Det var en mycket bra utflykt med trevlig personal. Klipporna var fantastiska. Delfinerna syntes tyvärr inte till. Om delfinerna synts till hade utflykten fått 10/10

The guides were knowledgeable, multilingual and super friendly. Also helpful with sea sickness! The trip was really special and we were lucky to get to see a big pod of dolphins. The driver expertly navigated the caves. It was just magical!

Leider konnten wir die Tour nicht machen, da wir auch nach einer Stunde den Treffpunkt nicht finden konnten. Eine bessere Erklärung wäre nötig gewesen! Man geht nicht davon aus, dass dieser Veranstalter so weit vom Schuss liegt!
