We had an excellent time! We found it to be the most unique snorkeling trip we have ever been on. Victor, our guide was so knowledgeable and clearly passionate about the ecosystem. The bioluminescense is very beautiful and feels like magic, but if you're looking for photo opportunities this will not be the trip for you. The bioluminescent plankton are so tiny, visible to the eye, but not a camera lens. Trust that this is an experience to disconnect and be present, leave your phone on the boat and just enjoy the experience. We thought that the price was very fair for our experience. Swimming in the Los Arcos cave systems without the crowds was perfect for us. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip and will tell anyone coming to PV to check out this very cool experience!
A truly wonderful experience, but it is important not to be afraid to swim at night to the cave to maximize the experience; it is completely safe, and the guides, being marine biologists, provide an added benefit
Very fun and amazing, something new and perfect people to show us around.
It is not the best place in the world to see the effect but it is worth it.
The bioluminescence was very disappointing. It is not anything like the pictures they use for advertising. The guide and crew were good, the boat ride was nice, but the bioluminescence was less than aw inspiring.
Alex/Alejandro and Luis where amazing. Very helpful and knowledgeable. My family had a blast on this tour. One of my favorite parts was getting the chance to swim in the cave and see the bioluminescence underwater. Definitely a must do.
This experience delivered an incredible experience as advertised. Magical lights in the water, swimming in the cave, great guides.
Very cool experience! Alex was very knowledgable and the tour group was small so it feels like good value. If you are brave enough, there is a snorkeling component so make sure you are equipped accordingly.
A wonderful experience. My guide was knowledgeable and well-prepared. The tour exceeded my expectations and was one of the highlights of my overall trip.
A very unique experience. Really cool to see the bioluminescence and we got to swim at night, the water was beautiful. Alex is a great tour guide and he really knows his stuff.
