We had such a great time on our private tour. We got picked up at 8am from our drive and guide Fren (sorry, I’m not sure how he spells it) he drove us 3.5hrs to Bacalar, stopping whenever needed and always offering us a beverage and checking to see if the A/C was ok. So accommodating and so sweet. His English wasn’t the greatest so we didn’t get to learn too much but we still really enjoyed ourselves and getting to know our tour guide. We got to make the decisions on how our itinerary went. We decided we wanted to save the best for last so we stopped at Cenote Azul and took a refreshing dive in the deep blue water, then got hungry so we ate lunch right along it. Lunch was included and sooooo good! Then we did a tour of the fort de San Felipe, then went on the boat tour where we went all around the lagoon and it’s beautiful colors. Got to see where the birds nest, cenote Esmeralda, and stopped at the pirates canal where we lathered and exfoliated ourselves in the mud/sand. As we thought the tour was over there was one more activity! We went to a park which had large waterslides, beach lounges and a dock to jump off of. We stayed for a bit and enjoyed the sun and the water and decided to head back as we had a long drive home.
Our tour guide, Fren (sp?) Was absolutely Perfecto! My husband was saying that, while on the road, when I was sleeping Fren made an extra effort not to wake me by making small slow movements when he would go into the dash and grab a snack to eat and eat slowly as to not make too much noise. Lol I thought that was sweet.
Overall such a great experience!
