@@HealthStudio23 thank you for your appreciation!

[@ExploratoryGlory]

Great video brother. Gotta love Bacalar

[@TobyNomad]

Thanks! Second Bacalar video “Out on the Water” coming out in a few hours, finishing it up now :))

[@patricialalone9654]

That fruit stand looks amazing!! And, you were really fortunate to have seen those monkeys!!

[@TobyNomad]

Yes it was a wondrous tropical fruit stand like I’ve never seen before!! And I couldn’t believe the monkey family either!!! Would go there weekly if I lived down there!

[@jjg4608]

Wow!! Great video!! I think I might visit soon and now planning on going to Chacchoben... Thanks for the great video!!

[@TobyNomad]

Thanks for your comment, I love hearing from you. I love Chacchoben! Just try to time it when there is no cruise ship in Mahahual :)

[@aurylldimanlig7654]

Great video! My family is planning to go to Bacalar in February. I will try to follow your itinenary. I will look for the fruit stand as well.❤❤❤

[@TobyNomad]

It’s the best! Pedro Santos is the little town, you have to drive through it to get to Bacalar from Tulum

[@ZoilaChuc]

Gran video bro

[@TobyNomad]

Gracias!!! Como lo encontraste?

[@max199511]

Thanks for this video, I’m going to Bacalar (as well as Merida and Campeche) in May and have been watching a lot of videos like this and it has taken me a long time to find a travel vloger who’s not a total douche. Finally just a down to earth guy in a band t-shirt exploring, like me.

[@TobyNomad]

Hahahaha how did I miss this comment! I love it. Yeah a lot of vloggers are all about them. I’m just trying to inspire people and be honest at the same time.

Buen video bro , y mas con Diana de acompañante ..necesitas venir a mayacala

[@TobyNomad]

Definitivamente quiero ir a Mayacala!!!

[@anissadavis2011]

So THOSE ruins are in Bacalar? Amazing!

[@TobyNomad]

40 minute drive from town. Very close to the northern part of the lake. Well worth it if you time it for when there are no cruise ship tours.

[@anissadavis2011]

@TobyNomad Awesome! Bacalar is my next destination. Been from Cancun down to Akumal & Tulum. Pacific side from Puerto Escondido up to Huatulco. Then inland all over Chiapas and Oaxaca states but there's something about the Caribbean side of MX that calls me.

[@MargaritaLopez-flor]

Nice video, thanks for the information. You mentioned Piña miel, which is a very sweet pineapple; miel means honey in spanish.

[@TobyNomad]

Yeah! It’s the best kind of pineapple!

[@daxc1972]

Diane telling it like it is.....My type of person.

[@TobyNomad]

Yes!!

[@myleneavend]

Thanks for this video. I’m planning to do a trip to Bacalar and the ruins. Your trip is my kind of vacation too, not the touristy noisy party. I hope they don’t turn Bacalar like Tulum.

[@TobyNomad]

Oh cool! Hope you get the ruins on a day with no cruise ship tours, in that case it’s divine!

[@lesleyannwatt6120]

I saw my friend Diane!!

[@TobyNomad]

She’s the star of Bacalar

[@snakewoman8]

Yes you did!

[@robinvandamme9529]

Hi there! That fruit shop you’ve showed us, do you know the exact location of it or is it that obvious to find? Cheers mate

[@TobyNomad]

Well, almost exact. It’s in the small town of Pedro Santos. Right on the highway. Near the speed bumps.

[@kristinagreiner8281]

Timothee chalamet! ✈️

[@TobyNomad]

So nice to meet you! :)
