As a groups of ten, Victor and Rodrigo took us on a private morning tour to a secluded beach. We were provided with a full bar, fresh fruit snacks, and lunch consisting of freshly made burritos and tacos. We snorkeled around rock formations in calm, crystal clear waters. Such a beautiful and relaxing experience. 100% recommended. Thanks guys! Pura Vida!
Truly amazing day I can’t see enough good things about this adventure. Food was excellent. Drinks were great and the views were amazing. We’ll definitely do it again when we come back.
What a great, personalized experience. We went with a group of two families, and the other family had never been on a boat. Eddy and Rodrigo were so accommodating and friendly. We made unforgettable memories. They had everything we needed on the boat, including GREAT bar drinks and fresh food prepared by Rodrigo. Simply amazing. Sunset was one of the best we've ever seen. Would definitely recommend booking this private tour!
The food was very good. The crew were very attentive and professional. The boat was well kept. We snorkeled with Eric and he created a great exeprience showing us Turtles, Puffer fish and Eels.
Great time on the water. Captain and first mate were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the weather was not ideal for sailing but that did not stop us from having a great time.
We had an amazing time! Worth it for the sunset views! The food was great - chicken tacos, fruit, etc.
Rodrigo and Eric are amazing! We booked with them due to the amazing reviews and let me tell you the other reviews are spot on. We arrived at the beach, were promptly picked up and taken to the boat. On board we were greeted with drinks (kid drinks as well for our 3 children - 9, 6 & 4) as well as a large plate of refresh fruit. We enjoyed the boat ride to the snorkeling spot where we saw various fish! Our 4 and 6 year old were nervous snorkeling but Eric was so great with them while Rodrigo was cooking up an amazing lunch on the boat. After snorkeling we enjoyed an amazing lunch and spent time on the beach before heading back. The kids enjoyed some fishing as well. Highly recommend especially for families!
We had a great time. The guides were awesome! They were very knowledgeable about the area and waters. They made us a great dinner, and everyone was well fed. I would highly recommend! Thank you for an amazing evening (sunset)!
Wow! This was great. Rodrigo, Eddy, & Simon were a fantastic crew. Chill and attentive. We did later in the day being able to catch the beautiful sunset. 10/10 would recommend. Good was yummy. Fully stocked with everything you need for food or drinks. We had two teenagers and they loved every minute being on the water. They had snorkels and a floating mat with noodles. Be sure to bring towels :) could not be happier with our experience with these guys. Thank you so much!
Captain Rodrigo and Eric were great hosts on the Pegasus. Our family had a wonderful and relaxing afternoon and sunset excursion. We highly recommend to anyone looking for a fun and adventurous day on the ocean.
