Aruba semi-sub cruise from Palm Beach

We had a great time. Our guide was full of amazing stories, facts and statistics about Aruba, the ocean, the history of the shipwreck Antilla. She’s very knowledgeable about marine life, the environment and the importance of care and respect for the sea and wildlife and the beautiful island of Aruba. The guide and captain and crew member did a fantastic job, kept us safe and well prepared for our journey on 2 ships. The views were spectacular. The ships were clean and functioning very well. It was reasonably priced and on time. A pleasure for all of us.

Nice but too expensive...

Nice but too expensive for what you get. The crew was very informative. And some of what they show you is hard to see.
