Bucket List Excusion!!

What a fantastic experience from start to finish! Easy booking, clear communication and one of the best experiences ever! For a small group the fee was spot on, in my opinion. No secret fees or pressures upsell. Our driver, Limbert (highly recommended), picked us up at 530am in Tulum. Was pleasant and accommodating at every turn. All the equipment, including the boat were in solid working order. The team on the boat treated us all like family. It was about a hour ride on the boat to the viewing grounds. Today was a bit rough with the swells, but nothing too bad. In the end, this was my first but will not be my last excision to swim with the beautiful Whale Shark! Bonus note: if your lucky, you may get to see the Manta Rays also!!

Fantastic experience

We were on whaling safari with our tour guide Lim, alletiders guy. It was a really great experience and we got to see a lot of whale sharks. The trip ended with a bath on one of the beautiful light blue sandy beaches, followed by a delicious lunch. It was really a nice day, and Lim helped make it extra good!

Incredible experience swimming with whale sharks

We had an amazing day snorkeling with whale sharks with Limbert! He was very friendly, helpful and a great guide for our experience. We got picked up from our hotel in Tulum, then transferred to a port in Cancun where we took a boat out to search for whale sharks. Luckily for us, we saw a whole group in the water and each of us took turns in pairs to swim with a guide to view the whale sharks. Then we had a lunch of ceviche and drinks, before heading back to the port. Would highly recommend!
