    This was such a lovely trip - staff were polite & friendly fro the pick up at the hotel until I returned after. The boat itself was comfortable and it gave a beautiful window to sea life, with lots of fish to see of every shape & size, to the huge variety of corals. I could have sat there just looking forever! There was an opportunity to snorkel for those who wanted, including some brave young children! I would happily go again in the future!

    Views were great Guide explained that most of others on excursion were German speakers so he’d speak to them first then tell me separately in English. After telling me that he never spoke English throughout the whole excursion until it was time to ask for tips for boat staff just before exiting boat.

    It was longer than we thought. Details said it was a 3 hour trip and it was nearly 5.

    Bus drive was a very scary experience. Not enough seats on the boat and the seats were spinning around the whole time (if you were lucky enough to get one) Lots of waiting around as your guide chatted to other people

    Very good views and would recommend. It isn't a glass bottomed boat! It's a semi submarine with glass on the sides when you go downstairs. It isn't a tour for claustrophobics. Maybe the tour needs renaming? We were much later getting back than expected. Not sure why. There was a lot of standing around as the guide seemed to have problems getting tickets for the tour.
