Excellent snorkelling tour guides - We had a wonderful experience snorkelling with Christian, Ash, Kiron, and Tyler - they were extremely knowledgeable, courteous, and made sure that we had an excellent time! They made extra efforts to point out all the beautiful fish and helped make sure we were able to enjoy every aspect of the trip!

10/10 Location and Guides - We were so happy with our decision to book with the Get to know Belize group! We were a large group of 11, and had the boat to ourselves along with our incredible guides. We immediately felt at ease and in good hands. There were a couple nervous beginners among us (myself included) but our worries were short lived! We had 3 guides in the water with us, pointing out hidden creatures and teaching us about all the species we were seeing. And our wonderful captain was never far away with the boat. The loving reef was incredible to see, and these guys definitely knew the best spots to check out. Would absolutely recommend. Until next time!

Excellent tour - It was excellent. Our two guides were very experienced. They did everything for us to feel safe. They did a short training for those who never snorkeled before. One of the guides was in the water with us to show and tell about undersea world. And this was the world’s biggest living coral reef. Only in Belize.

A wonderful day on the water with two excellent local guides - Very informative guides, knowledgeable of the area and friendly and personable. They took us to two snorkeling spots, and had a lot to share about the area.

Pick these guys- Excellent Service, Wonderful Day Out - Our 2 families (4 Adults, 5 kids ages 4-8) had an AWESOME time with Medz, Jeff and Theo from the “Get to Know Belize” Family. We went on the snorkeling full day trip and had a blast- despite some rain and a little wind, the guys made sure to pick the best spots for the conditions, keeping the kids comfortable and still finding the best snorkeling in the area. For lunch at Bread and butter Caye, the fellas cooked up a delicious meal that the kids and adults thoroughly enjoyed. Adults and little kids all had a great time on this day trip- the adults were very impressed by how attentive and caring the guys were with everyone- especially with the children. We felt safe the whole time and saw some great reef and marine life. Highly recommend- especially if you’re looking for a great, easy day of snorkeling and lunch on the cayes.

Awesome experience - Captain Medz and Jeff were amazing host for my family and I. Great experience of a lifetime. I we have snorkeled before but this time was our most memorable experience. They are accommodating to my kids (6,13,16) and wife. You should try it.

Full Day Snorkeling with Medz and Jeffrey - My family of four, including two older teenage daughters, had an amazing full day snorkeling tour with Medz and Jeffrey. We stopped at three snorkeling spots on the reef, which were all very active and vibrant. Jeffrey accompanied us in the water and pointed out marine life to us. We were able to see nurse sharks, breathtaking spotted eagle rays, barracuda, beautiful fish and coral. Then we stopped at Bread and Butter Caye for the absolute best and freshest lunch ever: snapper ceviche, grilled lobster and barracuda- all speared by Medz that afternoon. I truly wish I could have that for lunch every day! Medz and Jeffrey are friendly, knowledgeable and it’s obvious that they truly love what they do! I would absolutely recommend taking the snorkeling tour with this enthusiastic team.

Belize Snorkel Adventure! - Amazing morning on the barrier reef ! Just the second time snorkeling and Jeffrey took the time allowing me to float and get comfortable on the shore of the south water caye so going out i felt so relaxed! Saw eagle rays and nurse shark and lots of fish and coral! It was a relaxing boat ride, always felt safe, and he knew all the fish and coral! Love Get to Know Belize Travel they treat you like you are part of their family!

A little expensive for the experience - This Operator operates many other tours out of Hopkins. The trip was fun, however, we had a relatively choppy water day. I wish the captain would slow down, we got bounced around a lot. The adults ended up with some bruises and we were really scared for our young kids. The snorkel spots were just OK, compared to another tour we did two days later out of San Pedro. There was also a lot of time where we are supposed to be hanging out on the beach. But there wasn’t much to do, would’ve been better if we just kept swimming.
