Best way to see sea turtles in Cancun!

Elliot_B, Aug 2025
Great trip! The tour was more around the ocean than the lagoon, but we got to see plenty of marine life. The sea turtles were the highlight, and well worth doing just to see those in their natural habitat.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Dear Elliot_B, Thank you for sharing your experience! We're glad the tour gave you a chance to witness such incredible marine life, especially the sea turtles — a true highlight. While the route leaned more toward the ocean, it’s great to know it still delivered unforgettable moments. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you again soon! Best regards, Ramos Amigo Tours Quality Department

This was such a cool experience

hafeeza_s, Jul 2025
This was such a cool experience… but we didn’t see much when we were out in the water just a few turtles. What made it cool? Riding in a glass boat in the ocean! It was beautiful. What we do it again? Probably not. This one is a one and done, however, I would recommend this excursion because it isn’t something that everyone is doing in Mexico. I felt like I was creating special memories with my son that nobody else could compare to and that made this experience so unique and memorable. If we were driven to an area that had more sea life I would have given this 5 stars. The tour guide and the captain are great.

We had fun.

Not the greatest

Jasbir_L, Oct 2024
It was quite a short trip and not really something I expected but the tour guide did speak to us in English which was good as the rest of the participants spoke in Spanish. It was something different

10/10 would recommend

Elizabeth_L, Sep 2024
The tour was great and informative! We saw some marine life, and took amazing pics. It was my son’s 3rd Birthday, and the tour guide had everyone sing “Happy Birthday” to him! Chasing the sea turtles was fun! 10/10 would recommend.

Quick memorable trip

Kim_A, Jul 2024
I was skeptical about booking this short boat ride but it was well worth it. We saw, coral, tropical fish, a couple of turtles, and had some great family pictures taken. Nice way to spend the morning before flying home.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

Dear Kim_A, We’re delighted to hear that your boat ride exceeded your expectations! It sounds like you had a fantastic time exploring the marine life and capturing special family moments. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Warm greetings from the entire quality team at Amigo Tours, Chelsea

Best Glass Boat Tour

Andrew_R, Jul 2024
Check-in was seamless, parking is nearby, and the boat was fully acrylic with a pristine view. (If you've done a glass-bottom, this is much better!) Guide was fluent in English and Spanish and helped take some amazing photos. We saw several types of fish and three sea turtles, and, allegedly, my spouse saw a shark. I recommend this tour for families looking for a easy fun way to get away from the resort for a few hours.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

Dear Andrew_R, Thank you for sharing your experience! We're delighted you enjoyed the seamless check-in. Ideal for families seeking a fun getaway from the resort! Warm greetings from the entire quality team at Amigo Tours. Chelsea

Alberto was the best!

Annie_M, Jun 2024
Alberto and our boat driver were the best! They gave so much detailed information on the sea and wildlife. He also took the time to get to know us, our names and made sure we had enough beverages for the ride. I would have done this tour twice if I could and will 100% be booking with them again when I return in the future

Response from Host, Jun 2024

Dear Annie_M, We're thrilled to hear that Alberto and our boat driver made your tour unforgettable with their attention to detail and personal touch. We can't wait to welcome you back for another amazing experience! Kind regards from the entire quality team at Amigo Tours. Chelsea

I loved seeing the sea creatures in the sea though the bottom of the boat, good music and vibes and you get a complimentary beer or water

Estimado IvajloDanielov_K Muchas gracias por compartir su opinión, todo nuestro equipo está encantado de saber lo mucho que disfrutó de la experiencia con nuestros guías. Esperamos tener la oportunidad de volver a verle. Le enviamos un cordial saludo de parte de Amigo Tours. -Alma

Muito bom

Cleiderson_V, Sep 2024
O passeio é excelente, os pontos que eles param você vê peixes, tartarugas, corais. Mas uma RECOMENDAÇÃO que eu gostaria de ter antes do passeio, é que tirem suas próprias fotos!! Eles não avisam e agem de má fé, se você deixar apenas as fotos deles, no final o valor mínimo para eles enviarem são 70USD, podendo ser bem mais caro dependendo do grupo, é muita grana por algumas fotos.

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Dear Cleiderson_V, Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour and the beautiful marine life. We appreciate your recommendation regarding photography, but it is an optional service that you can use if you wish. We hope to seeing you on your next tour! Kind regards fron the quality team at Amigo Tours. Renata
