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.

Amazing experience

We booked the Whale Shark Tour with OceanTours via Kalido Travel. Our guide "Pepe Monster" provided an amazing service, we had the chance to swim with Whale Sharks, but as well saw dolphins, mantras, and many tropical fishes. We tour ended at Playa Norte were we had the opportunity to enjoy an amazing Mexican lunch at one of the most beautiful beach of the Caribbean.

Very very good. Would try again.

While we did sea sick the guides were attentive and tried to encourage us all to try to swim. The guides were awesome in getting to the whale sharks and seeing all we could. My advice is to take Dramamine at least one to two days prior as well as day of. Thanks to our guides they were the best!!
