If u imagine a boat that is rushing to take you to places while doing other trips for others as well then this is it. Nothing that say it is included is really... everything is a joke for the money you pay and the so called services they offer...
You have no water.
You have no special snorkeling.
They pick you up on one point and drop you off in another where you have to walk into small beach jungle so that you can reach the road.
The lunch was terrible took over 1 hour to serve some chicken and we were afraid to eat the fish when we saw that there is no fridge and they keep the cut fish in the sea by the shore! Of corse there is no "wide selection" of alcohol they tried to give us beer and the children had one sprite and that's it! Simple water was absent the entire trip!
On the island were there was the dinner there is no bathroom. We stayed there 4 hours while the boat was making other non private trips for other tourists - private boat tour has a new meaning and tripadvisor supports this! They shouldn't be allowed to post excursions!
