Cholón Island: While incredibly fun, Cholón is a lively "party island" where alcohol consumption is common. It's not suitable for everyone.

Please choose this option wisely based on your preferences.

Additional Fees: Any entrance fees to additional attractions (like the Oceanarium) or extra services you choose are not included in your tour price and are your responsibility to pay directly.

Snorkeling Safety: Our snorkeling activity takes place in deeper waters, not directly from the beach. For your comfort and safety, we highly recommend wearing water shoes and using the provided life vests.

Personal Insurance: While our tour includes basic coverage for minor accidents up to certain limits, it's essential that all travelers have their own comprehensive personal insurance to cover any unforeseen circumstances.
