Review for: Snorkeling + Island Hopping [With Hotel Transfer]

Very nice and cosy island hopping experience. The boat ride was smooth and windy, the weather was very good that day. Both Sapi and Manukan Island had very nice beach. The tour guide, Nanak, is very friendly and answered all our question, also helped everyone take care of their bags and things. The banana boat and snorkelling are must go. Managed to see quite a few species of fish, snorkelling is limited to the areas near the shore but can spot quite a lot of fish. The sun is very strong so must apply sunscreen to prevent sunburn. Time was also sufficient and ended quite early at 3pm.

Review for: Snorkeling + Island Hopping

I didn't request hotel pick-up, but I didn't get a call the day before, so I went straight to the pier the next day and was very flustered because I couldn't find the guide. Fortunately, I was able to join the team safely with the help of people around me, and our guide was so kind that the flustered feeling I had in the morning disappeared and I had a very enjoyable trip. He speaks a little Korean and everyone is very kind. I had a lot of fun riding the boat to the island as if I was riding an amusement ride, and snorkeling and sea walking were also new experiences~^^

Great day out tour on 2 Islands, well organised with transfers. Could have had a bit more information from the guide as to the walk around Sapi, “how long it takes to do and the path is a circle around the island” Still really enjoyed the day.

Review for: Snorkeling + Island Hopping [With Hotel Transfer]

my daughter and I really enjoyed our island hopping tour to Sapi and Manukan Islands. Our tour guide Nanak was very nice and knowledgeable about the two islands. He also watched our belongings for us which allowed us to snorkel and enjoy our time in the water worry free. Both islands were beautiful, but we enjoyed our time on Sapi Island the most. The water was great for snorkeling at Sapi Island. We also enjoyed our buffet lunch on the island and Nanak even came over to make sure we saw the humongous lizard that came by for a visit. Manukan Island was beautiful. But, the water wasn’t as clear in the snorkeling area so we didn’t see many fish. However, we did see a few black tip sharks in the water near the jetty as we were leaving. Overall, I enjoyed our and would recommend this tour to others.

Awesome island experience, especially on Sapi. We got to Sapi early before 10/11am when the crowds started coming in and it started raining. Best island vibe compared to west coast Malaysia islands. Manukan was fine, it rained, meh

The tour guide proactively contacted us via WhatsApp the day before, which was very thoughtful. On the day of the tour, they actively guided us. Although it was a group tour, with about 20 people, the guide proactively took care of everyone and helped watch over our luggage and bags. Although the tour was in English, it wasn't difficult, and general communication was easy. Snorkeling was awesome, but be careful of sunburn! Remember to bring a waterproof phone pouch.

We had so much fun enjoying the incredibly refreshing scenery. The banana boat and parasailing activities were the best! Thank you to our guide, Nanak, for his kind consideration and explanations. We'll definitely have to come back again. I think my family and loved ones would love it here. Highly recommend it!

The tour guide is good, but you have to wish and pray for good weather.... even the island is raised with red flag, the tour company wouldnt want to cancel the trip. we stay in the island while heavy rain and all water sports are prohibited.
