The whole trip was great, during the trip you got some information about the region. One stop was ideal for snorkeling, the other was at a beach with various bars and restaurants. Great value for money! There was lunch on the ship, which was included in the price, and you could buy drinks and coffee throughout the tour. There was also a toilet on board (typical ship toilet). The staff were also very nice. I was there at the end of September, I can imagine that it could get a bit crowded on board in midsummer. I can still highly recommend it 😊
