Review of: Whale Shark Group Adventure from Isla Holbox
Increible! Gracias Willi y Christian por la mejor experiencia! Super recomendable :D PS el mejor ceviche lo encontraran en su lancha ;) A dream come true! The team is professional, safety is a priority always and we were lucky to see more whale sharks than usual plus dolphins, huge rays, and many beautiful birds. Thank you for a safe and fun experience despite COVID-19 and for taking the necessary prevention measures.…

The boat ride is very long 2 hours each way and it's bumpy (very bumpy) we took Dramamine but our bodies were so sore the next day we could barely walk. We went in August 17th and instead of the usual 200 boats it was about 20. I was so happy to see the whale sharks are protected and there is a police boat watching that the people follow rules. Please do not use regular spf since it hams the animal please use biodegradable spf and if possible put it on after you swim with the whale shark. We got to see this animal in a bottling position and that was amazing and we'll never forget it. I highly recommend this. Joe and Yvonne Chicago …

Review of: Whale Shark Group Adventure from Isla Holbox
My trip with VIP Holbox Experience to go swim with the shark whales was absolutely wonderful. Willy, and his brother who captains the boat are Holbox natives and know everything about the island, its surroundings and amazing ecosystem. We were greated with a delicious breakfast on the beach at Club Mandarina before hopping on the boat.. ps: everybody wore masks, we were required to wear masks and were always greater with hand sanitizer and a big hidden smile:) We had to ride a long way to reach the spot where the shark whale were as they had moved away from the island. They however made everything possible to make the trip comfortable and check on guests. The swim with those colosal creatures was well worth it! What an experience! We then stopped at a spot to go snorkeling with tons of different fishes to follow and enjoy. There we were served delicious fresh ceviche that they prepared while we were swimming. We finally ended our tour in one of the most beautiful spot I had ever been: Santa Paula will remain on my mind forever! Such a beautiful lagoon, a wonder of nature, a magical place! Thank you VIP Holbox Experience!…

Review of: Whale Shark Group Adventure from Isla Holbox
This tour was so much fun. We had a great time. We saw 30 plus whale sharks. We also went snorkeling at a second location that was amazing too. And then we walked around a deserted area with tons of pelicans and had seriously the best ceviche I've ever had. Christian was our captain and he was a blast. Gustav was our guide and we enjoyed him so much as well. Overall - an absolutely amazing experience.…
