Wonderful Trip! - We covered a lot of ground with this trip! On the way, we stopped at a Hindu temple. Then we stopped where there were wild monkeys running about. The meal at the River was fresh and fantastic! The boat ride was very peaceful - both the fireflies and the blue tears were very cool. Silva was a great guide- very hospitable and the time passed with pleasant conversation. 10/10!

Great time - The visit to the temple and monkey feeding was an unexpected pleasure, the firefly’s was ok the Blue Tears was fantastic. The guide Mani was very good, the only down side was the bus was very very hot and uncomfortable with little air conditioning and 10 people crowded in.

Perfect half-day tour - The temple and the stop to feed the monkeys were really nice. Afterwards we went to a nice restaurant to have dinner, the food was delicious. The boattour in the end was great, especially the part were we saw the fireflies. It was an awesome experience.

Fireflies - The tour was wonderful and so was our guide. The fireflies and plankton were amazing. My kids really loved feeding the monkeys as well.

Nice night tour - This tour was good for anyone who hasn't seen Fireflys at night or a Bioluminescent bay (Blue Tears). The initial visit to the Hindu temple was nice, but unfortunately, you are not allowed to take pictures inside this beautiful carved temple. The second stop to visit the Monkeys was entertaining because they like to eat and will jump on you in a playful way to get the food. Most folks were amused by their playfulness, but you are told to feed the Monkeys at your own risk.

Mixed review - The Indian temple is beautiful and the fireflies are magical. Blue tears are a non event. Restaurant recommended for dinner was terrible - they forgot to bring half our order and by the time we followed up it was too late. Food that did come was luke warm. LG driver was very nice and knowledgeable if you asked him questions.

Meh - The bioluminescent photoplankton are not nearly as active as these photos. Very unimpressive, especially compared to my experience in Fajardo, Puerto Rico

Horrible and unprofessional - So i booked the tour and requested a pickup from the hotel, the first thing i noticed there were no communication or any information of when and who gonna pick you up from your destination, all you know is the tour starts at 4pm and you just have to magically be there, after a few hours before the tour starts? I get a message from the driver saying i either bring a person with me or he post ponds it for tomorrow? Doesn't make any sense, and there's zero communication or explaintion, they ended up cancelling on me, and i wasted my whole day for nothing. If you are reading this as a tourist please don't bother
