Nice people but not well organised

Joe_S, Feb 2026

I really wanted to give this tour 5 stars because the people are really nice and they really go the extra mile to try and please. But…it’s not very well organised and there’s a lot of waiting around. In all honesty a cruise organised excursion may be better for cruise passengers.

Great tour

Dicken_L, Feb 2025

Our guide nicknamed Brian gave us an excellent tour . Good information is provided throughout. Courteous and helpful. Driver was very pleasant as well . Great value when compared to our cruise organized tour. Highly recommended

Underground cave excursion

Victor_L, Mar 2024

Excellent service as picked up and drop off to port gates. Our guide Roman was really friendly and informative. The underground cave was just amazing and the buffet meal afterwards super tasty. I would definitely recommend booking if you're on a cruise.

Princesa beauty!

Pierre_F, Jan 2024

Great tour to the underground River, Vel and Xander were wonderful and very informative. Vel was gracious to provide me with Wi-Fi hotspot. Totally recommend this tour!
