    DO NOT BOOK THIS TOUR
    debbie_f, Apr 2024
    DO NOT BOOK THIS TOUR. The tour guide didn’t show up on the appointed day. The hotel concierge reached him and he blamed Viator and said the tour was supposed to the next evening. He did not show up again the second night. I have an extremely disappointed little boy and for two nights in a row, my vacation plans were completely messed up.
    Very authentic, natural experience
    Michele_H, Dec 2023
    Very unique experience. Great for those who love a little adventure and to truly have a natural experience. I wouldn’t recommend for children under ten. There is a lot of waiting and being quiet while the turtles are laying their eggs. And be prepared to get sandy if you want to get close to the turtles. But definitely a once in a lifetime experience. Also, the ride to and from is quite rough. But again, well worth it to see the tortuga negra laying her eggs.

    Amazing

    Seeing the turtle come up into the beach was amazing! And the beach at night was just beautiful. The darkness just made it even more incredible.
