The team was great and very accommodating. My family and I had already gone to Big Lagoon and so we asked to change it to a different location which the team kindly did! Big shoutout to Nonoy and the boat team who made our tour so much fun! My family and I had already gone on a sharer tour so it was nice to experience a private tour - and this specific private tour was definitely worth it! The food they prepared was also amazing and they had all the equipment like kayaks, snorkelling gear, bean bags and a speaker! Would definitely recommend!

My boyfriend and I did the private tour around El Nido. It was great! We loved kayaking in the lagoons and snake island was beautiful! Thank you to the team for putting together a great trip! The beanbag / sun loungers on the top deck of the boat were also a great touch!
