It was an amazing experience! We got to get a tour of a local town first and eat some great food and then spend some time with the turtles at sunset. It was magical and our guide was amazing.

Tomas was an excellent tour guide! It was clear he loved to learn right alongside of us and was tremendously helpful translating. Interacting with the baby turtles and learning about this important work was truly beautiful.

People who actually put the Turtles above their business. It was awesome to see the baby turtles make it safely into the ocean. My daughter enjoyed playing hero and protecting them from birds.

What a Day!!

We were picked up by Tomas and enjoyed a safe and air conditioning ride to all attractions. First stop was a chocolate factory run entirely by an extended family featuring all homemade chocolate products. Second stop was an iguana sanctuary where we saw many green and black iguanas in a natural habitat. And finally, the highlight of our trip - the baby turtle release on a pristine beach at sunset. The naturalist who accompanied us found two more nests and we were able to help release those baby turtles as well. Tomas is very knowledgeable and provided interesting commentary throughout the day. Would definitely recommend Tomas and this excursion!!

This was a great tour! Thomas was very knowledgeable and accommodating. The turtle release was the highlight and very hands on. Our teenagers loved it. Chocolate was delicious too. He also recommended a great taco place for dinner when he dropped us back in Crucecita. Best barbacoa tacos ever!
