Great Experience - Great experience, very fun. Our expert guides recommended against clear kayaks due to strong winds and choppy seas. Instead paddled to a small “out-dock” and snorkeled in crystal clear water. Amazing tropical sea life everywhere. Great workout as well. Our guides, Arvin and Darwin fun, personable and accommodating. Will do this again.

Great Kayak trip - This was a really lovely kayak trip. Just the right length - couple of hours - strenuous enough but not a marathon and following the wind and current along the coast. Really well organised and guided - the mangrove lagoon was really interesting. Thoroughly recommended and Mangel Halto is a lovely location worlds apart from the high rise hotel areas

Clear bottom Kayak Trip - This was a beautiful paddle over the amazing colored clear waters of the Caribbean Sea. We paddled out to a pier and got out to get some awesome pictures. It was a little rough coming back but our wonderful guide Mick helped us paddle back with his kayak hooked to ours! He was so kind and very knowledgeable!! He kept our phones safe in a water proof bag and took many pictures of us on the kayaks. We could not see fish through the clear kayak bottom but my husband did spot a few little ones in the Spanish Lagoon. It was still a lovely time! Both guides were helpful - Thank You Mick and Aiden.

Sunset tour - Had a great time kayaking around some historical areas in Mangel Halto. Our guides were friendly and funny and made the trip extremely entertaining for us. Definitely a workout and well worth it. Saw some beautiful sea life and coral while kayaking through some really gorgeous views. Even caught the start of the sunset.

There is not a huge... - There is not a huge mangrove forest, it is a simple kayak tour with snorkelimg at a reef. The glass bottom is not that clear anymore, very scrached. We tried to contact to the tour operator, but has never asnwered. However the tour guide, Mick, was really nice, told a lot about the area, and tried to do his best. I

Poor communication and misadvertised - You don’t kayak through the mangroves. You go out to sea a little bit and kayak BY them. Our guides also did a poor job given the rough conditions. Our kayak took on some water (my fault, we weren’t faced properly into the waves) and then continues to take on water as we approached shore. The guides didn’t help and I ended up jumping out of the kayak once it was shallow to prevent it from sinking. The guides also didn’t communicate that the meeting spot was down the road from where it actually started.

Horrible experience! - I had a terrible experience! I booked my tour over a month in advance only to arrive and be told that they were over booked and moved my tour from 9am to 3pm. Really?!? They should have just canceled and refunded my money. To ad insult to injury we spent $72 in taxi fees and wasted our time!! The tour guide said he texted me, but I never received the text. He said he called. No missed call on my phone. He didn’t even bother to leave a message. Then he said he messaged me in the app. Well, if I did not respond, I did not get the message. Not to mention, he messaged me at 10::31pm. The night before. This is unacceptable. To date I have not received a refund. I need to be compensated for 72 dollars I spent round trip on the taxi and the $140 dollars I paid for our tour.
