This was absolutely amazing. The hotel pick up and drop off is great cause you don’t have to worry about extra transport. The staff on the boat were so nice, the food was great and the overall energy was perfect. There were plenty of opportunities to get in the water (I didn’t do that but watched others enjoy their time in the water). As a solo traveller, I really enjoyed being able to connect with others but also have plenty of space and time to enjoy the views and scenario alone. I highly recommend this experience. 10/10

I booked this as a gift, it was perfect and definitely worth the cost in my eyes. The food and drinks were plenty too. the sightseeing and swimming opportunities were great. The people we went with were friendly which made the experience in itself. Would highly recommend.

I do not do reviews but i has to in case someone is thinking of purchasing this experience. Do it! 100% do it! The cleanliness on the boat, the food they prepare, the beautiful islands we pass by, the turquoise water, everything was perfect and better than expected.

Great tour! The company was very organized - we had a wonderful time. Definitely recommend during your trip!

Amazing experience with great food and a lot of sights
