Magical

Many tour agencies sell tickets for this popular attraction. I booked with Tony Tours in Zicatela Beach. Pick up was prompt and efficient. I went on a moonless night and truly we saw thousands of stars. Swimming in the lagoon is fun: great water temperature and soothing. …

Magical experience!

Kiko was the best tour guy we could have asked for. He was very hospitable and took time to get to know each person in our group. Everyone enjoyed his charm and energetic personality. In addition to Kiko being great, the tour itself was magical in a sci-fi way. Swimming in the…

Not at all what we expexted-very odd

Pickup was 6:45. Drove for an hour and 15 to collect everyone else. We weren't even sure we were headed to the right spot because it took so long. The tour said it was in English but the driver and then the captain didn't actually speak English so we had a bit of uncertainty…

Response from jaciel m, Owner at Bioluminescent Lagoon Boat Ride and Swim from Puerto Escondido

Responded Jan. 31, 2020

Hello guys! So sorry for this inconvenience. This was not our team that did the tour. Your guide that was going to take you had an emergency with a sudden Infection of Dengue.*is still sick* We thought you would have recieved a better service. Unfortunately, that was not the case. I deeply apologize for this problem. I did not want to cancel the tour so we requested a different supplier. So sorry If you are still in Puerto please let me know at 954 1112794 and I will try to make up this experience with another. Lo siento.

One of the hightlights of our trip!

We enjoyed our first tour with Kiko (baby sea turtle release) so much that we booked the bioluminescence tour the same day. It turned out to be one of the coolest experiences of the trip! Kiko picked us up around 7pm, and drove us a short way to the lagoon. We boarded a small…
