We had a great time on this excursion! You get to see and do so many things. The guides on the boat were so fun and made the experience extra great. We wore our swimsuits and shorts/tanks over the top. By the end our clothes were wet. Bring towels, wear sandals. At Bamboo island we walked around, took pictures then sat on the beach for about 20 minutes. Beautiful island. We snorkeled twice and they took the boat up close to other locations and everyone took turns going to the front of the boat for pictures. At Maya beach you get off the boat and walk on a boardwalk in a line with many other people to see the beach. The beach is beautiful! Worth seeing but with this and all tours you just look for several minutes. You can’t go in the water past your shins for pictures. Was completely fine but just setting expectations. One in our group gets motion sickness and he took his normal meds and was fine. Definitely would recommend this tour. Long and busy day but so fun and so beautiful

Highly recommend! It was GREAT! Guides are so kind , cool and also funny! Good group, great vibes. The only downside was the lunch-we r on an island would be great to have grilled fish by the sea? Instead of that claustrophobic not so clean place. We appreciated the unlimited bottles of water on board and the amazing fruits served during the whole day. Also THE ice cream at the end. Thank u!

Our tour today was great, we had pete and Linda who were incredible, as well as the other crew on board. They guided us along and answered any questions we had. The trip is well organised and definitely worth the money! We were provided with fruit, juice and water all day, alongside music and laughter. I would highly recommend this trip!!

Very good organization, Arthon, the guide is very nice and with a lot of humor. Many free attentions on the boat: Water, fruits, ... Dream beaches, turquoise waters, ... Beware of the turbulence in the speed boat and expect a large number of tourists.

very coasy tour the tourguide was very nice and experieced. See saw alot of monkeys and they also came on our boad
