this is a great tour. if not because of the weather, I would have enjoyed it much more. it was raining the day before therefore couldn’t see much fish during snorkeling. but other than that, the kayak experience was good, the guides were friendly and helpful. and just some side info, most of the toilets at the islands don’t have fresh water. so need to set your expectations right.

Visiting James Bond Island was a memorable experience! The island's dramatic limestone cliffs and emerald-green waters created a truly stunning and picturesque setting. It's easy to see why it became a famous film location. The boat ride to the island was smooth and offered breathtaking views of the surrounding seascape.

We went out on a boat with a large group of people. The local travel agency that provided the service was very professional. The tour leader provided every detail and was very attentive. Lunch on the boat is also nice. There will be a dedicated person to paddle the canoe during the canoe trip, so we can concentrate on taking pictures
