Fabulous day with Lea!

A great day of private discovery of Sian Ka’an with Léa, fabulous guide who speaks perfect French. Lots of culture on biodiversity, with qualitative explanations and great listening to children! We could see, among others, dolphins, turtles, a manatee, birds... Bravo Léa for this superb day with the family!

Weather dependents

The tour was disappointing. The weather was poor so we missed seeing any aquatic animals. The guide then informed us the conditions were too bad for snorkelling. The meals were cold and the full-day activity was shortened to 3pm instead of 7pm. We’d have appreciated a reschedule or refund given the weather was unsuitable.
