It was an exciting and wonderful experience. The two young men that took us around were very respectful and responsible. You are able to bring your drinks and food aboard. You will be awestruck by the beauty of your surroundings. The boar itself is well cared for and comfortable. A must do if you are in San Andres. The instructions were clear and communication very fast.

Excellent experience- professional staff
It was a very busy day out on the water and we were so happy we chose a private boat as some of the other boats looked to be packed solid. Our guides made sure to take us to the best places and really stepped up the game to ensure we had a great time.

The team at MarioMow provided the best snorkeling experience of our travels. From the quality of the boat and crew, the personalized service to learning about the island and people of San Andres they have our highest recommendation.

I recently retirned from my trip to San Andres, Colombia. The island is amazing. The best part of the entire trip was our boat excursion with Marmows. A great boat with great captains. Both Mario and Juliana were fantastic. Mario speaks great english, so the ability to communicate was never an issue. They are owner operators so they really go out of their way to make sure you have a fantastic experience. We were able to stop and go as we pleased as this is the luxury of having the boat dedicated to your party. I have had private boat excursions in the past but this by far ranked at the top. Pristine boat, with great captains tkaing you to great spots to soal in all that is San Andres. Don't hesitate, book them now!

Mario & Julianna we excellent hosts and took us to great snorkeling spots. The water is amazing and they are good stewards of their beautiful island. Highly recommend this private boat ride-so nice to be able to spread out on the boat and snorkel as long as we chose at each location!

Mario and his girlfriend were some of the best guides I’ve had through this app. His English is great for anyone concerned about having to know Spanish. It’s an excellent way to experience the island, but definitely bring sun screen and a long sleeve fishing shirt. I had SPF 50 on and still got cooked. I would also recommend a warm weather neck gator/face buff. It was all still a great experience.
Cortney_C, Jan 2024
Mario and Julianna were welcoming and extremely accommodating. They made sure our day was hitch free and delightful. Highly recommend their excursion!
Eddie_D, Dec 2023
All around great experience. I’d do it on my next trip. Pretty much you have a nice boat, cooler fully of ice, captain and mate for a day. Go where you please stay as long as you want and have great service from the mate. We did a land day and a sea day and the sea day was definitely amazing.
ROBERTO_M, Dec 2023
Mario is very friendly and the best english speaker I've met in Colombia. Unfortunately we had to leave a bit early because of bad weather conditions. But I've had a great time and the boat is very nice.
James_E, Nov 2023
Great day on the water with Mario and his mate Branford. Really took us to some perfect snorkeling spots- near reefs and old wrecks. So many fish! Nice lunch on Haines Cay- super rustic and authentic island food. And some killer cocolocos!
Overall a good day. Saw a lot, super friendly and helpful crew. Six hours of fun!
Hugo_G, Oct 2023
Excellent tour! Mario and Juliana were great hosts and the tour was amazing. They took us to the best spots on the island. We had a great time and we will definitely book again when we come back. Great food, snorkeling spots, and suggestions all around San Andres.
Veronica_W, Jun 2023
Mario and Juliana were both so friendly and great. They showed us around the island and gave us great swimming and snorkeling options. Juliana was a sweetheart and kept offering to take photos of us. The boat is well kept, clean, and one of the nicer boats on the island, way better than the pontoons. Would definitely book again and recommend to anyone who is looking for fun, while staying safe!

Verónica! It was a pleasure to serve you and that you enjoyed this beautiful paradise that is San Andres Islands, welcome back. Greetings to Lili
Brice_H, Jan 2023
Mario was great from the moment he greeting us at the pier. We explored the mangroves, and snorkeled at several spots. He helped get our kids comfortable in the very choppy water and found spots at the cays that weren't as crowded as the main areas. He help spot sea life and stop where ever we wanted to jump out and take a swim. He had great recommendations for lunch. We enjoyed it so much that we booked a second trip while we were on the island.
Samira_M, Dec 2025
The best experience in San Andrés! The tour was amazing from start to finish, from communication and pre-coordinations, as well as a willingness to answer all our concerns. Everyone was very friendly, always attentive to every detail. The boat is beautiful and super comfortable. All the people involved were very gentle and made the tour a dream.
