In the Small Lagoon we were the only boat which I do not think happens very often in other places. Also the guide and entire crew was great, working hard and making sure we have a great day, whicb we certainly did!”

“I don’t complain easily, but I was really deeply disappointed with this tour. The app clearly states what is and isn’t included, but that turned out to be completely false. You arrive at the meeting point in the morning, and the first thing they do is charge you for renting a snorkel. How is that not included in a snorkeling tour?

I contacted them before posting a negative review, but they kept stringing me…”
