Acapulco area tour

Great experience with our guide. She was very knowledgeable and very friendly. Gave us some great suggestions and showed some hidden jewels of Acapulco area. Will definitely recommend. Thanks!

Ken D, Apr 2018

Loved the quaintness of the excursion. The guide and driver were excellent. The beach lunch was fantastic. I was a bit disappointed in the turtle release. Maybe my expectations were to high. I wanted to see the eggs and have better understanding of turtles. We were given baby turtles and given a line on the shore where to stand and relese them. They did swim to the ocean which was awesome. I just wanted more history and explaination

susan_W, Mar 2018

We were on a cruise ship that stopped in Acapulco for the day. Our instructions were to meet our guide outside the gangplank at 11:30...They changed the pick-up time to 9:00 which was good for us, but unfortunate for two in our group of 8 people that did not have access to internet for the new time. We waited for over 30 minutes and then left without them. The tour was overall great. The boat ride was wonderful with lots of great scenery and species of birds. The best part of the day was the release of the Kemp Ridley turtles... A very special event. I was able to release six into the Pacific Ocean...hoping that at least one will survive their perilous journey to adulthood. The reason, I am giving this tour a four instead of a five is the lunch. It was terrible. Two extra cold beers were nice, but I can not recommend the fish or shrimp lunches....of course we were hungry, so we ate some of it...but it was not appetizing. The beans were tasteless, the rice was dry and the shrimp were over cooked and dried out...so. you could not get them out of their shells. This company could change my rating to five stars plus, if they just improve the lunch...

Roger was an amazing guide and very knowledgeable. The tour was a lot of fun, there were 4 in our family ranging in age from 13-63 and everyone had a great time. You have the opportunity to swim in the river, so bring a suit! There is also a mud mask you can buy. I highly recommend this tour.

Roger picked us up at hotel and took us for a great tour of Acapulco! Very knowledgeable on plants, birds, and culture! The boat ride in the Coyuca Lagoon was amazing! Very clear water! Mud facial, wide variety birds! Great lunch at beach restaurant, shrimp and chicken adobo!

Tour started in my hotel, then we head to Pie de la Cuesta beach, Arturo and Roger our guides were a wealth of information and they additionally drove through the City Market, It took one hour approx. to arrive to Barra de Coyuca, the narrow strip of land between Pacific Ocean and Laguna de Coyuca where Sylvester Stallone filmed Rambo: First Blood Part II. What a paradise. The mixture of the two different areas turned out in success. It came naturally and very beautiful to me, with bird flocks, sand, sea waves and the lagoon. Very peaceful atmosphere, I would say. Lunch was awesome, but my favorite part was the Sea Turtle Release, what a cool thing to witness and be a part of! One of the best tours Ive ever taken, I thought at first it sounded like a super Touristy thing to do, but it's now one of the things I tell people not to miss!!!

Bruce T, Oct 2017

A great trip off the beaten path. We were picked up at our hotel by a air-conditioned van, and traveled out of Acapulco to Coyuca Lagoon. Had a very interesting boat ride around the lagoon with commentary about wild life of the lagoon. Saw the locals fishing and later on had a huge meal at a restaurant on the beach - all inclusive with the price. An added surprise was, the tour guide took pictures during the tour and created a great video which was sent to us at no additional charge. A great souvenir of the trip. Thank you - I highly recommend this tour

Donna M, Feb 2017

Being an outdoor person, my husband absolutely loved this tour. it was so nice to get out of the city and see the flora and fauna of the lagoon. The long, clean beach was amazing. I loved releasing the baby turtles. They were so cute. The food was delicious and eating it practically on the beach was so peaceful. Loved this tour. Highly recommend it.

Oscar B, Aug 2016

The tour was a great experience, I was picked up at the lobby hotel by Jose, he spoke a pretty good english, he's a great guy, professional and fun. first we went to Coyuca Lagoon, 20 minutes away from Costera main street, there's a stunning mangrove jungle where we go trough it on a boat and saw some beautiful birds like white american ibis and some kind of wild ducks. Actually, some Hollywood movies were filmed in this location, like the blockbuster Rambo II, performed by Syl Stallone. Then we went to the turtle camp where we released baby turtles into the ocean, was incredible, I felt the force of nature in my hands!! I took pics like crazy! I really enjoyed this tour and I thought that it worth the price. I highly recommend this tour and doing it with this company, you're going to feel very comfortable and safe.
