Guide was fabulous - informative, interesting and fun
We went on a boat tour and it ended up being one of the absolute highlights of our trip! The scenery was beautiful, the water was calm, and the pace was just right, but what really made it unforgettable was our guide, Cliff. He was knowledgeable, funny, and full of great stories that brought the whole experience to life. You could tell he genuinely loves what he does, and it made such a difference. If you’re in the area, don’t miss this tour and definitely hope you get Cliff as your guide!
