Book a seat on one of our daily whale shark tour boats. Start the day with an informative talk about the whale sharks, what to expect and all kinds of useful information. Then board one of our safe comfortable boats to head out for your adventure. Groups of 2 will snorkel with a guide to get up close and personal with these gentle giants. We require all participants to follow rules and behave in a manor that respects the whale sharks and creates a safe and fun experience for all. Once the group tires out you will head back to Isla and enjoy a snorkel/swim just off the island and some fresh prepared ceviche. You can expect a lot of excitement and story sharing on the trip back! You’ll probably want a siesta once you get back and the excitement wears off!

Bucket list item – check! What a great experience. I would recommend this tour to anyone. Ramon and Chris were both responsive and flexible with us when needed. The boat captain and guide made sure we had the time of our lives, even pulling away from all of the other boats so we felt like we were on a private tour with the sharks. The ceviche was delicious and everyone we encountered was a delight. Just book it! – From Google Reviews – July 2022

ONCE IN A LIFETIME EXPERIENCE!
I did this back in 2018 and returned again July 2022 with my boyfriend. This is an incredible experience you will never forget! I felt comfortable and safe with Ramon the entire time, he is extremely knowledgeable and friendly! I loved how much respect this place has for the whale sharks and the other sea life. These people care about you and do everything they can to make this experience incredible! – From Google – July 2022

We had the most fabulous day! Our guide was Arturo and our Captain was Jesus. They made sure we had a safe amazing day. Jesus was great at being able to move the boat into the best position to get us at just the right spot to swim with the sharks. Arturo was great helping us along and keeping us moving with the sharks and meeting everyone at their swimming and energy levels. We ended up seeing a sea turtle and being able to swim with 4 manta rays as well as two sharks. They had the best fruit and sandwiches during the trip and made delicious ceviche and fresh guacamole for us while we floated around North Beach before taking us back to the pier. This was probably the highlight of our trip. Absolutely fantastic!

My experience with Ramon and his guides was exceptional! They are smart, fun, professional, and provided a great time for our group and the other tourists on our boat. Our guides prepared us well for the whale sharks and we all got up close and swam with them as many times as we wanted (I would say 1-3 times was enough for our people). They met every expectation. 5 stars!! – From TripAdvisor – July 2021

I loved Ramon! His spirit shined with the radiance of 1,000 suns. Beautiful! The tour was perfectly executed and the two young men who took us out had impeccable manners and a genuine warmth. They took great care of us and made it a perfect experience. Also, the ceviche was the best I’ve ever had! Unforgettable! – From TripAdvisor July 2021

My initial search was to find a whale shark operator that was knowledgeable about whale sharks, the ocean ecosystem, etc. It did not take long to discover Ramon. He is one of the leading authorities on whale sharks, and he cares deeply about their welfare. Ramon is extremely knowledgeable about the entire ocean ecosystem and freely shares this knowledge with his customers. I highly recommend booking with Ramon and his crew. Not only did we encounter numerous whale sharks, there were also sea turtles, wild dolphins, numerous manta rays, etc. Nobody on our boat was disappointed!! Ramon’s customers are always treated with first class hospitality. That is evident right from the start. Even before boarding, Ramon meets you with freshly made pastries and coffee. This is followed later in the day with fresh fruit, homemade sandwiches, various types of beverages, and freshly prepared ceviche. I highly recommend booking with Ramon and his crew. It’s an unbelievable experience that combines adventure, education, and fantastic service. – From TripAdvisor – June 2021

If you spend time researching the whale shark tours operating out of Isla Mujeres, you will come to the obvious conclusion that you should go with Ramon Guerrero. He is the person who made the afuera known to the world. He and his team have a vested interest in following all the laws, and ensuring that the animals are not harassed. You won’t get that from other, cheaper operators. On our boat was a family who hadn’t seen many whale sharks the day before so Ramon, true to his word, took them out again for no charge.
Make sure that you understand the meet-up plans and the legalities (e.g. no sunscreen) before you leave home! – From Trip Advisor – May 2021
