We booked a 3 hour snorkel tour with La Leyenda and it was the highlight of our trip! David and Jesus took great care in making sure everyone was safe and informed, and had an amazing snorkeling experience. We had a group of 6, with varying swimming abilities, but David ensured the comfort and safety of everyone. They provide high quality masks, snorkels, fins, and life jackets. We felt so safe and comfortable in the water with Jesus, who led us through the two areas. The tour included snacks and beverages in between the two snorkeling spots. David was so kind and knowledgeable about the area, sea life, and snorkeling. They even include underwater photos and photos while on the boat. I highly recommend them for your water tours in costa maya.
Our family (ages 16-55) all absolutely loved this excursion. Directions on where to meet were clear right from the start. We loved that it was a small group of just our family. Although we arrived 30 min early, they were ready for us and started right away. We saw so many beautiful fish and even a few stingrays. David and Jesus took such great care of us and were so personable. What an absolutely great excursion. Everyone was so kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. It was a fun surprise to see all the photos they included (at no extra cost - rare these days) afterwards. What a nice bonus. We would totally recommend!
We booked a three hour snorkeling tour with La Leyenda. The experience was wonderful. They were organized and prepared for our group. We previously used another company and felt that La Leyenda was superior including the logistics of getting to their boat and accessing your gear etc. Our guides Zach and Jesus were very knowledgeable and made us very comfortable. We traveled with 3 adults and a 15 year old.
Our snorkeling trip with Zac and Mr. Jesus was great! Neither of us had been snorkeling before and Zac did a good job at explaining the equipment and making us feel comfortable getting in the water. We struggled a bit at first, but he talked us through it and helped us calm down. Zac seemed really familiar with the area and took us to a couple good spots. We saw a sting rays, a sea turtle and lots of different fish. When I booked, I told them that we'd be there celebrating my partners' birthday and they brought a slice of cake for us to eat on the boat and helped make his day really special. It was a memorable day!
Thank you for coming with us on our 3 hour snorkeling excursion, and again Happy Birthday to your partner!
Miguel and his partner was awesome. Even though the water wasnt clear due to weather they ensured we had the most amazing time. Very understanding, and cooperative when you feel nauseous or get overwhelmed as well.
We wish the conditions were always 100% for our 3 hour snorkeling excursions, but thank you for understanding and we're so glad you had a great time!
Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate for our excursion, but the owners of this company were so kind and helpful. Got our money back right away and got to use their beach area for free. Their boats looked really nice and safe. We will be back to do this excursion in the future. Thank you!
Hopefully next time the weather will participate! Thank you again for choosing us :)
We missed our 10:00 time but we got a private trip at 1:00 that day.
We're glad we were able to provide some flexibility that day! Thanks for coming with us!
Everything about the trip was great - the instructions and transportation, the owners and the guides, and the snorkeling!
Thank you for coming with us on our 3 hour snorkeling experience! We're very happy you had a good time with us!
Great tour! Explanations, attention, service. We were able to enjoy seeing many types of fish on the reef, a turtle, and two species of manta rays. They take care of you the entire time. The equipment they provide for snorkeling is in optimal condition. It is definitely worth it!
Muchas gracias! Agradecemos mucho su visita y que lo hayan pasado muy bien! :)
Cpt Zach & Jesus were terrific hosts, and made every effort for my husband and I to have a excellent adventure. Although, the weather wasn't as nice as we would have hoped for; Cpt Zach took the time to find great areas to snorkel and Jesus guided us to all the best spots in the water. Between dive areas, Cpt Zach made us some refreshments (handmade guacamole along with beer and soda). We saw a sting ray and many beautiful varieties of smaller fish in the coral reefs. Even though, the sea was rough, and I ended up getting queasy, Cpt Zach was very attentive and made sure I had the most comfortable experience possible, while Jesus and my husband took in other areas to snorkel. We received lovely pictures of our trip along with some of their highlights from other adventures. Thank you, Jesus for taking pictures! I really appreciated the kindness and ease of the experience from booking, prior communication, to the warm welcome we received and the effort that everyone gave us to make our experience as pleasurable as possible. Thank you very much and I would recommend your company in a heartbeat!
We're so glad you had a great experience with us (despite the not-so-perfect weather!) on our 3 hour snorkeling excursion!
