This was an absolutely amazing experience. Our guide took so much trouble to ensure that we enjoyed the day and take photos for us. We got to see a fantastic variety of fish and sealife and held a starfish and a sea urchin. The lunch was very tasty. A real highlight of our trip.

Our guide for the tour was Luis. He has a wealth of knowledge about the city, it’s history, restaurant recommendations and other things to do and see. The Tour people were right on time picking us up. The equipment was in great condition. The kayaking took us past some really nice beach views and Luis knew all the history of the area. The snorkeling was amazing. Countless types of fish and wouldn’t you know it, Luis told us what they were and some facts about the species. Lunch was delicious.Luis is an amazing guide.

Luis is an amazing guide. The day was a real treat. He ensured we had everything we needed, shared great stories and facts about Zihuatanejo as we kayaked the bay. Snorkeling along Las Gatas was like swimming through an aquarium. An amazing variety of fish and sea life. Luis identified each species as we went along. I highly recommend and will use Luis as guide when I return.Is the first time I did snorkeling was fun Everything what I saw is great the food is delicious and very friendly people

We had such a fun experience with Luis and his son! He picked us up from our hotel in the morning, showed us different places he recommends along the way to the beach, was so great in guiding us on the kayak tour and set us up for snorkeling with a guide once we arrived at the beach. Snorkeling was so fun and we had time afterwards to eat lunch and order some drinks before our trip back. Definitely would recommend this afternoon adventure!!
