Thanks for the experience - Our 3 island tour with Xtreme Holbox Tour was an exceptional experience. From the start, customer support was highlighted, with quick answers to our questions and an easy Reservation process. During the tour, we loved how well the Guide knew the local history and ecosystems, making us feel connected to the places we visited. Each stop was more impressive than the last, from bird watching on Bird Island to relaxing rest on Passion Island. We especially appreciate the attention to sustainability and conservation, which made us feel that we were supporting responsible tourism. Definitely an experience we would repeat.

The best couple - This tour was a real pleasure thanks to the Xtreme Holbox Tour team. Communication before the tour was clear and punctual, which helped us prepare and know exactly what to expect. During the tour, the Guide was always attentive to our needs, offering drinks and snacks and making sure everyone was comfortable. I was particularly impressed with how the questions were handled and the flexibility to tailor the tour to the interests of the group. It was a truly personalized and unique experience.

Unmissable - A boat tour to Yalahau (provide $100MXN if you want to swim in the cenote) where we stayed for about an hour: there are bathrooms, changing rooms, hammocks, a bar and everything very adapted to have a good time in the mangrove. A passion island stop for bathing and bird watching. We ended up in mosquito tip where we observed many flamingos from a white sand bench. We even saw dolphins.
We saw it almost in the rain and with clouds but it was a great time despite the weather.

Lovely excursion - Very good and not very long excursion that you can do several activities. From bathing in a cenote like seeing flamingos or seeing pufferfish and bathing in calm and crystal clear waters.

Excellent organization and service! - Jonathan and Cristian are very knowledgeable, they are super organized and the experience with them is great because while the other tours arrived together they made sure that we were interspersed so that we could be practically alone in the activities and enjoy fewer people on each island. Super good service and we can't wait to return and take advantage of another tour with them. Mega recommended!

Organized fun in nature - The guide dropped off a wetsuit at my hotel the day before our trip. The wetsuit was clean and dry. His team picked
up all participants in a 4 x 4 just before 4am (pick-up time depends on moon cycle). The seventeen early birds in our group stopped at the gear site to view the “moon set”, got the rest our gear (snorkel, mask, water shoes), and walked out to the lagoon. Our guide used his “Luke Skywalker Light Saber” to point out constellations, and then we continued on our way. The walk was flat and maybe half to three quarters of a mile round trip. The bioluminescence was cool and I was glad to have worn the wetsuit. It would have been a bit cold without it and it also helps protect you from mosquitoes (which weren’t bad at all in April). We left gear at the gear site and wore our wetsuits back to our hotels as we rode the 4 by 4s. We were asked to leave the wetsuit at the front office of our hotels. Well organized, clean gear, content presented in both Spanish and English, and safe! Don’t bring anything with you - you don’t need it and will be asked to leave it behind at the gear site. The locals also said this was an excellent tour guide/group!

A beautiful day to enjoy a boat trip. - We enjoyed our outing on the boat. We had 9 people in our group which was a nice size. The first stop was on the mainland and for me the best part. A nice plunge in the cenote with all the tiny fish. Not sure why it is called three islands tour.

Moderate - It was a nice tour, but our guide didn't speak a word of English.. Although this man could not speak English, he also told little in Spanish. We were told by other tourists, who could speak Spanish. He was also not interested, regularly sat on his phone or was more concerned with the captains of other boats. Very unfortunate because this could have been so much more fun and beautiful..
