The vegan option for food was delicious! We had a lot of fun and learned a lot about the biodiversity. Got to see a lot of cool animals and our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable!

Had a great time going out to Espiritu Santo and snorkeling with sea lions! Sea lions were very playful and it was amazing getting to snorkel with them. They also took us to a pristine beach that we had all to ourselves, where they served us delicious ceviche, before we headed back.
Tour was very well organized and the guide and captain took great care of us. He was very knowledgeable too!

Island of the Holy Spirit is, in a word, absolute. Our guides, Christian and Valentina, were very knowledgable and especially gracious. The food was delightful. This is the best tour I have ever been on. What a blessing.

Start to finish, communication was excellent. Our trip needed to be postponed due to wind (which I’m guessing is can be common) and the admin staff, Karen, was very helpful and made sure that we were able to attend another tour day that worked for us. Andrea, the lead guide, meet us on-time at the meeting spot. She was extremely engaging, knowledgeable and kind. She spoke fluent English and Spanish (maybe other languages too?) and ran a very smooth trip. Cristian, the boat captain, was also very kind and excellent at his job. They made a great team! The snorkeling was fantastic! We were able to interact with young sea lions and snorkel around and view that numerous fish. My only wish was to be able to snorkel longer. I understand that the time allotment is regulated and the valuable role that regulation plays in protecting the sea life, but nonetheless I could have snorkeled 3x longer. The snorkel portion was about 45 minutes. We had an amazing lunch on a lovely beach. The ceviche was outstanding. We viewed wildlife and historic sites both on the way to the rookery and back, and that was both very interesting and an enjoyable pause in the boat ride. My only complaint would be the life jackets. They were uncomfortable and difficult to snorkel in. All in all, an excellent trip. Thank you!

Amazing tour. The captain Chacho and the guides Otto and Alonso were excellent ! They were very patient, attentive and provided a lot of interesting information about the flora and fauna of the island. It was great to swim so close to the sea lions and see the corals. We had a delicious lunch on a great beach on the way back, I highly recommend this tour

Our guide Maria and Capitan Chris were fabulous! They were very personable and knowledgeable of the sea life, great communicators in both English and Spanish. Snorkeling with the sea lions was amazing, the lunch was delicious, And the boat ride was fun. We saw dolphins, frigate birds, boobies, terns, and many reef fish. Everything about this trip was A+. What an adventure!

Lorenza was an outstanding guide, and Christian was a wonderful captain. The sea lions were playful and plentiful. A day to remember.

Our experience with MTA to visit Espíritu Santo was amazing!!! The tour guide, Mateo, was extremely knowledgeable and the captain, Christian, made the passage very smooth even given the choppy conditions. Swimming amongst the sea lions was the highlight of our trip.

Andrea was a wonderful guide and Christian was an excellent captain of the boat. We were able to get up close and personal with the sea lions. Had a lovely lunch on a secluded beach, and even saw a whale in the distance. A great way to spend the day!
