Worth every penny! Cannot recommend enough - I cannot express how amazing this tour is! It is well worth the money. We got Eduardo as a tour guide and from the moment we met him we felt safe and welcomed, and he speaks English! We toured the cocoa factory, the mescal factory and then went to the turtle release. After the turtle release we went to the farm where we got onto horses and toured through the farm lands and a couple rivers. We had Angel with us and he was an awesome addition to our day! These horses were taking care of and healthy. We reached a spot where we got into a boat and the horses swam across. We had a snack and some beverages at this cute hut. We then rode back and watched the beautiful sunset (pictures don’t do any justice!) where we then went to the bioluminescence. I can’t stress this enough, this was probably one of the coolest experiences, highly highly recommend!! This is most definitely a full day tour but was WORTH it completely. Thanks so much Eduardo (and Angel) for a great fun filled day! Miss you friend! Chefe y Papito

The greatest adventure ever! - This was my boyfriend and I’s first time in Mexico. His parents are from Oaxaca and so it was a very special trip for the both of us. Our tour guide was simply the BEST. He was so kind and excited to show us what all was planned. He loved to answer questions and I learned so much about the area in addition to having a total blast. I HIGHLY recommend Lamby Tours and will be back very soon for another adventure!!

Anniversary trip to Hualtuco - My wife and I traveled to Mexico for the first time for our anniversary. Being from another country we were hesitant at first about guided tour. But Edgar with Lamby tour Hualtuco was absolutely outstanding. He was very nice, personable, and polite, spoke great English (For non Spanish speakers that’s a huge plus), and he made it his business to make sure we had the best experience possible. He showed us the best parts of Oaxaca. My wife and I highly recommend Edgar and will be specifically asking for his services again when we return!!

A fun filled amazing day - We did this tour but also included the turtle release. The whole day which lasted 12 hours was fantastic. Edgar Escobar was our guide. He was so pleasant, knowledgeable, funny and was fully bilingual. There wasn't a time he wasn't looking out for us and ensuring we had the best time possible. Traveling as 2 ladies on our own, this was very reassuring. We are looking forward to booking through Lambay again and definitely want Edgar to be our guide. The turtle release was a beautiful experience, watching those tiny little babies work so hard to get to the ocean and start their great adventure. The horseback riding was relaxed and the scenery breathtaking. The bioluminescence boating is really something to see. The drive from Huatulcol to these activities is quite long and part of the road is very winding. Those with queasy stomachs make sure to take the appropriate precautions.

3 tours in 1 day! - This was by far the best guided tour I have experienced since coming to Hualtuco for 3 years. We did turtle releasing, horseback riding on the beach and a swim in The bioluminescence lagoon. 12 hours went by fast and I left with a great respect and knowledge of the area. Our guide Edgar Escobar spoke perfect English which was amazing for me personally as my Spanish is very little, The knowledge and information he provided about the area, the tour, the people and food is exceptional, From pick up to delivery back to the hotel Edgar was with us the whole time, he participated in all events and did not leave us. I will definitely be booking more with this company and especially with Edgar. BEST BIRTHDAY DAY EVER! Mucho gracias

Great Experience!!! - Guide (forgot his name) from Lamby Tours was accommodating & professional. - Turtle Release was exciting (helping hatchlings get to the ocean) & terrifying (fending off hordes Seagulls so hatchings can make it to the water- released 21 & 4 did not make it). - Rode horses thru a joint coop farms thru 3 river. One river had gators so riders were boated across & horse swam across. Rode horses on a vast beach & had lunch there. Lovely! - Swam in Bioluminescence waters in the dark. Fun & COOL!
