Princess Island, especially the big island, is worth a day trip. Do it on your own with a local ferry. Our boat was OK, but the only seats were free-standing tables and chairs for the lunch (and presumably for evening dinner cruises). No very comfortable, especially for someone 60+, for 4 hours R/T.
Lunch also mediocre: boring salad, decent meatball (patty), tasteless chicken and bland rice. Much more interesting options on the island(s).
What really ticked me off is the tour added on a leather "fashion show" at the end that was not on our purchased itinerary that my wife and I wanted to skip (as did others). I asked our guide about just taking a taxi to our hotel, and he said that none were convenient. Yet right across from our pier was a taxi stand, and we grabbed one on our own.
