The best operator, tour guide and excursion

I love love love this company - we went a few years ago as a couple and this year we went with a group of 10 friends including children. We had the absolute best day - tons of whale sharks and manta rays. Our tour guide Dara was more than amazing - in fact we had her the day before on another excursion and asked for her specifically because she was so fun, and great with the kids. She really made the day for us!

There is a lot of travel...

There is a lot of travel and you should be a good swimmer. But we got some amazing shots with the whale sharks. We got lucky with our guide - he was an excellent photographer/videographer.

Whale Shark Wonders!

Swimming with a whale shark rates highly on anybody's list but guide Cora made the whole day extra special. The boat team was friendly, knowledgeable, professional - everything you could wish for! This team will create for you a day full of spectacular memories...lunch on a floating table in crystal clear waters was a first! :-)

I won’t forget this day, incredible!

Amazing day! Around 45 mins out to sea in speedboat. Second boat to reach where the Whale sharks and Manta Rays were feeding en masse. Got to swim with both and got some amazing video clips. Luis (our guide) looked after my younger daughter in the water. Nice stop at Isla Mujeres on the way back to PDC for a beer and some ceviche/sandwiches and a swim/snorkelling

highly recommend this experience

Our guide Ruben was extremely knowledgeable and pleasant to talk to. He gave us plenty of information about whale sharks to help us understand how the experience operates so we would know what to expect. The swim with the whale sharks was incredible.
