It was an unforgettable experience and everything went perfectly. I honestly have no suggestions to make as the organization of all the steps of the tour and the times were very well planned. We left super happy and I congratulate you on the work you do. My congratulations to Hugo and René who accompanied us throughout the tour. We will surely come back soon to make more excursions and we will choose them again
Beautiful experience

Super recommended. The extra to see the whales on board is worth every peso. I know it's expensive but it's a unique experience. The rest of the excursion was also good, seeing the whales from the beach is very nice tb. Same as the walks. The guides were super friendly and were telling us the story and animals that appeared along the way.
Excellent experience!!!!!

Excellent experience both with the Animal Travel Enterprise and with nature as we lived an incredible sighting where we had the whale glued to the boat offering a show for 15 minutes.It excites to tears.And the gte of the agency are a luxury, prior to the excursion they communicated with us and provided us with all the necessary info. The same thing during the tour we felt careful and very good the information that the guide gave us, giving rise to our questions.
Excellent experience
