Customer Reviews
This was THE BEST experience. We had a whole boat (10 people) 5 of which were kids (ages 4,4,4,7,7). The guides were great with the kids in the water and were just awesome in general. I loved it so much. The whale sharks were so friendly and it was amazing. I would do it again for sure and would highly recommend it to everyone. They also took some pictures and videos which they gave us for free. Definitely use this company!!!
Thank you so much Luis and Noe! You were super hosts and super professional ❣️ you were very focused to find the shark wales and tell us when is the right time to jump and you took care of our kids like yours. Also I was overwhelmed with Noe cooking skills and Luis ability to give attention to everyone and you both shared with generosity your knowledge and your love to the sea. We also saw Dolphins and turtles!!! Very Very recommended ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I went on a whale shark tour with DC Explorer on July 14, and it exceeded expectations. We had an amazing time. We were picked up from our hotel in Cancun shortly after 7:15 am and returned around 2 pm. The weather was calm that day, the boat ride wasn’t too rough, and it didn’t take as long as I expected to find the whale sharks. Everything was exactly as advertised. When you book with DC Explorer, you’re actually going out with their team and not being passed off to a random operator like some other companies do. I had read great reviews about guide Ricky and captain Gabriel, so I was thrilled when they introduced themselves at the dock. A couple of unexpected highlights: you can rent a wetsuit and wear it instead of a life jacket while swimming, which made the experience even better. Ricky also took some great videos, which he airdropped right on the boat. I saw complaints about other tours never sending media, so this was a big plus. As others have said, the ceviche was delicious, and there were plenty of cold drinks on board. Recommendations: Wear a hat and UPF shirt. We saw a huge number of whale sharks. Not sure if every group hears this, but we were told it was one of the best days of the season. Everyone got to swim twice, and although we could see lots of other boats nearby, our group was set apart with its own cluster of sharks, away from the chaos. I felt safe the entire time and would absolutely recommend this tour. We also had a great group. I dropped my camera at North Beach, and everyone helped me find it on the bottom. Huge thanks to the couple from the Netherlands that spotted it!
