Snorkeling with Sea Turtles - Our guide was wonderful. They led us around in the ocean finding sea turtles, rays, and other sea creatures to observe. If you do not want to take a boat and be in open water, this tour works. After our ocean visit. We went to two cenotes. The only request I would have is that the guide should have an underwater flashlight, just in case the lights go out in the cave. Otherwise, zero complaints! It was a perfect day!

Amazing Experience - Was a marvelous tour with Marcella & Hugo. Marcella with her kind words & lessons on Women Empowerment are so wise. Hugo is a gentleman who extends his hand to help you get out of the bus & keeps on asking you if you are alright & need any assistance. Had loads of fun with Marcella & Hugo. Thank you so much.

They required us to wear life vest because we were going to be swimming out from the shore into the open water. This was my first time snorkeling so it to a few minutes to adjust to the breathing but I eventually got it. The guide would yell out turtle turtle and the location and we all would swim over. We saw plenty of turtles! The waves and swimming can get the best of you but if you get tired they offer to help you back to shore. Afterwards to can shower and have a lite snack bananas before getting back on the van. Keep in mind you will drying off in the parking lot. Then we were taken to this beautiful cenote! It was amazing...you can snorkel, jump off a small cliff, lay out etc. Before leaving we were given a fruit, nuts, something to drink. The food options could've been better. But overall great tour. Would highly recommend.</p>

Mediocre... - My only complaint is that the snorkeling was not long enough. Talk about feeling rushed. I think taking the cenote stop out of the excursion is a good idea. That way the excursion focuses solely on the snorkeling with the turtles. The tour guide was very bubbly and friendly. She loves what she does.

When we got to Akumal to snorkel there was a sign that is was $6 USD and at the cenote it was $5 USD to enter, so we paid over $110 EACH for a ride to the attractions and a tour guide? I will say it was neat to see the turtles and we did see quite a few. It was windy so the water was foggy and you couldn't see very far, but that is obviously out of the control of the tour company. The cenote was BEAUTIFUL and fun to swim/jump in. The guide and driver were great, I just think this is too expensive for all the more you get.</p>
