good people to go snorkeling with. Very entertaining, extremely safety conscious and informative. They do an excellent job with kids and novice snorkelers. You can book directly with Alphonse's wife only a day in advance or even on the same day if going in the afternoon. I was nervous because I did not receive any ansfer while emailing prior to... More

First rate in giving you your monies worth. Had Giovanni on three trips. What a delightful person. Gave a first rate tour, pointing out all the things you wouldn't see on your. Great personality and very attentive. More

Considering the sheer amount of life near the reef it's almost impossible to have a bad snorkeling trip out to Hol Chan or Shark Ray Alley. However, if you go with Alphonse it will be a once in a lifetime experience. First off, Alphonse taught me more about keeping my mask clear then I ever learned while diving. Second, his... More

Had an excellent night snorkel with Alphonse under the full moon. I would not trust any other guide out at Hol Chan in the dark. He made sure everyone's mask was clear and snorkel was in proper position before we left the boat. Even the seasoned divers aboard were impressed.It was an amazing experience I would recommend to anyone who... More

Alphonse was a great guide and alot of fun. Great safety talk about the shark and rays we swam with. He was great at watching the time. I had to fly out at 1pm. Thanks for the great time Alphonse More

We went snorkeling with another guide the day before and I KNEW there was more to be had. Sure the previous guide was nice and pointed some things out, but I had a feeling Lil Alphonse was going to be a different experience and I was RIGHT. He broke in my mask and taught me how to wear it so... More

We had Giovanni as our guide on two separate days. Had a chance to go 4 places: Hol Chan, Shark-Ray Alley, Mexico Rock and a 'drift snorkel along the barrier reef'. Everything was perfect - cost was right on the ball ($35 per person) and they pick you up wherever you are staying. We look forward to using them again.... More

I really did enjoy this tour, but I question if all this touring is hurting the natural environment. The guide fed the sharks - doesn't that teach them not to hunt for themselves, upsetting the natural balance? I don't think this 'trick' is particular to this vendor either. The guide caught a shark and stingray so we could touch it...they... More

Called the day before and his wife picked us up at the airport. He's like Caesar Milan and Steve Irwin put together of San Pedro jumping in with the sharks and Rays hugging them. Very animated and informative, knew his stuff. Not just another show me the money, he loves this job. Takes his time to make sure you get... More
