Best island hopping adventure

This was so well organized. We loved the timely scheduling. We had four opportunities to swim and snorkle. The crew was fantastic. Our guide, Cooper, was energetic, fun , thorough in his explanations and so organized. He had plenty of drinks and snacks for us. Cooper was so fun. It was a fantastic, long day

Perfect visit to beautiful islands in one dayPerfect visit to beautiful islands in one day. The trip was well organized.

Perfect visit to beautiful islands in one day. The trip was well organized. Our “purple team” guide Naim was very attentive and helpful. The captain was very skilled. The whole crew did a great job. The islands and nature are very beautiful and worth visiting, but the only thing that might have spoiled the mood of some vacationers was that the snorkeling near the beach was interrupted by the midday low tide. Since there were other snorkeling opportunities during the trip, hopefully this was not a big problem for anyone. The food that was brought with us for vegetarians was delicious and the fruit provided for snacks on the boat was perfect. Cold drinks were also available on the boat all day!

Packed like sardines

We were so packed inside the boat we could not move. Staff very friendly and eager to help (that’s why the 3 stars) In order to visit lots of islands, the time was not enough to enjoy them. Better to visit less and enjoy them more.
