Awesome boat trip
We booked on the front with boatrips eu, the lady was lovely and so good with my son who was a bit scared to go. We walked maybe 5 or so minutes to the boat and was greeted by jack our captain and guide and his 2nd in command Bia. We were given life jackets and set off. It was Amazing from start to finish. Lots of facts and interesting info and just a lovely fun atmosphere thanks to jack and Bia. We all loved it and would highly recommend this trip.

Nice experience!
We didn't have so high expectations for this trip, but the experienced captain and the enthusiastic guide (Hugo) managed to prove otherwise. All in all nice experience.
