Basically take you to an island and charge you 15 sol to get back ohh plus tips....

CHAD_C, Dec 2023
They take you to a small island where they split the group up into 2-3 person groups then you are told that the local who is standing next to you depends on you and your money to live. they then try and sell you cheap items that you can buy anywhere for inflated prices. Then your told to go to another boat than the one you came on. There you are charged 15 sol regardless, then kids are forced to sink a few songs you can see they don't want to. Then the kid stands in front of you until you give them money. then they take you to a restaurant on another island and ask you to buy food. then you first boat shoes up and back to the dock. Where they flag down any random cabb for you and but you on your way.. All completely true!
