Smooth from start to finish… Following our punctual pickup, our driver took us to the National Park and we visited five beautiful and diverse spots… We particularly enjoyed the snorkeling and the mangrove area… Felt like we did not waste the time and the itinerary made use of the available time in the most efficient way possible. Would recommend this trip to anyone!

This tour is very great! I liked it very much. Definitely worth your money! I have never been diving before so I really enjoyed it and now I know I will do it more often in the future I also really liked White Island

Brilliant day out ..staff were amazing the food was lovely and the fish and coral reef were stunning… White Island was really crowded so a bit disappointed but still worth a 5/5

We did a private tour and everything was good! I do recommend this excursion
