- Cabo Private Guide - The tour begins at the headquarters where equipment is fitted, followed by an 8-minute walk to the boat. The guide will provide a briefing on Best Practice behaviors before embarking on a search for large super squadrons of mobula rays! Please note that sightings are not guaranteed, so the tour includes one hour of snorkeling at the reef to observe some of the reef’s wildlife if no rays are found in the open water. When rays are spotted, they swim near the surface but can also dive deeper. Enthusiastic freedivers have the opportunity to dive down to meet them. Participants will be in deep water and life jackets will be available. A certain level of fitness is required as swimming is necessary to keep up with the rays. The captain will position the boat near the rays, but to avoid disturbing them, participants will need to swim a short distance to meet them. Occasionally, the rays approach and swim beneath the boat, allowing for a stationary viewing experience. The tour lasts approximately 3 hours, which is considered optimal, and will return at that time. This tour is best experienced in the morning, with check-in at 7am.

The best part of our trip to Cabo! - This was theee best part of our trip to Cabo hands down! The tour guide (Leo) was so awesome! Knowledgeable and passionate about the ocean and all the things we could find. We found the rays and even went to another location to see more reefs and ocean life. 11 out of 10 recommend. So grateful for the amazing experience

So many fish - Go into this knowing that the snorkeling will be great but you may not see what you are expecting.
Equipment was good, using wet suit is a good idea, maybe bring a go pro with you.
Our guide, David, was terrific and our experience was great.

Amazing Experience Snorkeling with Mobula Rays! - My wife and I had a 5-star experience with Cabo Private Guide last weekend. We wanted to see the Mobula Ray migration during our visit to Cabo San Lucas. Chloe was very helpful in directing us to the right tour - the Mobula Rays had not made it down to Cabo San Lucas yet, but were in La Ventana. Chloe helped us arrange a private snorkeling tour in La Ventana with transportation provided to and from our resort in Cabo San Lucas. The actual snorkeling experience was amazing. Our guide Ophelia was very knowledgeable, super thoughtful, and very fun! We were able to swim with hundreds - perhaps thousands - of Mobula Rays while also seeing many dolphins, sea lions, some beautiful coral reefs, and even a hammerhead shark! Ophelia took some amazing pictures and videos on the GoPro for us too! We would highly recommend working with Cabo Private Guide and would like to thank both Chloe and Ophelia for helping us check off a bucket list item snorkeling with the Mobula Rays!

A one of a kind spectacle! - This was one of the greatest experience I ever had when it comes to seeing marine animals. We saw thousands of rays, under the surface as well as jumping out of the ocean. The spectacle was really amazing.
In addition, we were lucky enough to be followed by a pod of hundreds of dolphins for almost 2 hours.
I highly recommend this boat tour as you can see a one of a kind spectacle. And the tour guide, Ophélie, was really nice and told us a lot about those marine animals.

Over 200 dolphins! - What a trip of a lifetime! The tour went smoothly and we snorkelled with Mobulas. They were incredible to see both on the boat and underwater. For lunch we docked at Isla Ceralvo which was a wonderful experience. On our way back to La Ventana, we encountered a herd of dolphins that swam with us for over an hour - it was a spectacle. Ophelia, our Cabo Private Guide, was attentive, friendly and really informative! If you are vacationing in Cabo and want a unique experience, a Cabo Private Guide tour should definitely be in your itinerary!

Mobula Ray MAGIC with Ophelie and CPG - Wow!!!! This trip blew our minds! Not only was it our first time witnessing the Mobula Ray Aggregation (they even put on a spectacle for us - jumping and flipping out of the ocean) but we also saw a huge pod of dolphins from our boat and followed them for about an hour! Ophelie was an amazing guide and the whole trip flowed from start to finish! Thank you to the whole team at Cabo Private Guide. We will defo be booking again soon :D

Excellent guides and excellent service!! - Excellent!! The tour exceeded our expectations. Felipe was our guide and has an amazing vibe! Our plan was to snorkel with the mobules and then I would go diving alone while my boyfriend stayed on the surface (I am certified and my boyfriend is not). In the end my boyfriend was encouraged to have his "christening" diving or "discover Diving"!This I attribute totally to the trust that inspired us Felipe as a guide and as a person. I must emphasize that my boyfriend is extremely nervous in the water, but diving with Felipe did not seem his first time! Besides this the girls from the front desk were very attentive and patient, especially with me who changed their plans like a thousand times hehe. Thank you very much for this beautiful experience:)

10/10 service - Unfortunately we only saw a handful of Mobula rays, we just got unlucky. But we didn’t even mind too much because Filipe and Brandon, our guides, we’re incredibly knowledgeable of the area and really amazing to chat with. Our captain was outstanding, on the lookout the whole morning for anything we could jump into the water with. All of their excitement and energy really made it incredible. Even though we only saw a couple, I would still 100% recommend this to all of my friends. The teams commitment to making your morning incredible is really impressive and lovely to experience.
