Exciting and enjoyable trip - We had a great, adventurous time tailored to our needs during this private tour. Our knowledgeable guide (and a driver at the same time) Mustafa was incredibly kind, flexible and professional throughout the day. He provided us with lots of valuable insights about the island’s history, culture and wildlife. We are very grateful to Mustafa for making this day truly special to us. He even drove back to our hotel to hand in my phone, which I forgot to take with me at the end of the tour (as I often do…), which I am forever grateful to him and to the local Viator agent, who acted swiftly and efficiently, as soon as we realised I had left my phone in the car. Many thanks Mustafa and Viator!

Brilliant Tour of the Wild South. Fantastic Guide. - I would have given this trip 5 stars except the food at the restaurant was terrible. Our driver and guide Musafar was amazing and had a wealth of knowledge about the history and present day of the island. We didn’t get to visit two of the destinations on the itinerary as the road was closed for one and the other there wasn’t any parking available but that wasn’t a problem as our guide took us to other spots of equal beauty. If you are lucky enough to get him then I can almost guarantee you won’t be disappointed with the care and attention to details he gives you, can’t praise him enough. I can’t fault anything about this trip other than the restaurant experience so please Saga choose a different place for fellow travellers to eat.

Tourist TRAP - The buoy activity pulled by the Boat was done in a hurry and the parasailing activity could not be supposedly because of the wind we were told you will see on the Île au Cerf except that the Île au Cerf service provider did not have nothing wanted to hear so 3 places lost and not refunded. To avoid
