    Our whole experience was excellent. They met us right where they said they would be. Our driver was very professional and friendly. He was knowledgeable about the area. I would recommend this trip a million times over the cruise ship options.

    We went kayaking to El Morro to have a special ceremony. We were 4 adults and 3 kids (4,8,10 years old). Alfredo was the best guide with a lot of patience. And the best is that they care about the environment and picked up garbage found on the way. The price is excellent and the service was amazing!!

    Mario has all the experiences you are looking for. We snorkeled one day, and we returned another day so I could scuba and my husband went on a guided hike on Isla Roqueta. The guides were helpful and patient - even with the language challenges (my Spanish is not great!). Some of the best memories we made in Acapulco were in the water with SDA!

    We didn’t actually dive with them because we weren’t looking for an organized dive at the moment, but we stopped in to ask about local dive spots and Felipe was very friendly and helpful and had very good English. The shop was very neat and clean and the dive gear looked to be in good condition. The dive boat also looked well set-up when we walked past it.

    Felipe said that they could offer a private guide if we wanted since we have our own boat and gear.

    If you are looking for a scuba shop in Acapulco, definitely check this one out.

    Love my time at Ski Paradise! I’ve gone as a skier and non skier and had such a good time! The Villa, the food, the coaching and the friendships made are the best! Being taken care of while in paradise is my idea of vacation!

    Luck was not with us today. However, it certainly was not for a lack of trying on behalf of the captain and crew! They went everywhere and tried so hard, but no fish today. Still the captain was so personable and we saw tons of dolphins and sea turtles. We will be coming back next year to try again! I highly recommend these guys!!! They were fantastic!

    We went to the main dock and bought tickets for $12.50 each for a 2 1/2 hour cruise around Acapulco bay. It toured all around the bay and pointed out highlights and homes of the rich and famous. The tours included live music, free drinks and fun was had by all. They even had a dance contest if you're into that kind of thing. Don't buy tickets from a travel site because they are about haft the cost if you get them at dockside or by phone. Smooth sailing.

    Several tours with Baldo Gomez- an outstanding guide and wonderful person. Highly recommend the Tehuacalco ruins with Poly our local guide and exotic lunch at his daughters stand down the road- Baldo is an excellent translator and gives great insight into local customs. Baldo has water and other refreshments available. We also visited Felix’s family restaurant and did a loaf on tour and did the city tour. Those were repeats for us and would do them again.
    We love Baldo♥️

    My week in Acapulco has been wonderful. Traveling with my elderly parents comes with challenges. Upon our arrival, we asked our hotel staff about tours, and we were put in touch with David from Pacific Tours, who dashed over from a neighboring hotel to greet us and offer suggestions for tours. We booked a total of four tours during the week, and David selected options that seemed custom- made for my parents and me. On my own, I did one afternoon tour that included a few stops at markets so I could shop and look at local wares, in addition to a stop at Fort San Diego, a visit to a beautiful church, and a scenic ride through the city. Fernando was my guide, and any traveler would be lucky to spend the afternoon in his company. He even stopped to buy me a bottle of water. Our guide for the other three tours we booked was Rogelio (“Roger Dodger”). After the first day with him, we asked for him again. Roger took us to see the important sites around Acapulco, and he shared with us an interesting mix of humor, history, geography, language, art, and culture related to the area. One tour included the cliff divers’ evening show, followed by a leisurely dinner under the stars at Las Brisas Hotel with an incredible view of Acapulco. Roger made the whole experience extra special. I especially appreciate how much care he took to assure that my parents didn’t have to worry about too many stairs or steps. Today he took us to some more markets where local people shop, he had us eating the sweetest, juiciest fruit we’ve ever tasted, and later he took us to a little place for lunch that we would never have found on our own and will not soon forget. I was kind of sad saying goodbye to Roger at the end, because the whole experience was more like being shown the sites by a friend who treated my parents like he would treat his own parents. My memories of my week in Acapulco will always include Roger.

    The scuba diving in Acapulco is a good experience into a very confortable warm water temperature and with a undersea view of enormous rock formed as arrecifes with a large variety of fish of all colors, turtles and horse fish, the experience is well achieved with the company named Swiss divers Located at the Caleta hotel

    This was my familia’s first time fishing. We chartered a boat from Bluewater Sportfishing Tres Amigos. The reservation was made through fishingbooker.com. It was painless and communication to tell us the time and place for the departure was great. Carlos and Ruby, The Captain and deck hand was patient and made sure that my familia had a great experience. We slayed them today catching lots of mahi mahi all under 3 1/2 hours. We caught so many fish in a short time that we returned to the dock earlier than was expected. This was more than I could have asked for. My familia will remember this experience for the rest of their lives. Thanks again Tres Amigos
