It was an extremely wholesome experience! We made 7 dishes in ~1.5 hours and the host was extremely nice and kind. She made sure we were careful and also gave very clear instructions and knowledge. The food we cooked was beyond delicious and she asked us about our diet and preferences prior to the activity so that she can prepare the kitchen accordingly. Highly recommend and definitely would do again

What an incredible experience! A dream came true for me and my partner today, seeing all of the amazing marine life. We can’t believe how lucky we are. Also, the team member who spotted everything and was just as excited to see the animals as us, made our trip. Thank you so much for such a magical day ☺️

Tilan was our assigned driver for the day. He was polite, very punctual and drove safely. We reached the airport with plenty of time to spare. There was also a pit stop to use the restroom and have coffee if required.
