Unser Guide, Arnulfo, war sehr interessiert, uns viel über die Kultur zu erzählen. Er war sehr rücksichtsvoll gegenüber uns und hat sich oft nach unserem Wohlbefinden erkundigt, weil es sehr heiß war. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und mussten uns um nichts weiteres kümmern. Arnulfo war sehr fachkompetent und zu jedem Zeitpunkt ansprechbar. In Akumal wurden wir auch sehr umfassend betreut. Vielen Dank für alles!

Private tour of Tulum was great, we got there as it opened and avoided all the crowds. Swimming with turtles was private and amazing! We saw lots of turtles and our guide was great with communication and helping us spot the turtles and keep them safe.

Privetour was goed georganiseerd. Gids heel vriendelijk, had ook veel kennis van Tulum en spullen mee zodat je goed kunt begrijpen hoe de Maya priesters te werk gingen. Het zwemmen met schildpadden is heel erg toeristisch, we zagen 3 schildpadden met tig andere toeristen. Dat was wel minder magisch als verwacht. Maar de gids was echt super!
