An unforgettable experience and an amazing team!

It was undoubtedly a tour (snorkeling in Akumal with turtles and Cenotes) that exceeded the expectations, which were already high! The experience of diving in Akumal, near turtles and in the most crystal clear waters where I have ever swam, in the Cenotes, was undoubtedly a unique experience! And the team at Ocean Tours is incredible and of exemplary professionalism, from the guide Gonzalo (Gonza), to the photographer Matias and the driver José. We thanked Gonzalo, the best guide I have ever had, always attentive to the safety of the participants and the ecosystems where we were and with an inexhaustible good disposition, which made us laugh a lot throughout the day. He made us feel like a family, as he called us. Good luck for the incredible day you gave us and we will never forget! Thank you Gonzalo!
