I would give this tour 10 stars ⭐️ if I could! The tour operator Edgar was very attentive. He explained to us the day before that on Wednesdays boats are not allowed on the Bacalar lagoon proper and took us to an alternative location. The alternative location happens to be the biggest Xenote Xul HA and it feeds the Bacalar Lagoon. We had the entire Lagoon and Cenote to ourselves! The water was surreal. Our driver Ricardo went above and beyond to take good care of us. He took us to a Rotisserie chicken place w tacos which was delicious! We had soda, water and beer throughout the entire tour. We would definitely book a them again! We had an amazing time! Highly recommend
Thank you so much for your amazing review! Knowing you would give us **10 stars** truly means a lot to us. We're delighted you enjoyed your day at beautiful **Xul-Ha**. While Wednesdays have navigation restrictions on the Bacalar Lagoon, we're always committed to providing the best possible experience for our guests. Ricardo will be thrilled to hear your kind words. We're also happy you enjoyed the local tacos—one of our favorite hidden gems! Thank you for choosing Costa Maya Paradise and for your recommendation. We hope to welcome you back soon for another unforgettable adventure in Costa Maya! Warm regards, Edgar
Everything was marvelous. Pick-up and return were punctual. The waters of the lake are so clear that we felt like we were swimming in the best beaches in the world. Ricardo's personalized attention was spectacular.
Nos alegra saber que disfrutaron de la belleza de la Laguna de los Siete Colores y que todo, desde la puntualidad hasta el servicio, cumplió con sus expectativas. Ricardo estará muy contento de saber que hizo de su visita una experiencia tan especial. Esperamos tener el placer de recibirlos nuevamente en Costa Maya para seguir descubriendo juntos las maravillas del Caribe Mexicano. ¡Hasta la próxima! 🌴
The land transfer was very good; the driver was very kind to us, but the tour of the lagoon was not as expected. The engine of the vessel that was taking us broke down, and we had to wait an hour for a new one to arrive. Due to all the time we lost, we were unable to visit any of the places described by the tour. We did not see the cenotes nor the pirate canal.
