I Didn't Enjoy It

3/4 of the trip is a city bus to and from. I should have done a water taxi without the tour. The village smelled of human waste. The walkway had a couple of bridges and stairs that are very unsafe. The guide is a nice guy. I just felt it wasn't worth my time.

Amazing experience

Amazon experience with Diego and Samir ( captain). Diego made sure that he explained everything in English as well. My son and I don’t know how to swim and Diego keeping a tab in us. Great experience to see all the islands and snorkeling.

Short, sweet and worthwhile

Andres was great! He pointed out fish and fauna and gave us the story of the arches while showing us what to look for. I saw a ray and lots of blue footed boobys. Well worth the money.

Great guide!

Easy meeting spot and our guide Diego greeted us and gave us all the information needed that ensure a great excursion. We needed to take the public bus to the boat after meeting up with our guide but he escorted us and made us feel comfortable. Once at Los Arcos park, Diego gave us tons of information about the area, its history and the protected animals. He stayed nearby during our snorkeling time and even pointed out sea life whenever he spotted something cool. He was wonderful! Highly recommend the trip. We saved a ton going through Viator vs our hotel’s agent.

Great Experience!!

We had a great time today on our snorkeling tour. Guillermo was a fantastic guide. Knowledgeable and make sure we were safe and cared for the whole time. After the tour we spent time on Mismaloya beach and enjoyed some food at the restaurant and hung out with some street dogs. Great day. Would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone!

Very fun experience!

Our tour guide Diego and the boat captain Luis were incredible. Diego seems to have lots of pride in what he does, he went above and beyond for my wife and I along with the rest of the people there . The fishing town you go to is beautiful & lots of friendly people. Get your ice cream on your way back to the drop off point. You won’t regret it 10/10
