Best value. Great people. Great for small groups :) they catered the trip to how we’re were feeling and what we wanted to do most. Made us feel very safe with no worries coming into the water. Super professional and fun guides during the whole process.

This was a once in a lifetime experience! Not only will I cherish the memories, but the tour guide also captured pictures for us. They made us feel very comfortable with the experience, and I felt very knowledgeable before getting in the water with these giant fish! Although I used a patch for sea sickness, I still got sick towards the end. The guides took great care of me, and I was able to rally and enjoy a tasty lunch in a picturesque location. I highly recommend this adventure!
