About Barna Takats

Barna grew up in Hungary, dreaming about the Jungle and Ocean since he was five years old. He recieved the "Living Planet" book by David Attenborough at the age of six and from that moment he knew what he really wanted to do. 

But of course life has it's mysterious ways, so Barna ended up with a Masters degree in Sociology and worked in the media for a few years. When not working in an office in Hungary he travelled around the world visiting remote destinations as India, Tibet or Bangladesh always looking for the best Wildlife Encounters.
​
Finally in 2010 Barna decided he had enough of the double life and left Hungary for good. He travelled to Africa first and after a few month wondering around hesettled in Mozambique for a while where he worked as a Divemaster. After Africa he left for Southeast Asia to look for Sumatran Tigers in the Jungle to visit the Dragons of Komodo and to dive in Thailand and Bali.

Barna arrived to Mexico in 2011 and lives with his wife Elizabeth in Playa del Carmen ever since. He is working as a Nature Guide around Mexico and as a Diving Instructor and Cavern Diving Guide (PADI and TDI).
He has extensive knowledge about the local wildlife above and under the water and he is organizing and guiding tours all over Mexico. He is specializing in what he calls "Real Wildife Encounters" - getting as close as possible and spending the maximum amount of time with the animals to guarantee the best experience, but doing this always without disturbing or harming the wildlife in any ways.

Since he travelled around the world to get up-close with wildlife Barna perfectly understands what you are planning, and thanks to this understanding he can provide you with the best Wildlife Viewing tours in the area. 
Barna assisted multiple times with filming crews and professional photographers, so if you are looking for a local nature guide who can also help with your pro equipment, who can suggest filming locations and get you to the best spots at the best time of the day you are looking at the right place.
