Once in a lifetime experience - We had such an amazing experience with DC Explorer, Noah (our captain), and Mano (our guide/first mate). The boat trip around Isla Mujeres was a highlight of out trip. Noah and Mano did everything possible to ensure we had the best time ever and an unforgettable experience. We felt completely safe and secure the entire time. They took us to all the best snorkeling spots, educated us on the island, habitat, marine life, and even found a pod of dolphins for us to swim with in the open water (we got a little lucky with this one). I would 100% recommend DC Explorer if your are looking for an experience of a lifetime. Thank you!

Do not book - Not sanitary. Late. The boat broke down. The captain was rude. They didn’t make up for the time we were broken down. Do not spend your money with this tour. Not worth the 6000 mex
