I had an amazing dive in two different cenotes with Alan yesterday. We went to Casa Cenote and Cenote Dos Ojos. My last dive was two years ago and Alan had a lot of patience with me and I felt very safe and comfortable. The second Cenote will probably stay as one of my favourite dive experience :)

Alan is an incredibly responsible scuba diving guide. He led me to explore various breathtakingly beautiful caves, an experience that remains unforgettable to this day. He taught me how to control my buoyancy with great patience and professionalism. He also repeatedly checked all my equipment to ensure my safety, proving himself to be a highly conscientious guide. Additionally, the snacks he brought along were delicious. I truly hope to have the chance to dive with him again.

We had a great experience diving 4 cenotes over 2 days with Alan. He was very communicative, went above and beyond, giving us a ton of recommendations about where to go and what to do in town. Super chill while being incredibly professional the whole time. Can't recommend him enough.

Jorge und Alan sind großartig!
Obwohl wir schon einige Tauchgänge im Logbuch haben, wurde immer alles kontrolliert. Man kann sich also sehr sicher fühlen!
Die ersten Tauchgänge mit Jorge waren unglaublich.
Freundlich liebevoll und voller Respekt hat er uns einer der schönsten Tauchgänge beschert. Die Stimmung war großartig.
Die anderen Tauchgänge haben wir mit Alan verbracht. Der Tauchgang zu den Bullenhaien war sehr gut. Ich hatte vorher großen Respekt. Alan hat es sehr professionell mit uns durchgezogen und ich würde das nächste mal ohne Zuzögern wieder zu den Haien hinunter.
Er geht auf die Menschen ein und hört ihnen zu. Seine liebevolle Art, die Freundlichkeit und Hilfsbereitschaft zeichnen ihn aus.
Danke für diese unvergesslichen Momente mit euch!

We were with Jorge for the first dive in the sea among the reefs and saw many turtles; we really liked it. We did the next dives with Alan; it was fantastic. We were with the "bull sharks" in the cenotes, and we booked our next trip with him again... Beautiful greetings from Germany!

Wir haben unseren SDI Open Water bei Alan gemacht. Hierfür haben wir vorab den Kontakt über WhatsApp aufgenommen und alles geplant.
Alan hat sich viel Zeit genommen uns alles geduldig zu erklären und uns langsam ans Tauchen heranzuführen. Wir haben uns zu jeder Zeit sicher und wohl gefühlt.
Zusätzlich hat er uns echt gute Empfehlungen für die lokale Küche gegeben!
Danke für diese tollen Erinnerungen, besser gehts nicht!
