Everything went really well on the tour! We were contacted the day before via WhatsApp. The pick-up worked really well. First we drove to a lagoon with lots of crocodiles. Then we drove to the lake. Here we were taken in a traditional boat. The surroundings are very idyllic! We saw two elephants (out of respect the distance is maintained), we also saw lots of birds, fruit bats and jumping fish. You sometimes drive into and past the mangroves. On the way you get a fresh coconut to drink. We planted a new mangrove tree. Our guide Rishan was super nice and knew a lot about nature and the animals. We also drove to a beautiful beach that is occasionally used by experienced surfers. Everything was really beautiful. I can recommend the tour, especially from 3:30 p.m. at sunset.

We had an excellent time with our guide Richie! He was punctual when he picked us up at the hotel in his tuk tuk, he was very friendly, and thanks to him we were able to see crocodiles, elephants, and many species of birds. This mangrove tour is peaceful and rich in wildlife. I would definitely recommend this activity!

We had a great afternoon tour with our guide Hanas. We were able to take our time and saw lots of animals (crocodiles, elephants, eagles, bats, etc.). Hanas told us lots about the animals and the area. We enjoyed it so much that we spontaneously booked a safari with him in Kumana National Park. Highly recommended!
