“The guides were great, they explained every landmark that we passed. We got to enjoy beach time, while we rested and had a lite snack. I had my first snorkeling experience and it was also awesome! I was little nervous because it the water was really cold; however, once I got all the way in, it was perfect. My guide was really patient and explained every step in the process, so I felt really comfortable and had a great experience. I got to see a lot of cool fish. However, for some reason many of the photo files were too large to post. Overall, this was a great experience and…”

“Nice tour- but be prepared to bring cash, sunscreen, hats, water and eat before you come. We kayaked through the ocean, kayaked through the marshes,and then snorkeled. We also did a small hike up the hill for the views. Then came time for the actual hike, and we opted to get a ride to the beach instead which was the final meet up spot. I am glad i did that because everyone was tired, exhausted, and one of the ladies fell ill because of how strenuous the hike was. It took the group almost two hours to meet us at the beach, while we enjoyed the drinks and the ocean,…”

Loved getting on the water, getting in some good activity and pics, and back at the hotel by the pool before noon!”

“I booked the kayak and snorkel tour for my family (including 2 kids) and so glad I did. We all had such a great experience, and we couldn't have been happier with the service. Starting with Sasha, our driver, who was on time, friendly and super helpful when we were looking for restaurant recommendations in Cabo after the end of our trip. And then our guides who were incredibly patient with us, especially as we had 2 young kids in our group so they were flexible and accommodating as we were slower than the other groups in the tour (who were all adults). They made the tour fun and safe,…”
