Isaac, German and Javier were such awesome guides. They were very helpful. We got really lucky because we were the only people on the boat. They gave us a great tour and helped us out with our 6 year old getting her set up to snorkel. The boat was really comfortable and we couldnt have asked for a better experience. The pictures they took were incredible as well. Thanks a bunch Isaac, Javier and German!!!!! We will for sure come back next time we are in town.

Isaac our tour guide was fantastic and everyone was super friendly! We had a great time learning about the marina and the surrounding area. We saw a bunch of beautiful fish, coral and sea lions. Enjoying fruit and beer on the way back really made the trip!
Martin, Junior and Esau were excellent guides for this excursion. We viewed the Cabo rock formations from both water bodies of water, then snorkeling for 1 hour at Pelican Rock. Definitely worth the money, although the location is a bit hard to find, as there are no physical addresses attached to the buildings. Just click the link to have the map guide you.
This tour was everything that we were looking for! It was easy to find the meeting point at the marina and then we hopped on the boat and went out to Lovers Beach and took some pictures on the boat with the rocks in the background and then we stopped at a couple places to go snorkeling. It was a really fun day the crew was very kind and considerate and we will definitely book with them when we return.
Great guide and experience. My kids were in a bit of a funk and they helped keep everything fun. Little hard to find the meet up. Park at the marina and ask the first person you see where to find Pocho.
Loved the tour guides! So helpful and fun! Fresh fruit and beers
Javier, Fernando, and German were amazing guides. They made the trip great for me especially given that I’m not a swimming and it was my first time snorkeling ever
Amazing trip. Everyone was so nice!! Thank you !!!
Great experience! Affordable and fun! Lots of tropical fish and wildlife. Toyr guides were great!
Great experience. Guide and crew were helpful and knowledgeable. Really enjoyed the water and learning about the area.
This was truly an awesome little adventure for my wife and I. The 3-man crew spoke English and Spanish and provided phenomenal service. The fruit was good, the drinks were good, the snorkeling and views and photos were amazing.
This was such a great experience and an amazing value! Isaac was our guide and actually got in the water with us to show us around while snorkeling and to make sure we were safe and comfortable at all times. He always checked on us to make sure we were doing okay and carried a ring buoy with him for extra safety, so we felt completely comfortable the whole time. He was patient, knowledgeable, and explained everything really well. Armando was our captain and was very professional and skilled, which made us feel even more comfortable out on the water. German was our photographer and took amazing pictures and even drone footage. The photos and videos were great quality and definitely worth purchasing, especially because now we have something to look back on and remember the experience. There were only four of us on the tour, which made it feel much more personal. In the water, we saw tons of fish and even a sea lion, and the water was warm and clear. We also got to see the Arch, beaches, and caves before stopping to snorkel. Drinks, fruit, and all the gear were included too. We had such a great time and would definitely recommend this tour!
We walked to the meeting location in Plaza Bonita (behind the Nowhere Bar) and waited at the tables in front of the juice bar. They greeted us and put on our armbands and took us to the boat in the marina. Isaac, German, and Captain Armando were so friendly. They had water, soda, and beer on ice. After we donned our life jackets, we headed out to Lover’s Beach, the arch, Land’s End, and around to Divorce Beach. Pictures were taken at the arch. The views were amazing. We then went to Pelican Island for our snorkel adventure. The fins, snorkels, and masks were packaged nicely and were well maintained. We could snorkel with or without life jackets in an area roped off to boats. Izaac told us about the fish and guided us around the rock where we saw so many beautiful fish, diving ducks, and pelicans. The coral reef was teeming with fish. We had time to explore on our own before getting back on the boat where fresh fruit and cold drinks awaited us. We were able to view and purchase the pictures and drone video from our trip. We felt safe and welcome the entire time. We booked the 9:30 am time and it was perfect. We went in September and it was hot! We recommend this excursion - bring an underwater camera if you can.
Armando, Isaac, and German were amazing! Great two hours on the boat. Since we were the only ones, they let us snorkel for as long as we wanted! My daughter got sea sick during the last part of the tour and they were so kind.
We did a boat tour to see the Arch, Pelican Rock, Divorce Beach, and Lover’s Beach, with snorkeling included. There were only five of us in the group, which made it feel very personal. The ocean was pretty rocky that day, but our boat driver did a great job navigating the waves and kept us feeling safe the whole time. Zach was our snorkeling instructor and did an amazing job — we got to see lots of beautiful fish and just enjoy being in the water. They also filmed us with a drone and a GoPro, with the option to purchase the photos and videos afterward. Definitely would recommend.
Great value, the snorkel activity was great. We saw many different fish.
This was a great deal for snorkeling. The crew was very friendly and engaging. The snacks were a basket of cut up fruit with beers, sodas and water. We saw a lot of fish of various colors and sizes and even came across a large sea turtle. The only problem we had was finding the place, "Pachos Cabo Adventures". The directions took us to the right area but couldn't find the office. There is a small grocery there with the name "Pachos" on the outside. Go inside the store and there is a door with the name of "Pachos Cabo Adventures " on it.
Good guys. The water was pretty rough on the day I went due to a tropical storm to the west so the snorkeling visibility was only 8-10 feet at best but the crew was friendly and safe. Only problem for me was the meetup spot is a solid mile walk around the marina if you’re on a cruise ship and I haven’t been so hot in years. Not their fault, though.
Isaac and Armando were great! Isaac is very knowledgeable and Armando made us feel safe the entire time. Definitely would recommend seeing all of the beautiful fish.
Amazing experience! Max, Javier, and Hermon were incredible hosts. My wife and kids loved the snorkeling and glass bottom boat. The Arch was beautiful. We highly recommend this to anyone looking for a perfect trip.
We had a wonderful time on this snorkeling excursion. Our guides were fun, knowledgeable and we felt safe and comfortable with them. We spent alot of time in the water, saw lots of cool fish. We got to see the arch. The fruit, water and beer were nice treats after snorkeling. I would highly recommend this adventure!
Guides were great, equipment was new along with life vests. And the fruit was delicious!
Max, Herman, and Javier were professional, knowledgeable, and made the trip a lot of fun. We felt safe the entire time, and everyone was required to wear a life jacket while on the boat. There was plenty of snorkel gear available, and they were very generous with fresh fruit and drinks throughout the excursion. They shared interesting information about the local history and the sites we visited, and the tour was the perfect length—it never felt rushed. Overall, it was an excellent value for the price. We would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to snorkel in Cabo!
Low cost yet so much to do and see! We felt very safe throughout the tour. Special thanks to Max for being so attentive to us.
It was a great experience! Definitely going back for the whale watching experience! Thanks Robert, Javier and German for the great tour
Ponchos tours was great! My kids loved everything about it! The boat ride, pictures and snorkeling! They provided fruit and drinks. Thank you German, Robert and Javier for the great experience!!!
Our experience on our snorkel tour was fantastic! Our guides were fabulous! We saw lots of fish, the arch, and we had a fun boat ride. Our guides spoke excellent English. They were knowledgeable, very helpful with our young kids in the water. (7 and 9 year olds) We felt safe. They provided fruit, water and beer. I highly recommend this tour!
The experience was not bad for te price, however, the experience culd have been better if the equipment was in good condition. My daughters and myself are the same size, one of us got a size M life jacket, which is all of our size, the other two received a size XL which is way too big and made the experience difficult, uncomfortable and a bit dangerous. I had to keep pulling my vest down and it made it hard to manuever. The flipper were also in bad repair, so I would skip those next time. The operator was repsonsive and the trip was really fun. We were happy to see all the fish.
We had a great experience! Max, Armando and Captain Javier were great and made it a very enjoyable tour. Max gave great information about the landmarks that we sailed by. The snorkeling was the best we have done. There was plenty of time allowed for snorkeling at the stop and we saw a lot of fish. Definitely recommend this tour.
This was a fun snorkeling trip with a knowledgeable guide. We received a tour around the different rock formations while our guide shared his knowledge of the area and some of its history. Snorkeling was in a clearly marked location and though we did not get to see a sea lion we did see many beautiful fish some swimming in schools.
Amazing time with Armando and Max, highly recommend doing this. Beautiful sights, and great experience overall!
Armando and Max were fabulous! So nice, funny and attentive! I took my wife, 17 yr old daughter, and friend. They all had a blast! I would do this over and over again. I tipped another $20 I was so impressed.
Hos and his crew were awesome. They shared lots of interesting information during our boat ride and watched over everyone during snorkeling.
Great experience. Easy to do, fun guides. Great value. Highly recommend
Herman and Armando were great
The meetup point is a 10-15 minute walk from the cruise tender dropoff point - was a little hard to find in the courtyard with no sign (had to ask a shop owner). Once on board we were met with delightful crew - German and Javier. They were so friendly to me and our young kids. There were beers, soft drinks, water, and fruit provided. We did a tour of the rock formations and beaches (Arch, Lands End, Lovers Beach, etc), with some fantastic photographs by German, and followed by a snorkel session at Pelican Rock. The snorkel equipment seemed well maintained and we got to see the coral and many beautiful fish. Although I did get a jellyfish sting, they calmly helped to address that on the boat. They were willing to negotiate on the price for digital photos, which we ended up purchasing. At the end, they were willing to drop us off on one of the beaches so we could enjoy swimming (and we caught another water taxi back to the cruise tender area). All in all, I felt it was a good value and added some extras, for a lower price than other similar offerings. Thank you!
Garmin and Javier were amazing guides. They showed and explained so much regarding the rock structures and reefs. They made the excursion so much fun! The family had the best time and want to do it again when we return. Thank you guys, from the Mucho Grande Family. Haha.
We had a wonderful time. The staff was amazing! German was very knowledgeable and hospitable. If you have young ones this is the boat! They accommodated us flawlessly.
Excellent help from Abby and German.
Absolutely amazing boat tour and snorkeling experience! Haz, Urian, and Javier were so friendly, fun, and made everyone feel comfortable the whole time. The water was beautiful and clear, and we saw so many fish while snorkeling. Everything was organized really well, the vibes were perfect, and the views were unreal. Thank you!
Great experience with great guides. Highly recommend. Guides German and Javier were excellent and accommodating
We had a great time, expert and friendly guide! The snorkeling was beautiful, and we got some amazing photos!
Very nice and friendly, all the guys are respectful and funny
Great tour and snorkeling. Haz was a fun and informative tour guide. Javier captained a comfortable boat ride and Urian rounded out the friendly crew as photographer. We saw all the key sights and had ample snorkel time. Drinks and fruit provided. The fruit was a nice palette cleanser after snorkeling. A great variety of fish were visible both on the Boat tour and while snorkeling. Fee was around $45 each with tips encouraged. 2 hour total trip, though additional water taxi service was included to the beach if you have enough time. We booked as a cruise shore excursions (on our own). This was a much better value than the ship's offerings and we ended up enjoying a private trip. If you are comfortable snorkeling, this is a great tour.
My fiancé had snorkeling on her list for Los Cabos and this definitely delivered! The crew was amazing, friendly and communicative! Showed us some amazing sights and did a wonderful job explaining things along the way.
The experience is great! Our tour guide gaciel and captain are very friendly and funny. Gaviel took care of the kiddos while in the water during snorkeling. Will recommend this company. They take your pictures usng your phone and not charge for that service unlike other companies. The tour also took full 2 hours and option to drop off on beach to swim and extend more time at the beach and offered boat taxi for to return after tour.
German was a great host. He and the captain were very accommodating. They got us up close to the arch, Lovers Beach and Divorce Beach.
We had the best time with German and Javier! They brought out to the Arch and then snorkeling. We spent quite a bit of time taking photos and viewing the scenery while out at the rock formations. The snorkeling spot was wonderful with a ton of colorful fish. I would highly recommend! This was perfect timing for a cruise stop in Cabo.
German and Javier were the best!!! Great photographers too!!! So much fun :)
Amazing value! Hit all the most important spots, good pacing, and Herman and Javier were fantastic guides. Highly recommend.
