    Great way to swim in the best bits of the laguna.
    It was a great day out. Tony the guide was welcoming, knowledgeable and friendly. The price was worth every penny. The fruit and ice cold drinks were a nice touch.

    Best trip of the holiday
    Fantastic trip. Best thing we have done in Bacalar. Such a lovely way to start the day and see all the best sights without lots of tour boats flging around. As its early you also get to swim in cenote negro which can't be done on boat tours!

    Excellent tour!
    Thank you so much, I really recommend this tour - well worth the money. It was the most gorgeous, calm, enjoyable way to see the sunrise and explore the lagoon. The breakfast was great, and we had loads of time to explore and enjoy :)

    Exceptional tour
    Exceptional tour with Captain Omar. His English was excellent, very knowledgeable about the area and he was very happy to answer all of our questions. The lagoon is beautiful, we stopped at 2 stunning swimming spots. 2 beers and fruit included per person. Make sure you remember sun protection - no sunscreen is allowed in the lagoon and the sun is vicious! Would definitely recommend!

    Great Boat Tour
    This is a must do when you come down to the lake. We reserved an 11 AM tour and it was one of the best things we did. Our boat captain Aladin took time and care of us,showed us all the cenotes. Told us the history of the lake. The captain played some good tunes. We drank some little beers and swam in the lake. we had an excellent time. I would highly recommend our captain Aladin.

    Amazing sunrise paddle tour
    My wife and I had an amazing sunrise paddle with Sergio! We kayaked out to Bird Island, and had coffee and fruit. The water was warm and beautiful and the birds were buzzing with energy. Then we paddled to Cenote Negro and swam and enjoyed the fish and dove spot. Lastly we paddled to the lazy River and the enjoyed Cenote Esmeralda. Sergio was a relaxed, friendly, attentive and amazing guide. We usually don’t like tours, but we didn’t feel rushed with Sergio and really got to relax and enjoy the lagoon.

We recently took a pontoon tour on La Laguna de Bacalar with Aaron, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience! From the beginning, Aaron made sure we felt comfortable and safe, ensuring all safety precautions were in place, including life vests for everyone. The tour itself was breathtaking. We visited two stunning swim spots, enjoyed the view of a beautiful cenote, and spotted a variety of vibrant birds. The lagoon's colors are just spectacular—like something out of a dream!

Aaron was not only knowledgeable but also incredibly hospitable, providing us with fresh fruit and water at the end of the journey. It was the perfect outing for our family, combining relaxation with adventure. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area; it's a fantastic way to experience the natural beauty of Bacalar. Thank you, Aaron, for such a memorable day!

Incredible views! They let us board with our drinks and food apart from providing water and fruit. Jorge Luis was our guide and he was great, we had a lot of fun with him, music and he explained to us all the history of the lagoon as we visited places. As they say here, super father!!!

We went on tour with my husband, and both of us loved it! Our guide Aaron was telling interesting facts about the lagoon and it's history, and made sure everyone is having a good time on the tour. Our guide was also speaking very good english. Lagoon was very beautiful, on tour you can see well all the colors changeing. Totally recommended!

Terrible service, they made us wait more than 40 minutes for the departure time, they had confirmed departure for us at an hour with water, fruit and beer service. When they arrived, no one knew anything, when they asked they only confirmed that the departure was at a different time, and that the boat “was coming.” This was already coming, it took a total of 42 minutes to get out. Also, it is important to emphasize that the number of people on the pontoon is 11 people, there is no room for more... even if they sell more space. Finally, additional purchased drinks were also offered when purchasing the tour, which were not provided when arriving and leaving the tour. If you are looking for a pontoon tour I recommend Cucos Tours.

Hola Abel Agradecemos tu comentario y lamentamos que tu experiencia no haya sido lo que esperabas.

Tomaremos esta reseña como aprendizaje y nos gustaría darle mayor seguimiento, puede comunicarse al +529837329380 y para darle mayor atención a su comentario.

One of the best tours I have had in my life. I initially booked 3 hours and ended up extending it to almost 7 hours throughout the lagoon.

It was especially good thanks to Eliquio, excellent guide and great talk! My whole family was delighted.

Beautiful boat trip on the lagoon, whose waters change from light turquoise to green and blue in an exciting game of reflections. Tony was a good captain, attentive to the safety and tranquility of the passengers. He gave us extensive explanations in Spanish and English about the biodiversity that lives in the lagoon. He showed us the formations of "estromatolitos" that colonize the stones, the cenote that formed inside the lagoon and we took two unforgettable baths in the clear part of the waters. At the time of the ascent we took advantage of the fruit snacks prepared by him.

We had Tony as our boat master, he spoke amazing English and gave an interesting commentary all the way through the 2 hr boat tour, with opportunities to swim twice, once in the CenoteAzul - we had freshly prepared fruit and water on the trip, and felt very well looked after. Included in the trip was an hour kayak, the boat was extremely comfortable and we had a great time. Thank you Tony!

Angel was excellent in his explanation about the different cenotes and the different areas to visit. It was one of the best experiences in the area. I highly recommend it and above all for the love and care that continues to be encouraged by taking care of the use of the
Blocker to avoid damaging nature. We will definitely return :)

My husband and I took the morning 10am tour with guide Paola and captain Jose. The pontoon boat was nearly new and there were only 3 guests; us and a woman from Holland. Paola spoke excellent English and told us all about the lagoon and how it's fed by fresh water cenotes. They took us to several cenotes, easily identifiable by the drastic change in water color; from light aqua to deep, dark blue. We stopped twice, with plenty of time to swim and wander through the clear fresh water. The tour was very relaxing, comfortable and informative. Our last stop was to see the stromolites; the oldest living creatures on earth! We highly recommend Laguna Adventure Bacalar tours!
