Totally worth the private tour. The tour guide was a marine biologist so gave us all the tidbits about the wildlife and sea lions. We were able to get real close to the sea lions and I was able to get face-to-hand with one of them! the ceviche and pasta for the lunch provided was excellent! did not disappoint. Fruit and ham sandwich ingredients were also included with drinks and chips. The guide had seen other ships scouting a whale in the bay and we took off after it and were able to spot a small humpback whale fluke 3 times during the chase. We were taken to snorkel in a reef near the island. they provide wet suits and life vests although you'll come to realize you don't need either as the sea is so salty the density keeps you afloat. overall a great experience.
Holy Spirit Island has to be in your plans!

The walk to Isla Spirito Santo seems to me to be an experience that you cannot miss if you are visiting La Paz as the view and rock formations, as well as the flora and fauna are very impressive. I highly recommend booking with next travel experience. The treatment of the whole team was extremely friendly, and we were made to feel safe and pampered at all times. We swam with sea lions, stopped in a bay to paddle board and the ceviches were excellent.
Excellent experience.

I had the most amazing time with my family. Some people in our group where first time snorkelers, and the guide was so helpful and patient. Both the guide and captain where very knowledgable and gave us important information about the wildlife we encountered and the Island's history. Swimming with the sea lions was incredible! We received photos and videos of our experience after the tour at no extra cost. We also enjoyed the lunch at the beach and paddle boarding. The bay where we stoped in was shallow and perfect for swimming and paddle boarding. We had an amazing time and will recommend this tour to family and friends going to La Paz
Best experience ever
