Posted on AmandaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Todo el personal muy atentos y amables. Fuimos 8 e hicimos snorkel solo nosotros, la experiencia fue increíble, pasamos una mañana estupenda. Muchas gracias!!Posted on Lucia Gil ManzanaresTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fuimos 8 amigos en octubre. A primera hora de la mañana. Tuvimos la suerte de hacer el tour solos, y aunque lo habíamos reservado en inglés los guías eran españoles y nos hicieron el tour en español. Los guías estupendos ( alex y paula) muy amables y pendientes de nosotros todo el rato, y el capitán Edmund también muy amable. Después de echar toda la mañana con ellos nos invitaron a un vinito. Buenísima experiencia, muy recomendable .Posted on João RodriguesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Escolhi a experiência de fazer caiaque ao redor da ilha e foi incrível! 2h dá mais que tempo para ir e voltar com calma, fazer snorkel e andar à volta da ilha. É muito lindo e o staff é super simpático.Posted on Diaconu StefanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing experience!
