What a great day — Manuel was nice enough to pick us up from our hotel, he spoke well and made us feel at ease. Once on the boat, Luis and Fransisco were amazing and full of knowledge. We caught a 3ft barracuda and a 4.5ft Wahoo. Luis then proceeded to filet the fish for us, and Manuel had plenty of wonderful recommendations on restaurants that would cook it for us. On our drive back to our hotel, Manuel showed us the best local spots for various types of food, and produce. Overall a fantastic day and can’t recommend this company enough! Five stars all around.

We had reserved a day of fishing, four hours, and on suggestion from Manny we changed our day to one day earlier due to weather. This was a good recommendation as the weather on our scheduled day was very rough! Anyway, we were picked up on the beach and out we went. Our fishing adventure started off trolling at first where we hooked and landed a Barracuda! It was then decided to bottom fish in the middle part of our trip and this was very successful. We hooked and landed 13 more fish including another Barracuda that was over 4’ in length. Needless to say we all had a great time and experience with the crew of the boat Lena!
Thanks again Manny for setting us up!

We booked a fishing trip pretty last minute with Manny and were very impressed with the service! Manny was quick to respond, communication was no problem, and after getting skunked trolling, offered to bring us back out the next day to do some bottom fishing, but were lucky enough to catch a nice wahoo trolling on the way to the spot and a bunch of red snapper! Was an awesome experience and I highly recommend Manny Tours for fishing around Akumal! Would book again in a heartbeat!

Travelling to Rivera Maya, Mexico on holiday I decided to try the fishing in the area s I always try to do on holiday where ever I go. Having the the Fishingbooker app it’s a great way to find out who is doing angling trips in any area. I had asked the hotel for fishing trips nearby and was directed to a very expensive trip. So I tried Fishing booker and got a list of boats nearby. I chose Pio’s tours because of the price, nearby location, reviews and size of the boat. Straight away I had great communication with Manuel the owner and within 5 mins I was booked on a 4 hours trip for around £300(up to 6 people could of come on the trip with me, for the same price) but I fished alone. Not knowing my way around Rivera Maya I asked Manuel if he could pick me up for the same price, which he did better than that, he picked me up from my beach at my resort. Promptly Fernando and Freddo arrive to pick me up at 9am on the dot. The boat itself wasn’t the big game fishing boats I have used before but a more personal 25ft basic but well equipped. Off we set into the blue and within 10/15 mins I was wetting a line. Almost instantly I was in to some fish with guidance of how to expect the fish to bite( I am an experienced sea fisherman but local knowledge is key). To start I was catching Strawberry snapper and array of other small fish. With no fish finder it was local knowledge of Fernando that put us on the fish. We bottom fished at the start and after an hour or so my rod bent it to a better fish resulting in around a 15lb red grouper, that was it, it’s was all big fish from then on, lots of trigger fish at good sizes fishing at different depths. Fernando asked if I would like to start to trolling and again I was into fish straight away with a large barracuda as Freddo set up the out riggers. Fish were biting almost all the time snapping at the fish on the out riggers, another big barracuda soon came with blue fin tuna and yellow tails all taking the bait. I finished with about 30 fish in 4hrs. What a great time fishing with Fernando and Freddo it passed all my expectations. I can recommend Pio’s tour so much for the friendly atmosphere and knowledge on the boat. 10 days after my holiday I am writing this review with a smile, still on my face. Don’t book those expensive massive fishing boat, book the personnel touch and CATCH.

Great day and nice 25ft Panga boat. The waves and swells were nothing in our control so our three kids under 10 did get sea sick unfortunately. However, the captain and crew were very helpful in providing water for the children. We caught 2 Mahi-Mahi and 2 Barracudas. All with ease and even the kids were able to reel some in too. We saw some Turtles as well while trolling. It was an overall great experience and we would highly recommend Pio’s Tours for any avid fisherman or family looking to Deep sea fish.
