GREAT EXPERIENCE - TOP NOTCH SERVICE!

Published on Nov, 2024

Miguel (guide) and Charlie (boat captain) made this snorkeling and Balandra beach tour a great experience! Miguel is the boat owner and owner of UP DIve in La Paz. He is also a very knowledgeable marine biologist who made this tour a great learning experience. I would highly recommend this or any tour by Miguel and UP Dive.

We would do it again!

Mateo We enjoyed and appreciated meeting and spending time with Mateo and Miguel. They are very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The boats were in good order and comfortable. The snorkeling gear was very good. The itinerary covered 5 hours and was completely enjoyed.

Amazing day with great crew

Published on Oct, 2024

What an unforgettable day thanks to Miguel and Alberto. We took our 1 and 3 year old girls and they made sure we were all comfortable throughout the day. They took us to several locations to see some wildlife, snorkel with sea lions, and have a delicious ceviche lunch on a beautiful beach in Balandra which we had to ourselves. They shared their wealth of knowledge of the area with us (they are marine biologists) and even our 3 year old was interested in hearing about the birds and fish. Thanks Miguel and Alberto for a day we will remember! Highly recommend!

Amazing Day!

Amazing day! Miguel and Mateo were thoughtful, communicative, and so passionate! i learned a lot, and had the most enchanting day!!!

We loved the tour and all the unique spots we got to visit! Miguel and Regina are so knowledgeable and the nicest people

Published on Aug, 2024

The tour was absolutely wonderful. We loved everything start to finish. Miguel and Regina are the friendliest and the most professional tour guides you could hope for. We were shown many unique nature spots and habitats of native animals including blue footed boobies and sea lions. Miguel studied marine biology and shared a lot of information and many interesting facts about local wildlife. He is a great captain, and thought the ocean wasn’t smooth at times, we were always very comfortable. We got to snorkel really close to sea lions, and that was incredible. Regina was in the water with us keeping her eyes on the behavior of the animals, and making sure we are as close as we can get without disturbing them. We anchored at a stunning beach, with crystal clear water and white sand. We brought some drinks and Regina was very attentive making sure we always had one in our hands. They served the most delicious fish ceviche, we cruised around some more enjoying the stunning rock formations on the islands, and we experienced an absolutely magical sunset on our way back. 10 out of 10!
