O passeio foi um pouco cansativo, chegamos em uma plataforma no meio da mar em umas 20 pessoas, enquanto isso podíamos fazer snorkel, tinham apenas 3 scooters subaquáticas e enquanto estavamos esperando a nossa vez, chegou mais um grupo de umas 15 pessoas. Então até ser a nossa vez, aguardar todo grupo fazer a scooter, foi beem demorado. É uma experiência diferente, da para ver alguns peixinhos. No geral foi legal

The tour was a bit tiring; we arrived at a platform in the middle of the sea with about 20 people. While we were waiting to snorkel, there were only 3 underwater scooters, and while we were waiting our turn, another group of about 15 people arrived. So, waiting for the whole group to get on the scooters was quite a long wait. It's a different experience; you can see some small fish. Overall, it was nice.

En una lancha vas a una plataforma, un poco de snorkel y luego las motos. El tiempo de las motos es ridículo y súmale que no hay oxigeno dentro de la escafandra, la sensación de ahogo y claustrofobia es alto. Una vez todo el mundo ha acabado vas en otro barco a ver delfines, que no hay, vistas un estanque donde están cerrados los delfines y les tiran comida para que salten. Es muy cruel. Cuando acaben la excursión intentan vender fotos y souvenirs. Vigilad el xofer Alex es un estafador

You take a speedboat to a platform, do some snorkeling, and then go jet skiing. The jet ski time is ridiculously short, and on top of that, there's no oxygen inside the snorkel, so the feeling of suffocation and claustrophobia is intense. Once everyone has finished, you go on another boat to see dolphins, but there aren't any. You see a tank where the dolphins are kept in a cage, and they throw food to them to make them jump out. It's very cruel. When the excursion is over, they try to sell photos and souvenirs. Watch out for the driver, Alex; he's a con artist.

Supposed to be picked up at 12 but finally got picked up at 1. waited 1/2 hour before boarding the boat, no drinks or snacks. after getting on the platform waited another 1/2 hour before getting onthe machines. Fun for 3 minutes while we drove around but for the rest of 7 minues they pulled us. Saw a few fish. got back on the platform waited another 1/2 hour and got on a glass bottom boat. absolutely nothing to see. no El nino snorkeling waited 1/2 hour for transfer back. totally wasted day

En una actividad muy bonita pero me parece que es importante que se mencione a los participantes los síntomas que tendrás estando bajo el mar ya que puedes sufrir crisis nerviosa y no disfrutar el momento. Adicional me parece que falta organización de parte de las personas que realizan la actividad pues separan los grupos de personas que vienen juntas y estando dentro del mar tratan de juntarlos nuevamente, haciendo que tomen fotos rápido y que no salen bien.

It's a very nice activity, but I think it's important to inform participants about the symptoms they might experience underwater, as they could suffer a panic attack and not enjoy the experience. Additionally, I think the organizers lack organization, as they separate groups of people who arrive together and then try to reunite them once they're in the water, resulting in rushed and unreliable photos.

Tedan agua y Coca-Cola omo aperitivo, nada más la verdad es que si tienes claustrofobia o eres aprensivo por wl tema de oxígeno no es tu actividad Lo demás una buena experiencia, te hacen foros que es mejor pagar con pesos porque xon la tarjeta te hacen un recargo del %18. Recuerda las propinas no están incluidas

They give you water and Coca-Cola as an appetizer, nothing else. The truth is that if you have claustrophobia or are apprehensive about the oxygen issue, this is not the activity for you. Otherwise, it's a good experience. They offer tours that are better to pay in pesos because with the card they charge you 18%. Remember, tips are not included.

La experiencia con el scooter submarino, my bonita ,y recomendable, el fotógrafo muy bien. Pero el snorkel dejó mucho que desear porque solo te tiras de la plataforma y miras con las gafas, pensamos que también habría un guía que te dirigía y enseñaba paisaje submarino mientras hacías snorkel, pero NO fue así. Las fotografías excesivamente caras, y no tienes posibilidad de comprar una sola foto, tiene que ser toda la sesión fotográfica y por ello cobran tanto.

The underwater scooter experience was very nice and highly recommended. The photographer was very good. However, the snorkeling experience left a lot to be desired because you just jump off the platform and look through your goggles. We thought there would also be a guide to guide you and show you the underwater scenery while you snorkeled, but that wasn't the case. The photos were excessively expensive, and you can't even buy a single photo; it has to be the entire photo session, which is why they charge so much.

Gostei das atividade. Você pode fazer snorquel enquanto espera a vez de ir. O percurso da moto é bem curto, e o tempo embaixo da água também, a gente não vai tão longe e a atração é ver os peixinhos que se aproximam quando o mergulhador joga ração e visualizar os corais. Depois dessa atividade, eles te colocam numa embarcação com solo de vidro e também fazem um pequeno trajeto que é possível ver apenas corais porque é uma distância rasa do solo do mar com a embarcação. Valeu a pena pelas fotos

Excursión recomendada por la belleza del paisaje de debajo del mar y por lo raro e inusual de la especie de scooter submarina, que te llevan ( como montando en moto )por debajo del mar, sin ningún tipo de tubo,para ver los peces y hasta una raya que ví. El pero, como casi siempre en estas excursiones, es tener mucha paciencia en el traslado, tanto a la ida como a la vuelta, no tienen prisa, no van con hora. Translate this opinion into English.

A recommended excursion for the beauty of the underwater landscape and for the rarity and unusual nature of the underwater scooter, which takes you (like riding a motorbike) under the sea, without any kind of tube, to see the fish and even a stingray that I saw. The downside, as almost always on these excursions, is to be very patient during the trip, both on the way there and on the way back, they are not in a hurry, they do not have a time limit.

La experiencia muy bn. Nos esperábamos otra cosa respecto a las motos. Es un recorrido d ida y vuelta corto La moto t van empujando los buzos. X otra parte el snorkel es genial. Es mucho mejor esta part. Es x eso q le pongo 3 estrellas. el personal d la excursión es muy agradable. Lo peor q veo es la parada para ver a los delfines que están en CAUTIVERIO. El aperitivo inexistente En la descripción pone q se hace scooter en un sitio y luego se va a El Niño. En nuestro caso fue a la vez

Very good experience. We expected something else regarding the motorcycles. It is a short round trip. The motorcycle is pushed by the divers. On the other hand, the snorkel is great. This part is much better. That's why I gave it 3 stars. The excursion staff is very nice. The worst thing I see is the stop to see the dolphins that are in CAPTIVITY. The non-existent aperitif In the description it says that you ride a scooter in one place and then go to El Niño. In our case it was at the same time

The activity was fun-filled from beginning to end. When Christopher started playing the music at the very start to walk towards the boat that was the first indicator that the vibe was going to be electric. The experience and expertise of everyone was vividly obvious. There was not one moment of anxiety and the music throughout the experience kept the atmosphere upbeat and lively. I would encourage everyone to participate in this unique experience and take home the pictures to prove it.

Espectacular. Las scooter una experiencia única y muy buena y mientras que el resto del grupo lo hace pues puedes hacer snorkel. Había 4 motos y pudimos hacerlo en familia y muchos peces. Los chicos genial, te buscan hasta erizos para que los cojas. La recomiendo. No entiendo los comentarios negativos porque no esperas sin hacer nada, hicimos más de una hora de snorkel mientras Translate this opinion into English.

Spectacular. The scooters are a unique and very good experience and while the rest of the group does it, you can snorkel. There were 4 motorcycles and we were able to do it as a family and lots of fish. The guys are great, they even look for hedgehogs for you to catch. I recommend it. I do not understand the negative comments because you do not wait without doing anything, we did more than an hour of snorkeling while Opinion translated. Show original.

Bueno, es una actividad diferente, no es la bomba pero tampoco es de las actividades más caras, echas un ratillo haciendo snorkel. En la moto estás pocos minutos, lo que es dar la vuelta a la plataforma y peces se ven sólo en el lado en el que les han estado echando pan. Translate this opinion into English.

Well, it's a different activity, it's not the bomb but it's not one of the most expensive activities either, you spend a little time snorkeling. You are on the motorcycle for a few minutes, which is to go around the platform and fish can only be seen on the side where they have been adding bread. Opinion translated. Show original.

Nos ha gustado la actividad. La parte del paseo cortita, pero el snorkel intermedio ha sido muy agradable. No había corales ni gran vegetación pero sí muchos peces y una cueva pequeña que ves desde arriba. A la vuelta hemos visto un cercado marino con delfines. Translate this opinion into English.

We liked the activity. The part of the walk is short, but the intermediate snorkel has been very pleasant.

Recogida perfecta y en hora. La actividad es entretenida y muy divertida para los niños. No es un gran paseo, pero es una experiencia diferente. El personal es agradable, aunque podrían dar un poco más de indicaciones, como colocar los pies entre otras cosas. En todo momento te acompaña un buzo y maneja el la moto. Las fotos son más asequibles que en otras actividades, pero tampoco son una maravilla. Si llevas una cámara sumergible seguro que las sacas mejores.. Translate this opinion into English.

Perfect pick up and on time. The activity is entertaining and very fun for children. It's not a great walk, but it's a different experience. The staff is nice, although they could give a little more instructions, how to place your feet among other things. A diver accompanies you at all times and drives the motorcycle. The photos are more affordable than in other activities, but they are not wonderful either. If you take a submersible camera you will surely get them better.. Opinion translated. Show original.

La actividad estuvo muy bien, la empresa fue muy puntual. El paseo bajo el agua es de unos 10 minutos, pero con eso alcanza, ya que tampoco es que hay mucho para ver, pero la experiencia es linda. Mi sobrino de 9 años se sintió mal en medio del paseo, y enseguida lo sacaron del agua y lo llevaron al barco, están muy atentos. Por un grupo de 4 nos cobraron las fotos u$s 50, es un dato que yo no sabía y creo que es importante para quien quiera comprarlas. Solo había dos motos, por la corriente. Translate this opinion into English.

The activity was very good, the company was very punctual. The walk underwater is about 10 minutes, but that's enough, since there isn't much to see, but the experience is nice. My 9-year-old nephew felt bad in the middle of the ride, and they immediately took him out of the water and took him to the boat, they are very attentive. For a group of 4 they charged us $50 for the photos, it is a fact that I did not know and I think it is important for whoever wants to buy them. There were only two motorcycles, because of the current. Opinion translated. Show original.
