Redone so great.
I recommend this excursion to all nature and water lovers.

Not great - It was very boat centric to an extreme. The "beach" was actually a shallow part in the ocean. It felt like we could never dry off and it became uncomfortable. The meal was sparse and flavorless.
