“Great fun tour - We had the best captain Kenny he was fun great music information on the area and was great at finding dolphins and turtles. I am not good at snorkelling but the water was so clear it was fabulous. Kenny was so kind. I have fibromyalgia and find getting on and off boats tricky but that lovely man helped me at every turn and ensured it was a wonderful day to remember. Vanilla Rum amazing and the BBQ was just right. I went walking by the water on one island we stopped at and it was amazing I could see beautiful fish and star fish it was excellent and my husband and I even as older travellers found it to be worth every penny.” - Reviewed on 2024-10-05
