MTA was an absolutely professional company to work with. The communication leading up to the excursion was great, our guide was a knowledgeable biologist that was very interactive, and the boat and captain was fantastic. The food for lunch was very good. We saw a baby grey whale, several groups of humpback whales and a pod of common dolphins. Unfortunately we did not manage to free dive with any animals, however the day could not have been better! Our trip was a great value, and I would highly recommend MTA for any excursion.

Great tour with Alexis and Jesus, we seen the best nature on Isla espíritu and we were up nice and close with the seal lions! We had a great group people which also made the day great! You can watch my vlog on YouTube, name diariesofanaddict: Isla espíritu 2025 This will make you want to go :) Thanks
