“One of the best tours I've been on. Our guide, Memo was so informative and made sure we all had an excellent experience. He was very knowledgeable about the history of the area and Rio Secreto in particular. He pointed out several interesting stalactites and stalagmites we might have overlooked. One person in our group of 10 was especially fearful in deep water and i was so impressed with how Memo was able to calm her fears and keep her safe so she could have an enjoyable experience as well as the experienced swimmers.

The only thing that is annoying is the pictures - $90 dollars (more expensive that the activity itself) And they push you hard to buy, they also don't allow you to bring your phone for 'safety reasons' but really its all a ploy to get you to buy their pictures.”

★★★★★★★★★★3.3 · 5 reviews · 5 hours · from $55

Afterward, spend a little time in the village before your return transfer. The tour lasts about five hours; a US$10 reef fee is extra.

“We were very disappointed. The staff were more interested in selling things to us than in client comfort or ensuring that we had a positive snorkelling experience. We were driven to their office where we were escorted through their store to purchase items. Then we had to sit in a room for 10 minutes before being taken to a hot van where we waited another 10 minutes before departing to the boat. Upon arrival at the Beach Club, we were told that we were allowed to take nothing on board. So our phones, wallets with credit cards and money were left in an unlocked locker. The boat ride was nice.…”

No querían darnos lo del tequila, no querían darnos el transporte, bueno en fin, una experiencia fea por ese asunto, quizá a otra hora la experiencia hubiera sido diferente.…”
