We had an amazing trip! We went to spread my mother-in-law’s ashes. From beginning to end, the crew was an amazing. They were accommodating of my son with special needs. We enjoyed snorkeling, dolphin watching, and the natural pool. Hubby is making plans to return!!! Oh, and don’t forget the music! Thank you for such a wonderful trip! Muchísimas gracias por atendernos con paciencia y amor♥️

Eh

The booking said three hours, but we were on the boat for about an hour and a half maybe two hours. I wouldn’t have expected them to include the 30 min drive both ways…. That’s not the excursion. We couldn’t have drinks until we were at the first stop which was frustrating. They said there were two stops but the second was just the first place we disembarked from, didn’t really count as a second stop in my opinion. Too many pictures and then asked $155 for them at the end and made us feel bad about not wanting to spend that much. Tell us up front how much and then we will let you know if we need you to take pics. There was a very noticeable attitude change. The crew was nice enough but i expected more for a private rental.
