A relaxing day in a true paradise! Our tour guide, Oscar, and the driver picked us up from our hotel and provided us with a breakfast box to enjoy during our journey to Bacalar. Upon arriving in Bacalar, we visited the fortress, where Oscar shared many fascinating details about the local history and… pirates! We then embarked on a boat tour of the lagoon, which was simply amazing. We made two stops, giving us plenty of time to swim, relax, and take pictures! Finally, we enjoyed a delicious lunch with a stunning view of the lagoon before heading back to Tulum. I must say that, compared to other tours where you receive very little (or nothing at all) and are constantly rushed from one stop to another, Oscar and the drivers went above and beyond. They kept offering us drinks and always ensured we were comfortable, relaxed, and had everything we needed to fully enjoy our day. Thank you!!

Belle and Romal were excellent hosts. Very friendly and knowledgeable. The drinks were flowing freely and Belle was always check to see if anyone needed anything. The lagoon is beautiful and we saw an amazing sunset. Book with them. You won't be sorry.

Super nice and sweet guide, his helper on the boat was super nice. We felt very comfortable. He told us a lot about the lagoon and gave us tips for further travel. super good

Amazing experience at a beautiful lagoon with lovely people and delicious food!! Allan was very knowledgeable and really kind. Thank you so much for an amazing day

Two very friendly guides and a great discovery of the lagoon. Fruit tasting and swimming. I recommend!
