We had a wonderful private tour to Rio Lagartos and Pink Lakes we saw many wild animals such as crocodiles, flamingos and Pelicans! All of our family members, 8y.o. son and 6 y.o. daughter and my wife and I, were very satisfied. Pink Lakes are so unique place that we felt as if we came to an another planet. And our tour Salvador is the best guide we ever had. He is calm and very genuine person and very knowledgeable about wild animals and also wonderful photographer and driver.
I definitely recommend you this tour and him!
Muchas Gracias Salvador!
