Safe, professional, lifetime experience with knowledgable and professional staff that still have a lot of fun. - Our guide Mario was very professional while still being super fun. He laid out the rules for us easily and with enough authority that we all took it seriously.
Hector the driver was great and had a positive attitude that was infectious.
Juan was out boat driver who had to be good to negotiate the docks and everything else.
Dante the guide on the body was always smiling and a lot of fun.
The overall experience is one I would recommend to anyone who has a certain level of fitness. It is an unforgettable adventure that was humbling and invigorating. These gelato l gentle giants in the water are a sight to behold. We felt very safe and taken care of the whole time.
Thank you Team for an once in a lifetime adventure.

Best part of my Cabo trip! - Had a fantastic excursion with Mario as intro/instructor, Leo boat driver, and Joe in the water. My group found 2 whale sharks and got to swim with them 3 times without any other boats around. Leo and Joe were experts at safely getting us in front of the whale shark so we could swim to them. Amazing, once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Snorkeling With Whale Sharks - The experience was once in a lifetime. Mario and Hector were very helpful and informative. They were very friendly and welcoming by making the trip more enjoyable from the jokes to the funny noises. Once we arrived at the marina we met our guide for the day, Joe. He was very friendly and gave us the rundown of how the day would workout and before we knew it we were headed out into the ocean and after about 20 minutes of searching for the whale sharks we didn’t have to search again. There was so many whale sharks in our area and seeing them up close and seeing their true size and detail was very exciting. Seeing how these creature's moved around in the water as well as seeing them eat was so unique. I would love to go again and would recommend going if you’re interested.

Amazing Day!!! - Amazing experience!! From the start at 6:15a.m to the end at 4:30p.m - all day was wonderful! We will definitely do it again and always ask for Hector (bus driver) Mario (bus tour host) and especially Joe (our guide on the boat and in the water with the whale sharks) all extremely informative, funny, helpful and patient. All around a once in a lifetime experience! No pictures can do the day any justice.

Experience of a lifetime - Everyone who was involved with our tour was amazing. A special thanks to Ector our driver for getting us all there safe and picking us up at our hotel at 6:15am. Our tour host Mario was great, he was very knowledgeable, friendly and entertaining.
Joe was our guide on the boat, he was very helpful for my wife and one of my kids helping them get closer and at times keep up with the shark. Joe also took amazing photos and videos of our family that we purchased to keep these memories forever.

Whale Shark Experience - This was our first time swimming with Whale Sharks and it was absolutely amazing! Paco was our bus driver and was very good. Mario communicated all of the instructions very throughly, made sure everybody was all safe, and lastly extremely funny. David was our guide for the dive and he was very knowledgeable and we were able to swim with 5 whale sharks!! If you are considering this excursion, I would highly recommend it.

Excellent Adventure! - Mario was an excellent host and guide. He took the time to thoroughly explain all the rules and regulations to keep us and the animal safe. He made sure everyone got to see and swim with the whale shark and got some great photos and videos. We even saw dolphins! Lunch was also very fresh and tasty.
This was a once in a lifetime excursion for me and well worth the cost. I would definately recommend.
