Went on this tour with wife. I wouldn't recommend it, and here's why. The tour agency does not provide the services themselves. It just organises the tour logistics amongst the various service providers. Arriving at Moalboal, the driver hands you off to one of the dive shops for the sardines dive. After the dive, you are handed off to a boat captain to take you to Pescador Island for snorkelling. When you return, driver returns you to hotel. For the sardines dive, we rented a GoPro and the dive guide was on hand to help take great pics and vids for us (1 star). For the snorkel off Pescador Island, we were given only mask/snorkel and life vest (no flippers). Scuba divers had guides. Snorkellers were on our own, with just the boat captain and one crew to keep an eye out for us. The corals around Pescador Island were destroyed by the Dec’21 typhoon. You'll only see small fishes. This island should be taken off from tours until the corals recover. Just dive/snorkel at Moalboal instead.
