We absolutely loved our experience! We decided to do this last minute and funny enough were leaning to do it elsewhere in the island but everything was booked. We finally went with this one and everything lined up perfectly. Location, weather, moon phase and especially the tour guides. We cannot say how amazing they were. Not only are they genuine people, they really work hard to educated and accommodate. They made everything about the experience worth it. We are already planning our next booking on our next visit. The chiliboats were the absolute best way to do this, you are comfortable and practical. You can see the water illuminating as you pedal and even have a moment to sit on the side and touch the water. Not to mention the beautiful star gazing. 9pm tour was definitely worth it! Thank you Marie and Wallie, your story was inspiring and you both were great. We wish you all the success and happiness.

We had a great tour! The chiliboats were very easy to use and got you so far with least effort. I loved that you could sit at the edge of your boat and play in the water to really see the bioluminescence up close. It was a great tour and very informative as well!
