I recommend this excursion; during my trip, I could only do two outings, and this was one of them, I recommend it.

Everything has been perfect, from the pickup to the arrival. I have nothing bad to say, quite the opposite. The treatment was very good and close, and we were lucky to see three turtles in their habitat. :D
