Views were amazing. Food was nice. Pickup and drop service was very professional and comfortable. Guide was polite and without asking clicked my photos since I was solo. Yatch was comfortable and clean. Itinerary was a bit short especially the time on the island. Slide on the yatch was super fun, free paddleboarding and kayaking was fun too. Snorkeling spots were very calm and pristine. Overall recommended.

Nice private boat trip. The boat is nice and clean but was a bit bumpy because of the big waves, not as stable as the catamaran. Guide and staff were nice and friendly. Half day tour felt a bit rushed. Recomended if prefer a private experience.

Very nice experience! Everything was perfect, from the transport transfer, the yacht itself, staffs and guides, food and also the time spent on the island. We had dinner on the island instead on the yacht but its okay more convenient, the food was okay too. The sunset views were beautiful! Big applause to all the guides, they took photos of us anytime and the results were amazing! 👍🏼👏🏻🥰 Would love to try the full day tour next time!

This is a great option if you don’t want to wake up early and want to have a lazy cruise. Catamaran we had was huge, well equipped and not crowded. Snorkelling was the only not worth it part of the journey since we were snorkelling in the place where you don’t see anything. We had fun with the water slide and snorkelling on the island. Food was served on the boat, very tasty and good choice, snacks and drinks were also served for free during the cruise. After the sunset we had a very fun party and overall we liked this experience very much. Huge pluses: comfortable boat, great staff and organisation, lazy journey and good food. It’s not for you if you want to spend a lot of time on islands or fan of snorkelling. It’s for you if you like sailing on a boat and enjoy the sea and sunsets ☺️We had our 3 y o on this trip and he also enjoyed (even had a good nap 😴)

My spouse and I participated. On the boat, we were the only Japanese group, along with one Korean family, one group of Indonesian people, and several Chinese groups. We were divided into two guide groups: a Chinese-speaking guide group and an English-speaking guide group. The guides were very friendly and helpful. There were two meals on the boat, a lunch buffet and sushi rolls in the evening. Also, during the evening meal, we had the fish we caught prepared as sashimi. All the dishes were very delicious 😋. The boat was clean and very nice! We made really good memories! Thank you.

I highly recommend this tour. My guide George was very helpful and attentive. Since I was the only English speaking customer on the boat ( all the rest were Chinese:) he provided excellent guidance. I guess they are mainly focused on Chinese clientele, so check if there will be other English speaking guests if you don’t want to listen to Chinese pop songs for hours… I was fine with it but you may not :) Catamarans could become quite uncomfortable when the weather is windy and sea is rough.. So check the weather before booking since our ride was not the one I have expected. The catamaran was spacious and clean. The captain and the crew were friendly. Snorkeling part of the trip was nice and fun.
