Overall I liked it. Small group, on a speedboat, really friendly guides on the boat and nature is really crazy beautiful even if you have already been at the Caribbean before. There are several stops (tiny island with a fort, snorkeling at another tiny island, party island cholon, and lastly Baru). Cholon is absolutely terrible, it’s a shame how this beautiful spot is milked by party boats and people eating and drinking from overpriced menus in the water. Music is extremely loud, it’s really anything but tasteful and I’d avoid it at all cost unless you’re a freshman in college and dirty raeggeton is your thing. The dubious and aggressive guides at the fort will force you to pay tip for a very basic, self explanatory tour. Apart from that, the water, the other stops and the nature is absolutely beautiful and a must see, if only it were less commercialized.

worst experience of our trip, be aware of these scam artists. the day before our activity they wats app-ed me saying there was a time discrepancy and the activity will start at 2 PM instead of 6 am. After we got picked up by a small car without AC ( purchased was transportation in a comfortable bus with AC) they started driving for almost 1 hr (promised meeting location was 15 min from our hotel ) when we asked why we are driving so far they said the activity location has changed to Baru. when we got to the beach we were placed on a beach bed where we started getting harassed by the locals selling thing without taking no for an answer. They charged us 400,00.00 pesos for a grilled chicken lunch and fries ( free lunch was promised ) then when we inquired about the Rosario island tour and snorkeling, they said the tour has changed to a plankton tour which will start at 6:00 PM. when we refused to go and said that wasn't what we signed up for, they refused to return us to the hotel.

A great experience with a fun guide and good group of people. An ideal way to be able to visit many beautiful places during one day, with snorkeling being the highlight. However it felt very disorganised with much confusion amongst the group and different groups doing similar tours
