Our family went on two Huatulco excursions with Mario Cobos. The first was a birdwatching trip that went from Tangolunda to the village of Pluma Hidalgo in the Sierra Madres. We saw many excellent birds and experienced the real Mexico! Mario's enthusiasm and flexibility were absolutely perfect. The second trip was a bay tour that included supreme snorkelling in two...

In Jan. my husband and I spent two weeks in Huatulco along with my sisters and their husbands. The best two days of the trip were spent touring the bays with Mario Cobos. Mario is a knowledgeable and caring guide who takes pride in making your tour enjoyable. We saw whales, dolphins, turtles and mantas. We caught fish and had... More

Mario took us on a fantastic tour. My father has trouble walking, so we didn't want to go on one of the hotel tours with 50 other people and a microphone blasting in your ear. Mario was fantastic!! His English is very good and he is very knowledgeable, fun and energetic. He customized the tour so that my Dad could... More

We have just returned from a cruise through the Panama Canal. While in Huatulco, we used Mario Cobos as a private tour guide. Mario and I had corresponded over a few months by e-mail so we became good amigos. He met us at the port and drove us to a farm, we saw rural Mexico as no one has seen... More

What a wonderful way to spend a day in Huatulco. We took our two boys age 4 and 5 on a boat tour with Mario and were treated to a private beach with snorkeling, fishing and an amazing lunch at Charlie's. We can't wait to come back and do it again! You won't be disappointed, he is a very accommodating... More

Our group of 6 had an outstanding boat bay tour with Mario Cobos. He is the most enthusiastic, positive and energetic guy I have ever met...everybody has to meet Mario! He is quite knowledgeable on many topics--nature, fish, photography, general area, and that adds to the experience. Everybody seems to wave to Mario--he has an infectious personality. We visited several... More

This was no canned tour. My husband and I hired Mario Cobos to take us birdwatching and to see a different side of Oaxaca, and we had so much fun. Mario is flexible and friendly and totally customized the trip based on our interests and fitness level. He took us up into the hills outside of Huatulco to an organic... More

We went to Huatulco in November for a week and it was blissful. The natural beauty of the area and the fact that it is not crowded ( like Hawaii) makes it a wonderful place to visit. I had found a local guide on the internet ( I don't use the 'corporate' companies) and he gave us two days of... More
