Had an incredible time on the mangrove kayaking and Blue Cave snorkelling tour with Adventure Pipi! Originally, the snorkelling was planned for Phantom Island, but due to weather conditions, the team switched to the Blue Cave, and it was absolutely stunning! Our guides: Ryu, Tomoya, Tom & Diego, were professional, caring, and made the day unforgettable. They gave clear instructions in English and took amazing photos for us. Both activities were a blast, with breathtaking scenery. Highly recommend this tour for an adventurous and memorable experience!
The morning mangrove tour was very chill. The guide conducts the tour in English, and there is also a friend from mainland China who speaks Chinese and can communicate with you. In the afternoon, due to weather conditions, we couldn't go to Dream Island, so we changed it to another beach snorkeling trip. Although it was a little disappointing that we couldn't go to Dream Island, we still saw a lot of fish underwater, which was very beautiful. Equipment: The weather was a bit cold, so they provided diving wetsuits for snorkeling, which was very thoughtful. Instructor: Speaks English throughout, but it's easy to communicate even if your English isn't fluent.
Hina, the snorkeling guide, and Makoto, the paddleboarding guide, were both excellent, enthusiastic, and professional. Although we were disappointed not to visit Phantom Island, Osaki Beach was also fantastic, with great visibility. It was interesting to feel the water temperature change from cold to warm in the sea. The paddleboarding trip from the mangroves to the estuary was very safe, with calm waters.
Sebastian is a great guide and made sure we were comfortable and entertained. All the equipment in the necessary was provided by the tour and the pickup from the hotel made everything all the more convenient.
Very good experience, the tour guides are very nice, Diego is very patient in teaching us SUP, and the English communication is very smooth, Aoi is Japanese but can also communicate in Chinese, which is very good! They also helped us take a lot of beautiful photos!
We had booked the canoe and snorkeling on Phantom Island’s day, unfortunately due to the weather we had to go snorkelling at the Blue Cave. The two sites, the mangroves and the Blue Cave are beautiful so we had a great time. I think that the day is very well suited for families with children or for people who are not very comfortable in canoeing and/or snorkeling, but don’t expect to travel many miles in a canoe or swim. The organization is very well done, the equipment is adapted and in very good condition,... but above all, we were lucky to have a great guide, a thousand thanks to Tom who has such a super positive energy, is very nice and funny, who speaks perfectly english, he gave everything to make sure we had great photos, so he was very involved in making sure we had a great day. Thanks again Tom !
Adventure PiPi's guides are excellent, demonstrating both professionalism and friendliness. Throughout the trip, they provided detailed introductions and explanations, reminding everyone how to appreciate the beauty of nature without disturbing the ecosystem. In addition to diligently looking after the safety of every group member, they also used their professional skills to help us capture many stunning photos of unique scenery that we couldn't have taken ourselves. Every trip with them is a happy and comfortable journey.
we enjoyed our day with adventure pipi! everything was every well organized, materials were good and team have provided briefing before each activity! even weather was not the best, team made very enjoyable!
The mangrove forest kayaking and snorkeling were absolutely fantastic. Even though the weather wasn't great, Makoto-san's excellent guidance made it an unforgettable experience.
Really nice instructors Yuki and Akari. The snorkelling was amazing with really clear instructions and good safety precautions. The mangrove canoeing was really nice too! They also took pictures of us and sent us almost immediately. Highly recommend!
