From start to the finish we had a great experience. The bus trip was exceptional, the guide as well. The 12 km speed boat ride was impressive.

We really enjoyed it. The bus A/C didn’t seem to work well so it was a little hot in the bus. Also not very comfortable. But the overall we really enjoyed it. The island is beautiful. It was really cool to go through the mangroves. The buffet lunch was actually pretty good. We also stopped at a cigar farm. If you don’t smoke cigars then this might n out be something you enjoy (that specific shop). But again, overall we liked it. And we had a great time. Wish we could spend more time on the island and maybe a little longer time going through the mangroves. Also maybe giving us time to hang out in the other beach would be cool.
