An awesome time!

The entire experience was amazing! Everyone at TM Tours was super helpful and accomodating! I also loved how respectful they were of the wildlife :) Overall amazing experience!

Catamarran to island was nice.

They charged for snorkeling that was included in my trip. They failed to respond to my inquiry.

Operator response

Thank you for your feedback, but it seems there’s a mix-up with the company. We operate speed boats, not catamarans, and unlike Bay Island, snorkeling is always included in our price. We’d love to show you the true TM Tours experience sometime! without crowds!

No body turned up with no notice only knew when wanting that trip advisor sent and e mail to say a refund was on way back realky disappointed

Operator response

Dear jeff, We are sorry that you did not realize that your reservation was not accepted. When the tour is oversold, TripAdvisor automatically sent an email notifying a full refund of your booking cause your reservation was not accepted. We know this can be frustrating and we are sorry, but we guarantee that our passengers enjoy a unique experience and we only achieve this by traveling in small groups. Next time we recommended to make your reservation in advance and not just a couple of hours before starting the activity.

Poor tour company

The tour was suddenly cancelled with no notice the day before! I checked with other vendors to see if they had any tours available, but they were all full because it was the day before.

Operator response

Dear Mr. Masashiro, I’m so sorry. We’re known for our exceptional attention and for deliver a great experience. As we inform you your booking was canceled automatically (immediately) because there were no more spots available on the tour for that day. As a responsible company we don't oversold the tour. We hope to have the opportunity to share our little island paradise with your lovely family on next time.
