Everything about this excursion was fantastic. The workers, boat, and activities were great. The timing of each activity worked out well. Loved having various levels of the boat to hangout on. Tito and his crew are top notch. Incredible value for the price. Plan for a full day.

Everything worked out perfectly!
All very friendly and open-minded.
It was a pleasure to experience such a well organized troupe:-)
With all the plastic waste from cups for drinks, you should think about something...

Vielen Dank für Ihr tolles Feedback!
Es freut uns sehr, dass alles perfekt organisiert war und Sie sich wohlgefühlt haben.
Ihr Hinweis zum Plastikmüll ist absolut verständlich – wir sehen das ebenfalls als wichtigen Punkt und werden dies an die zuständigen Stellen weitergeben.
Wir freuen uns, Sie bald wieder bei uns begrüßen zu dürfen!

Pick-up on time. Swimming stops on two beaches on Giftun Island (Orange Bay and Hula Hula) and a snorkeling or swimming stop in the open sea. The boat was comfortable and not overcrowded. It would be better if smoking was prohibited on board.
Orange Bay is very beautiful, but very busy. This is really mass tourism. No other thing to do during the 2 stops on the island than to swim and take the Sun and some pictures of the seaside.There is nothing to visit on Giftun Island; it is only a big arid pebble. There are no walking trails and tourists are confined to beach facilities.
FYI, there are many excursions on Viator to what are presented as different islands (Hula Hula Island, Paradise Island, Eden Island,...), but do not be caught. In fact, it is exactly the same place south of Giftun Island. It’s just the name of several beach clubs located next to each other, but it’s actually always the same excursion and make one enough.

Merci beaucoup d’avoir pris le temps de partager votre retour détaillé 😊
Nous sommes ravis de savoir que vous avez apprécié la ponctualité, les arrêts snorkeling, le confort du bateau ainsi que le repas.
Concernant vos remarques, nous tenons à préciser que les arrêts se font dans la zone protégée de l’île de Giftun, où les activités sont volontairement limitées à la baignade, le snorkeling et la détente sur la plage afin de préserver l’environnement naturel.
Pour les différents noms des plages, il s’agit de clubs de plage distincts situés dans la même zone marine, chacun avec ses propres installations et sa gestion.
Nous prenons également bonne note de votre remarque concernant le tabagisme à bord et la transmettrons aux responsables afin d’améliorer l’expérience à l’avenir.

Great trip. Everything worked out great. Picked up from the hotel on time, up on the great, clean, big boat. Were about 40 people, but went very well. 1 hour drive to Orange Bay Island,
(seen dolphins on the way) 1.5 hours stay, then on to the snorkel stop, then lunch on board and on to the island of Hula Hula. 1 hour stay and back with great sunset. Just beautiful ☺️

Boat very well and a great crew full of spirit and attentive
Very decent meals and unlimited drinks
Remember to take cash because everything is cash on the islands
Too bad there isn’t more time for snorkelling 🙄
