Half-day tour, awesome - A half-day with our guide Carlos, he was prompt, well spoken (in English) and very knowledgeable of the local area. Would highly recommend this tour

Luis is a very... - Luis is a very knowledgable guide about flora and fauna, surrounding resorts, history, well, just about anything in the area. He was extremely accommodating, finding me a person to take me out on a board to snorkel when I was having trouble handling the riptide on my own. The waiter at the restaurant was great, the food was good and the beach is gorgeous. The crocs are not gorgeous but very interesting as were the iguanas and shorebirds. Luis made every effort to help us take in as much as there was to offer. An added plus was that the other guests on this trip were delightful.

Ixtapa Island beach day. - This is a simple trip ride to the island/ you pay for snorkeling once you get there. 200 pesos. And the Luis the guide was super chill and nice and spoke English and Spanish. It was a yummy lunch included with your choice of two beaches to snorkel once you arrived. There was no pressure to do anything you could sit on the beach on a lounge chair the whole time. Very autonomous trip that also had great local information given if you wanted. :) can't wait to do it again!

It was a fun day - Well. This was a nice day. The tour people were lovely. They picked us up at our condo door. The island is cute … pretty much the same as Las Gatas beach. I gotta say the guy who served us at the beach restaurant Carlos was lovely and very attentive. All in all a nice day but you can get the same at Las Gatas. Worth doing for a holiday adventure

First-Timers - Having never been to Ixtapa/Zihua before, we wanted to go to Ixtapa Island with a guide, to make it easy. Pros: easy pick-up; our guide, Axel, was GREAT (friendly, funny, knew lots about the area); the included meal was generously-sized (I did upgrade to the coconut shrimp which was FANTASTIC!); it was fun to see the crocodiles and birds at Playa Linda (where you board the water taxi.) Cons: there isn't a lot to do on the island. After getting our fill of snorkeling, and enjoying our lunch, we asked to leave early. Our family was the only one with our tour guide, so we were able to. Note on the snorkeling: while this was the best snorkeling we experienced during our week here, (clear water), there just isn't a huge variety of fish to see. If you are new to snorkeling, I would recommend it here. If you are experienced, you won't need a lot of time to see everything.
