Have a nice boat trip
A nice boat trip (with nice lunch ) to 2 islands that we could visit freely. There was no tour

Great trip advisor
The tour guide was nice, helped us through everything, and she pulled through with what is promised in the tour. The music inside the boat ride was very nice too, totally recommend.

Nice trip.
The boat departed an hour later, at 10:15 instead of 9:15. Everything else is fine.

Beautiful, very friendly, a must-experience.
The organizers are very nice. The pickup and drop-off from/to the hotel worked perfectly. And the boat ride was great; we were also able to see dolphins. The islands are a must-see, beautiful and affordable.
