5.00It was a wonderful experience. We saw several sharks and manta rays. And obviously, the best part was swimming alongside the whale shark! An unforgettable experience. There were three friends and I, and we fell in love with the tour. Everything was very delicious; before boarding the boat, there were rolls, coffee, water, juice, etc., and the ceviche at the end was delicious. Thank you very much to Blue Caribe and our guide!
Sian Ka'an in search of flora and fauna

5.00It is worth visiting the Sian Ka'an reserve, a biosphere rich in mangroves and a completely Caribbean fauna. We were fortunate to have Maria Grazia as our guide, a very well-prepared and passionate young woman. I highly recommend it :)
Sian Ka'an incredible

5.00As it's not available to select, we did the Sian Ka'an mangrove safari. Mary Grace was our guide and absolutely incredible. Her knowledge and enthusiasm was on another level and the care/love she showed for the environment was amazing! The tour was immense, saw everything we wanted in a natural environment. I'm not going to say what as it's not guaranteed, but I'll add a couple photos of the environment. If you can afford it, just do it. Even if you don't see anything, the environment and sea is unlike anything you will ever see.
Amazing Memories - Great Team.

5.00Ever since booking our holiday to Mexico, my daughter was obsessed with the whale sharks. We booked this trip and weren’t disappointed. Mika was a great guide and Angel was a great boat captain for the whole trip. Picked up at the hotel on time and taken by minibus to the marina where there was tea, coffee and other refreshments. We decided to hire a wetsuit so my kids (who are both very strong swimmers) could dive underwater with the whale sharks - I just stuck with the life jacket. Snorkels and masks were provided to everyone as part of the trip. Once on route it was full speed ahead on the boat which was a great experience in itself! We reached the area the whale sharks had been spotted in no time and were quickly put into pairs to dive in and swim. What an absolutely unforgettable experience! The kids were in awe and my daughter said it surpassed all her expectations! After having a couple of swims each, we headed to Isla Mujeres (at full speed!) for a spot of lunch and a relaxing swim in the turquoise waters of Playa Norte. Lunch was either a shrimp ceviche or a ham and cheese sandwich. Whilst the ceviche looked lovely, we opted for the sandwich as we were feeling a bit seasick. The sandwich was actually really really nice! Cold drinks were provided and we all chose to eat our lunch in the warm turquoise waters. Then it was a short trip back to the mainland to end the trip. Overall 10/10 from us! Definitely recommend the trip from Blue Caribe.
