Excellent trip from start to finish. Beautiful coves for kayaking & snorkeling and the lunch was tasty too. All 3 guides were excellent, highly recommended 👌

We saw some reviews of the activity which were glowing and so decided that it would be something totally different for us to do on our holiday. This was above and beyond expectations! The guides are friendly and clearly experienced. We were provided with our dry bag and buoyancy aids and ensured we all had suitable headwear and provided secure space for storage. The guides take photos during the trip and provide a free link for after so there is no need for a phone/camera. There was a safety brief and warm up and then we set off, plenty opportunity for water to be taken on and interesting facts about the bays and caves we stopped at. Lunch provided was of good quality and whilst that was prepared one guide took us swimming and snorkelling (kit provided by guides). All in all the ultimate highlight of a Rhodes holiday full of highlights! Would highly recommend!
