Most amazing experience! - I joined the 6:30 AM tour and it was an amazing experience. Hugo picked me up directly from my hotel and took us out toward the mangroves. Along the way we saw flamingos, pelicans, many other fascinating birds, and even a crocodile! The tour was well organized, enjoyable, and a wonderful way to start the day. I highly recommend it!

Best Experience in Holbox - I had an amazing experience seeing the bioluminescence in Holbox. Our guide, Victor Hugo, was absolutely fantastic, super patient with me since I don’t have kayaking experience. At some point he even put me in his own kayak (probably because I would eventually get lost) and made sure we all felt safe and comfortable. He shared so much knowledge about the area and the wildlife around us, which made the whole adventure even more fascinating. The bioluminescence itself was magical, but what really made the night unforgettable was his care and good humor. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Holbox!

Great bioluminescence experience in Punta Mosquito - Victor Hugo, our guide, was friendly, patient, reassuring and gentle, despite my mother's apprehensions. He gave us the news in an interesting, playful and perfect English. I recommend it completely!
