Swimming with sea turtles with the Award Winner 2023 & 2024

Guide left us behind. We were on our own to find turtles. Luckily they were plentiful off the coast. Just stick with the cruise ship excursions.

Pickup times can be awkward especially if you are first and have to make 7 more stops. Best to see where you are on the pickup schedule.

Very disappointed. Traveled with my family. Not sure why they even offer tickets for children because they certainly did not want them there. Chaotic pickup at the port, due in part to a gate closing but also due to the lack of communication from the staff about the alternative pick up site. Once at the beach, there were not enough life vest/pool noodles/ goggles for everyone. Very disorganized—I assumed they knew how many guests had purchased the tour and would have brought the appropriate number of equipment. We brought our child’s floatie, and thank goodness we did. The snorkel vests that 2 of us received did not stay inflated so we stayed close to shore, did not see any turtles. Neither guide offered any assistance or even said anything about us not being able to participate. Patrick never acknowledged us. We didn’t see any turtles or flamingos. During travel time, Eddie went into a rant narrative and started using words like “f***” and bulls***”. Not very professional. Eddie also asked repeatedly rude things about our child with autism. He asked things like that’s wrong with her” and “what happened to her?” At the end of the tour, Patrick was upset about “missing googles”. He asked me to check my beach bag while he stood there. We felt like he thought we had stolen them. Apparently Patrick rents the equipment—doesn’t own them-which is confusing since he operates his own company. The whole trip was a disaster and waste of money and time.
