We were picked up from our hotel and taken to a meeting point with people who were also on other trips, where we were divided on the boats and while waiting to leave we had a buffet breakfast. The boat trip lasted about 1h then we did a bit of walking up to the viewpoint (tiring but worth it). Those who didn't want to come could stop at the beach. After that we did kayaking and buffet lunch on another Island then some beach relaxation. Finally we went to emerald lake and then to snorkel. A special mention to our guide, Ken, who was wonderful - he explained the tour itinerary in great detail and also how to kayak or use the snorkel mask. He was available to take pictures of everyone and above all he proved enthusiastic throughout the excursion and was able to convey his enthusiasm to us participants as well. Super!

Impeccable organization Respected timing Pick-up and return to the hotel by minibus Breakfast and Meals, cold drinks on board the speedboat Superb marine park and stops in breathtaking spots. Kayaking and snorkeling supervised by pros Explanations from the very reassuring group leader In short, we recommend

Great day, lots to do and staff were lovely! Speed boat is wild, so make sure to take travel sickness tablets. Nice food provided and lots of soft drinks/ water too. Climbs to the viewpoints are worth it for the views, so do them if you can!

Beautiful!!! It should only be taken into account that 7:30 is the time when they pick up the first person so the time when they arrive at your place can vary.

It was amazing. Super friendly staff and great tour in english. Ken, our guide was great and told us a lot about the areas we visited.
