NONE of what was sold was delivered. Wrong type of boat, wrong food, not an open bar, and the crew lied about conversion rate for over charged pictures. NOTHING was accurate in the description including activities. Waste of money
Hello! Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. We'd like to provide some clarification on a few points. Unfortunately, the boat change was beyond our control, as it was a last-minute logistical decision made by the boat's crew. Regarding the photo sales, please note that these are handled directly between the boat and the client, and we have no influence over the pricing. We recommend keeping an eye on the exchange rate when making any additional purchases on board. We understand that the unexpected boat change may have caused some inconvenience, and we apologize for any disruption it may have caused. In recognition of the situation, we offered you a compensation package, which you declined. Please know that our team works tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure a smooth and enjoyable tour experience, despite any unforeseen challenges that may arise. We appreciate your understanding.
Excellent for the price! Visit the nopalera beach and Isla Marietta! You need to know how to swim!!!
Thanks for the rave review! We're stoked you thought our tour was excellent value for the price. Nopalera Beach and Isla Marietas are definitely highlights - and great reminder about knowing how to swim, safety first! We'll keep sharing that important tip with our guests. Thanks for choosing us, and we hope to take you on another amazing adventure soon! :)
Until we were heading back and the guys wanted a tip, there was no interaction. We were asked if there were any dietary requirements and we said 1 x vegetarian and 1 x no fish. Neither of these options were given. The food was the most basic we've ever had on an excursion. The 'catamaran' wasn't good. No side tarps to shield us from the weather. No music on the boat whilst we were docked. We wouldn't book with this company again. Waste of money.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about your recent catamaran excursion with us. We sincerely apologize for the aspects of your experience that did not meet your expectations. We appreciate your feedback about the interaction and dietary requirements. It's our aim to provide a seamless and enjoyable experience, and it's clear that we fell short in this instance. Please know that we take your comments seriously and will use them to improve our services. We continuously strive to enhance our offerings. Thank you for your valuable feedback, and we wish you memorable and enjoyable travels in the future.
