EcoColors Tours

We had an amazing time on this tour. We’re so incredibly lucky to have had this experience with this whale shark. Remembering that all of this is luck and to have such an encounter is unbelievable. Even if we didn’t see a whale shark this tour still would have been amazing! We had amazing guides Jose, Chano, Eduardo on the boat Eisha. They were all wonderful and very knowledgeable about any questions we had. We even got to snorkel a little more during our amazing lunch break of ceviche and guac plus a sandwhich on the way to snorkeling. Pick up and hotel drop off was seamless thanks to the driver Mario! Thank you so much ecocolors, this is something we’ll remember for a lifetime!

The guides were excellent and the experience unforgettable. I was impressed with all the rules in place as well as the cooperation between the boats so the whale sharks space was respected. Captain made us fresh ceviche and guacamole and we enjoyed a quick stop at the north end of Isla Mujeres before heading back. **Bring separate tip money for guide and boat staff.

Used EcoColors Tours for a day of adventure and Mayan exploration around Cancun. Couldn't have had a more enjoyable and memorable experience. Mario drove us all over the Yucatan...and Riaz was our amazing tour guide. These two guys were key to our family's ability to pack in a staggering amount of sightseeing and activity in a single day. Great coordination and logistics. Highly recommended!! (I'd give more than 5 stars, but Google only allows 5!)

We did the whale shark tour . Marie was our guide she was very sweet and make sure that we all had everything we needed. The pick us on time at our hotel, they stop on a pharmacy on the way to the marina since a few of the travelers needed to get dramamine and biodegradable sunblock. When we arrive at the marina they had assorted fruits, coffee, tea and juice waiting for us. Take the dramamine as soon as you can the boat ride to the whale shark spot is rough, very rough. Is almost like a race to see which boat get to the spot the fastest. Per park regulations only two people per boat ( plus the guide) can be in the water at a time. There lots of your boat in the same area . The whale sharks move fast so you have to be in the water as soon at the captain says go or you will miss it. The deckhand of my boat took my hand and help me swim after one of the whales so that i can see it longer it was pretty amazing. After eveylryone had a chnage to swim and see the whale sharks you get a light lunch (sanwich ) and drinks. My guide Marie wanted to make sure everyone was happy and offer to let ua get in the water again . Me and another passanger jump at the opportunity. The time with the whale sharks is limited so enjoy every momen. Afterwards the boat goes to Isla Mujeres another rough ride there you can swim in shallow water and enjoy a freshly made ceviche. You can let them know if you want to buy the video of the experience at the start of the trip so they can record you as you go, including in the water . No obligations before you pay they will show you what they have of you and if you get it a few days later you will get a nicely edit video of your tour.

My husband and I have always wanted to swim with the whale sharks and we were so happy to find out we could do that in Cancun vs having to travel to the Philippines or Maldives! I did some research online and decided to book with Ecocolors Tours. They picked us up on time. Our guide Veronica was awesome and gave us a lot of good instructions and info about the whale shark. We stopped by a pharmacy to get some sea sick pills and that worked great as none of us got sea sick. It took a little over an hour to find the sharks but the captain found them and there were at least 7 of them! They are truly the magnificent gentle giants of the sea and we were in awe! Then the crew made a delicious lunch for everyone. My husband and I are vegetarians so they made us cheese sandwich and guacamole, and it was delicious too! We were so glad we bought the video/photo package from Eco! Veronica turned it into a wonderful video clip that you can share with friends and family. Totally worth paying the extra! We highly recommend Eco!
