The tour was so amazing and so exciting! My parents and I were really enjoying it and wanted to do it again. The captain's sailing skill is great, and has big passion on it. He made sure we were all looked after and also had a big fun time. The other two staff were so friendly and so helpful, the gentleman helped us to get back to the ship to get two more lifejacket for my parents when we were snorkeling, they were so patient and took care of everyone. The tour was very informative and well organised. The food was very yummy. We had a wonderful time with them!
